Could we give Shearer/Souder a hand with this question?

 

• Shearer/Souder
• My grandfather, Manuel Green, was born in Scranton, Pa. His mother was Elizabeth (Lizzie Brennan). The family later moved to Phila.,Pa. the Dead End is my grandfather always said his first cousi was Cardinal Francis Brennan, who was born in Shenandoah, Pa. My mother and grandfather went to the Cardinal's funeral Mass and spoke to some of his family, but never recorded how the two are. related. I even spoke to one of the Cardinam’s nieces about the relationship, but she did not have an answer. I recently found out that the Cardinal’s grandfather, James D. Brennan (1833-1877) was married to Mary Russell Brennan (1843-1914.Mary married Another Brennan and they had four children. I have been unable to find this second husbands name. I have not been able to find this name and I can only assume this is why I can’t find the relationship between my grandfather and the Cardinal. Contact me at ts233@aol.com if you have any solutions.

Maybe this will help ... however the dates don’t match what we were given so that may be why
