     The identification of Michael as the child of Michael Devine and Ellen McGarry is based partly on finding online Tree on Ancestry which gives this information but primarily on the finding of Michael in the home of his cousin, Mrs McCarthy, in Chicago on the 1910 US Census. Also present there was Mrs McCarthy's brother Michael McGarry while Michael Devine is listed as a nephew. As this is consistent with his mother being a McGarry, it is taken that this is the correct man.
