I have not found any descendants that have trees on this family but I have put the family together. I wish my family was a easy as this family to find.
Michael J Coyne b 04 Nov 1862, Floughena, County Mayo, Ireland
Died 31 Mar 1934 San Antonio, Bexar, Texas
Father James Coyne, Mother Ann Freely
His Death Certificate from Family Record Search:
Jane Henry Coyne B 1875 County Sligo, Ireland
died 08 Feb 1949 San Antonio, Bexar, Texas
Father James Henry
Ah ha....the tombstone....
Janes's death certificate is not available but the summary was.
There is a Freely buried next to them will be investigating.
This is the family in 1920 and 1930 I did not find them in 1900, although the census says they came in about 1889ish
Something I have learned about the Irish immigrant. They were proud of their family and shared with their family where they came from and the family left behind. When I have found their death certificates, everything is filled out, not like my Missouri ancestors who couldn't even get their grandmother's name right.
As we push through the garden gate of the old homestead, we are surprised at how much smaller things are than we remembered them, and how much work needs to be done. -The Hummer-

Tombstone Tuesday Sad Cemetery
I am working on adding this and other tombstones to Find A Grave.
I was appalled at the condition of St Mary's Cemetery in San Antonio. We will be looking at the Texas Historical Commission's Recovering a Forgotten Cemetery, to get organized for helping this little cemetery in the middle of San Antonio. TX.
This Person is not in any family trees I have found so far. I had to clear in front of this, and still missed the 1934 death date for Michael J Coyne.
