There is a question whether she was born in New York or Ireland and the year either 1817 or 1827. The 1880 US Census taken in Paterson, New Jersey on June 9, 1880 lists Agnes and her parents as being born in Ireland and Agnes as 62 years old. Strangely next door is George Brown age 50 in real estate and Mary A Brown with daughter Ella -not Hurd -maybe he's the brother of Agnes but he claims to have both his parents born in England.
