Saint Rose cemetery is about 3 miles NW of the town of Waucoma. It is on 306th St, between X Ave and Xavier Rd.

Their family lived in nearby Chickasaw County in 1860. Death records may be there.

The Michael Mahoney family was on the next page. Iowa was part of Wisconsin at one time.

Quite a bit of variation on their ages from census to census.

Iowa began recording vitals in 1880, so you may not find a death record for Michael. However, there likely was a probate record for Michael when he died. That should be in the clerk of court's office in Chickasaw county. It should give a date of death, and list his heirs names and locations.
