HIGGINS

Hello

I am looking for descendants of JAMES HIGGINS and BRIDGET GRIFFIN who married in KILMOVEE RC CHURCH, Co MAYO, IRELAND in 1857. They had a son JAMES HIGGINS born 10th June 1871.

I think JAMES HIGGINS born 1871 maybe my grandfather who went to Prescot. Lancashire, England prior to 1901 and married MARY ELLEN DONNELLY of Waterford Ireland in Prescot in 1902. In 1905 they went to Liverpool, Lancashire, England to live where both James & Mary Ellen died.

JAMES (Snr) & BRIDGET HIGGINS were living at UGGOOL, Kilmovee, Co Mayo in 1901.

In 1911 Bridget is a Widow still living in UGGOOL. Kilmovee but she has her 7 year old grandson JOHN HIGGINS born in England living with her.

My Dad's brother JOHN HIGGINS born 1903 in Prescot, Lancashire, England is missing from the family on the 1911 UK Census.

This is the reason I think this HIGGINS family may be my ancestors.

I would love to hear from any HIGGINS's from around Uggool or Egool as I think it is called now in Kilmovee, County Mayo

Regards

Pat Berry (nee Higgins)

Sorry, Pat. I have no info on your people.

Good luck, and I'll keep you in mind as I continue my research.
