My great-great grandparents came from Ireland. Have no idea where in Ireland. And I can not find him in any passenger list. I don't even know when. He took land out in 1849 in Wisconsin. I don't even know true birth date of him. He gained 14 years in one census to the next. His name was Daniel Mulhair/Mulhare, he married Anne Cullen in the United States. thanks

My 3rd great-grandparents were Thomas HANLEY and Bridget WHITE. They married in Ireland (county unknown) where their first-born son, Patrick, was born on March 17, 1847. They immigrated to the USA about 1848-49, where they settled in Albany, New York for about a year or so. They moved to Milwaukee, Wisconson in time to be counted in the 1850 Census. They had six more children in Milwaukee. Bridget died before 1860 and Thomas cannot be found after the 1860 census. The children scattered to Minneapolis, Minnesota and Chicago, Illinois. I only have names for two other sons - James HANLEY and Michael HANLEY, my 2nd great-grandfather. Michael HANLEY married Hannah MCDONALD in Minneapolis, Minnesota. One or two HANLEY children may have stayed in Milwaukee. Patrick HANLEY worked for several railroads and settled in Homestead, Pennsylvania, near Pittsburgh. He married Margaret BARRETT. The Hanley's may have immigrated through Canada, as they are not found in any U. S. passenger lists.

Hello, I sent a message, but not sure where it went so hope this isn't a duplicate. I am looking for information on my great great grandparents, Michael Skiffington/Mary Quinn. I believe they married in Ireland, but don't know where in Ireland they came from. I have been unable to find them on passenger lists but know in 1847 they were living in Philadelphia, PA. He was born about 1823 and had brothers Felix, Francis and Bernard. Mary also born about 1823. I believe she had a brother John. I know this is like looking for a needle in a haystack, but am hoping someone somewhere has seen the name Skiffington and will breat thru my brick wall. Thank you for any help

Anyone who has any helpful information please contact me.

im looking for any information on the hollywood familys of forkhill mullaghbawn

I have recently been compiling my brother-in-law's tree and almost all branches of his family came to England from Ireland between 1800 and 1841, mostly from the south but exactly where is not known. There are a few known to be from Dublin.

I understand that most of the records prior to 1864 have been destroyed and it appears to me that there are very few published indexes, particularly on the internet, prior to that date. Can someone tell me if this is true, because if so it would make it pretty well impossible for someone who is non-resident in Ireland to trace families.

Hi my interest in Ireland is the morris family who came from county Limerick & bridget Mcdonald who came from dublin

My great grandmother was Ellen LEAHY born around 1850 in CORK. Her father was Michael LEAHY a farmer and her mother as yet unknown. She met and married my ggrandfather William HUGHES whilst he was serving in the Royal Engineers, British Army. He helped construct Cork Harbour and Camden Fort.
They married at St Finnbarr's south chapel in 1871, then moved to England when he had served his time in the RE and settled initially in Birmingham. William eventually became a professional photographer. I've been unable to find a record of Ellen's birth though so any help appreciated. Nice to meet you all.

David, WOW! That is great that you have been able to go back to Ireland. All I know about Thomas Kennedy is that he came from Ireland. I have no records of when he arrived.

Anyone know about the surname MUCKLEHONE? I have some information on a relative:

John Mucklehone came into the province of Ontario about 1785 with his wife, Elizabeth, and three children. John Mucklehone had come from Ireland to the U.S. (N.Y. State). At the end of the Revolutionary War he immigrated with his family to Welland Co. around 1785.

Is Mucklehone an English-type version of an Irish surname or is it just very rare?

Hi Listers,

My main interest is with the Bradner Family name but I am also researching a Hugh Corrigan who immigrated to Quebec, Canada before 1860. As a result I have collected information on a total of four Corrigan branches that came to the province about the same time but I have not linked them. Anyone reseaching these Corrigans?

Cheers Bernie
