He was the only Byrne form around Cashel in the family that di so. I have a letter form about 1970 that was written to my aunt. My grandmother was Mary Josephine Byrne form Cashel . her father was john . There were 9 or so Byrne children in 1922 census in Cashel. John married Johanna Corcoran . johns brother went to America but the family lost touch at some point. Your Christopher may be Johns Brother. I went to Cashel in the late 70's and met some of the family. My grandmother lived to 103, she came here on her own in 1924 as a servant . they were a poor family, and although kindly were quite simple. Granma was educated in convent in Ireland and her sister went to England and one sister to south Africa. They all lives around Cashel and Clonmel. be interesting to see if there are any matches. regards annie Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
