If not, do you happen to know Julia's last name -- his wife. If so I have a way to help try to narrow down to the right county. Many with our surname from Ireland are from the south central and southeast counties. There's a lot about this at the website I just linked to under Origins -- Irish. I hope my project can be of some help. Do you know what they knew or John emigrated? I could include him in our immigrants section (under Origins). Sincerely, Martha Bowes Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
