Thomas L Bohan tbohan2@maine.rr.com 2073181170 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Dear Liz—My great-grandmother was Anastasia Russell, born in Templetouhy about 1795. She wed Michael Bohan of Collegehill (Templemore) in 1820 and emigrated to America (Wisconsin) in 1846 with her 9 children, including her youngest, my grandfather Edmond Russell Bohan, 1839-1905. FWIW.—Tom P.S. They went directly to Wisconsin because her Russell relatives (including Patrick, of singer Tom Russell fame) had gone there in 1841.

I have no access to, say, Killaloe records, so I am going to be of no help to you. Really sorry.
