    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Author: BeaNicMal Surnames: Driscoll, Cadigan Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.driscoll/639.5/mb.ashx Message Board Post: Might this be your Ellen: http://churchrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/details/e26a7c0252607 and the marriage record: http://churchrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/details/11b8750350799 (Can you tell I'm just loving this database -- just found in this weekend). I have nothing on your family, the only common thing here is that my great-great grandmother was Bridget Driscoll (born 1837 to Denis Driscoll & Mary Cadigan, married Patrick Cadigan at Sacred Heart in Rath in 1858) A Mary Driscoll is a witness to your Ellen's marriage. Of course, the family is just loaded with Ellens, Marys, Bridgets, Johannas, as well as Johns, Michaels & Patricks. The only thing I have noticed is that one line seems to use Cornelius, Timothy, and Denis; and the other uses James. And just to add to the fun, it appears they all married one another frequently! I even found a reference to the original Cape Clear Driscolls all marrying each other (as well as the other Driscoll names, which include Cadigan, Bohane, Wholey, and a few others I can't think of right now). Best of luck to you. B~ Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
