Surnames: farrelly herrmann Classification: Queries Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/5dV.2ACEB/3.28.29.1 Message Board Post: Hello, Not sure if this is connection but my ggrandfather lived in Sharon, Mercer CO PA. This is very close to Meadville and I keep seeeing the Farrelly name from Meadville and wonder if there is any connection. My Thomas Farrelly was born in Virginia County Cavan 6/29/1863. His fathers name was Patrick Farrelly.Thomas Frances went to visit Patrick in Virginia Co.-- we only know this from a post card he sent with a picture of virginia cavan co church on the front. Thomas Farrelly had three children and one of them Edward farrelly was a lawyer. I am sure Patrick had more than one child, but have not yet found any brothers or sisters to Thomas Francis. smarx@stargate.net
