Hey Corky; Just wanted you to know that your little bit of info from "Griffith's" about William and Matthew Lenaghen of Down County has born fruit already. I received a snail mail query. Posted here. "I am writing to you about a story you wrote about Patrick Lenaghen in Castlewellan, Co., Down Ireland. He came to Clinton County New York. There he married Julia Wells and together they raised a family of which some stayed in New York and I believe It was Halsey Lenaghen (It was Fred. Henry) who moved to Idaho. I have been researching the family of Patrick C. Lenaghen born 1820 of New Castlewellan and in 1855 came to New York. Within that year moved to then Clinton Co., IOWA. He married Margery Carney and raised 12 children. His father which would have been the Patrick Lenaghen that was the father of Patrick born 1800 and moved to Clinton Co., NEW YORK (My ancestor). I have a lot of information on the family in Ireland. If you can help with these connections please write me. I would like to know who the rest of Matthew's & Patrick's brothers and sisters were. I have a few of them. He gives snail mail address so I will forward any help this query generates. Thanks G. Humphries.
