Hi Jo Dell - Were you asking about emigration from Ireland to England to work in ore mines circa 1870s-1880s? Where were the mines located, do you know?

It concerned a tragedy which took place there. I have his address if you want to puchase a copy. Not sure what type of data you are exactly looking.

This is what I think I know. Andrew Nolan was born Nov. 1856 Ireland. Margaret Moore born July 1861 Ireland. It looks like they married in Cumbria, Cumberland, England 1880 and that he worked in an ore mine. First son was born in Cumbria, Cumberland, England 1880, John Joseph Nolan Aug. 19, 1881. Andrew did not have enough money to bring everyone to America, so he came himself and sent money to them to come. Second son was born on boat coming to America, Patrick J. Nolan 1883. The family was upset, as U.S. immigration says he and older son are English, not Irish. They settled in the Centralia, PA area. Andrew died 1907 not naturalized. FAmily moved to Philadelphia. I have them from 1900 on....with some missing pieces. _________________________________________________________________ Windows Live™ Hotmail®…more than just e-mail. http://windowslive.com/howitworks?ocid=TXT_TAGLM_WL_t2_hm_justgotbetter_howitworks_012009

In my research of mining people that left Ireland and went to Cumberland I have found that they came from the mining area of Avoca In Co Wicklow Ireland so wondering if this may be where your family came from allowing also that the next County of Carlow also had a lot of Nolan people living in it. But mining was carrried on as you know in several places in Ireland Co Wicklow Co Wexford Mining for different ores. Just a thought no harm done in saying this I hope Cheers Cara ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jo Dell Carlson" <jodellcarlson@hotmail.com> To: <ireland@rootsweb.com> Sent: Sunday, January 25, 2009 9:56 AM Subject: Re: [IRELAND] Post Famine Emigration from Ireland to Glasgow,Scotland -- Book Review (2003) This is what I think I know.
