In researching my Foleys from County Clare I have found a Riordan link. My great great grandmother Elizabeth FOLEY (married surname - born 1832) was the daughter of a John CAHILL and a mother Mary RIORDAN both from Clare. I am in the process of obtaining civil war pension information on Elizabeth's husband which should pinpoint an area in Clare for me to focus my search. Where do your Riordans originate from? Meg
