Sue, At my website (http://nolanfamilies.org) in the Family Stories section I have a "story" relating to the Michael Nolan of Madison, Wisconsin, mentioned in your Email. Here is what I have: "1864 : Madison, WI -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [171] Michael Nolan (c1838- ????) - from Co. Carlow?, IE [172] unknown (???? - ????) - from Unknown Children: Henry T. (c1886) and Elizabeth (c1898), both born in Wisconsin According to the 1910 US census Michael immigrated in 1864 and married in the US since, in the 1880 census for Madison, he is listed as single working as a farmhand for Edward G. Hayden. Michael had at least two children, Henry T. and Elizabeth, as listed in the 1910 census and, by then, his wife had died. According to 1902 and 1905 immigration records for a Joseph Aghney, Michael was an uncle to Joseph and Thomas Aughney, the latter living on Monmouth St. in New Jersey. In 1905, Joseph's last residence had been Tullow in Co. Carlow, Ireland. >From the foregoing I see that you might want to pick up the Aughney trail in Tullow, Co. Carlow (according to 1905 record) and in the US in New Jersey (Monmouth Street).

Thanks, Roger! Yes, I have all the info on Joseph and Thomas, brothers and sons of Michael and Catherine (McDonald) Aughney. Joseph returned from Wisc. to live with Thomas and married in Jersey City. Joe and his wife are buried in Holy Name Cemetery there. I was trying to make sure it was the same Joseph. So now, from what I can deduce... since their mother's maiden name was McDonald, and grandmother on the Aughney side was Cummins, there are no Nolans in the bunch. For Mike Nolan to be their Uncle, he would likely then have married a sister to their father, i.e. ___ Aughney, or to their mother, i.e. ___ McDonald. I only have one daughter for Michael Aughney, and she married Thomas Bulger. Unfortunately, the Tullow parish records for the time period when this woman would have been born are apparently gone, and not part of what is currently on microfilm, so there may be more children. I don't know any info on Catherine McDonald's family. So I guess I will have to do some research in Wisconsin! If I find anything I'll let you know. -----Original Message----- From: irl-carlow-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:irl-carlow-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Roger Nowlan Sent: Monday, May 10, 2010 12:52 PM To: irl-carlow@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [IRL-CARLOW] Nolan immigration to Sue, At my website (http://nolanfamilies.org) in the Family Stories section I have a "story" relating to the Michael Nolan of Madison, Wisconsin, mentioned in your Email.

the one daughter may have married twice. also - they may have referred to this man as uncle so as to provide a "sponsor" to enter the country, or called him uncle out of respect for their elders - it was common in ireland for people to call elders aunt or uncle but would know they were not blood related. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Sue Clement" <sneirish@comcast.net> To: irl-carlow@rootsweb.com Sent: Monday, 10 May, 2010 18:40:31 GMT +00:00 GMT Britain, Ireland, Portugal Subject: Re: [IRL-CARLOW] Nolan immigration to Thanks, Roger!

Yes, thank you. I did consider both of those possibilities. I guess I feel that I need to explore and rule out All the possibilities of relationship before I can say it was a title of respect, though that may certainly be what we end up with in the end. -----Original Message----- From: irl-carlow-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:irl-carlow-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of annagolan@eircom.net Sent: Tuesday, May 11, 2010 6:16 PM To: irl-carlow@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [IRL-CARLOW] Nolan immigration to the one daughter may have married twice. also - they may have referred to this man as uncle so as to provide a "sponsor" to enter the country, or called him uncle out of respect for their elders - it was common in ireland for people to call elders aunt or uncle but would know they were not blood related.
