Dear Dave, I do have a Mary Porter married Thomas Shannon in the early 1900's but although I know a lot about the Thomas Shannon and his mother who also came from Cty.Cavan named Kate McGovern, I have not had the chance to begin On the Porter name yet. I have never been able to find my own ggrandparents in Ireland, even though they came >From County Cavan also. I do remember visiting Tom and Mary in Dowling Street, Sydney when was a child. Many thanks for your URL's which I will investigate.
