In his obituary, it stated: "Mr. Nolan was born in the parish of Killiane County Galway, Ireland, in 1827 and came to this country early in 1849" However, on his death certificate it stated he was born in 1822. Catherine NAUGHTON was his wife. I have been unable to find anything (other than the ship records) showing where he came from in Ireland. Thanks! Tom Novak
