After a 5 year search for the family of my great-grandfather I still have found no information as to his extended family and ancestors. Please find the few details that I have listed in this message. If anyone has any ideas of where I might go from here, or have access to any records, I would so greatly appreciate your assistance. My grandmother, daughter of my great-grandfather and the only surviving sibling, turned 90 this week and it was my goal to have this information about her father's family to her in time for her birthday and I feel so horrible that I was not able to find the information. Here is what little information I know: Name: John Patrick Joseph Fahey Birth: March 25, 1870 Galway Mother Name: Mary Kathleen O'Connell (Fahey) Father Name: Patrick or Joseph Fahey Immigration to the United States in the early to mid 1870's. My great grandfather had a falling out with his family and never saw them or spoke to the during the entire life of my grandmother so my information is very limited beyond what I have provided. Any and all assistance would be so greatly appreciated. I have contemplated hiring a professional researcher in Ireland to assist, so any hints on recommendations for that would also be appreciated.
