I assume you've searched the Killian RC parish records for the baptisms of Honora and Bridget. Since parish records listed only baptisms and marriages (and sometimes funerals) and civil records, beginning in 1864, only births, marriages, and deaths, it's unlikely that there would be any records of the girls between their baptisms and their coming to America. Unfortunately, passenger lists are pretty spotty, especially for that era and for children who may have been travelling with adults of a different surname, perhaps a married aunt and her husband. The family was quite lucky to have been reunited, as many families separated during the famine were not. Diane

I keep forgetting about Jane Lyons from Dublin and all the records she has looked at and has transcribe http://www.from-ireland.net/parishrecords/gal/galwayrcindex.htm On Dec 30, 2008, at 4:29 PM, [email protected] wrote: > Killian RC parish records
