Hi all, I just changed my email address. I see I missed a message about the Heaney's. My husband's great great great grandmother was, Ann Heaney was married to a Simon Mullen. His great great grandmother Ann Mullen, born to Simon and Ann was from Ardagh or Letterfrack. She ( the daughter) was born about 1859. I have estimated her mother as having been born approx 1839. Do you have any known siblings for Martin? I have not made much attempt to search back further on her line -yet- as other family lines have me busy (I have some very elderly family members and I'm trying to do those lines so I can ask them questions as they come up and let them know what I find out.) But this my attention. Cathy are you saying there were no Heaneys in Galway back then? I know that Connemarra was settled when the government moved people there but not much more about it. Can anyone add to this? I'll do some research but won't be able to do it til next week. Cheryl
-Boy, I wish I could add more but will be looking forward to other folks' posts. Can anyone tell me more about when folks moved/were moved into the Ballyconneely area beyond Roundstone? david -----Original Message----- From: Cheryl Dynan [mailto:cdynan@rcn.com] Sent: Friday, October 22, 2004 9:08 PM To: IRL-GALWAY-L@rootsweb.com Subject: [GALWAY] Heaney Family Hi all, I just changed my email address.
