William Dwyer was born around 1864 in Kildare, the son of Owen Dwyer - Owen may possibly have originated from Wexford, but am unsure. Patt Dwyer was possibly his brother, though am not sure. Their name has been variously transcribed as Dwyer, Wyer and Wyes in various documents. William Dwyer married Bridget Callan in February 1885 in the Parish of Allen, and they then came over to England and settled in Wigan, Lancashire where they had 6 children - Bridget, Margaret, William, Catherine, Owen and John Joseph. I am trying to trace the family further back in Ireland now - and would welcome any contact from anyone who knows anything about the Dwyer (or Callan) families and could help me out... With thanks and best wishes Kitty Dwyer, Bolton, England Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
