Hi Janice, I don't have anything specific to contribute to your history, but here is some additional info. My grandparents were married in Waterbury, CT, in 1899. There were many Bergins in Waterbury although I do not know which, if any, were related to my grandmother, Mary Bergin Carey. In fact, two of the mayors of Waterbury were Edward Bergin and his son Edward Bergin. In your history though, your grandfather John Bergin settled in PA while your g-grandfather Martin Parkinson immigrated to Waterbury.

My g-uncle immigrated to Australia and looking for his records has been extremely difficult. Do you know where your g-uncles settled in Australia? Thanks..........Marg

Thanks..........Marg What State did your g-Uncles go to? I have BDM records for NSW and could do some searching for you if you like to give more details and haven't already searched NSW BDMs? In fact, did you know you can search for yourself - they are online at http://www.bdm.nsw.gov.au/ Regards Pamela An Aussie transplanted to Rotorua, NZ.
