They had 8 sons and 2 daughters. One was William who was born about 1782 and had a farm near Carrick on the Shannon. William married Elizabeth Saddler (Sadler?) about 1818. Elizabeth was the daughter of John Saddler and his wife Ellen Boone Saddler. William and Elizabeth sold their property about 1846 and went to America. We also have a mention of an Uncle Francis but not as to whom he was uncle to. Williams daughter Mary Ann had married a William Taylor. They stayed in Ireland until about 1849 and then came to America. This information came from Family stories and we are looking to find facts to back it up. Any information or ideas on where to find information would be greatly appreciated. Mary Gates-Ohio-USA
