Hi, please let me introduce myself, I have just joined this list. I am a very avid genealogist and have been researching for over two years. My husband's family has been traced back to Ireland so I thought I would join this list. John HORAN was born in LONGFORD in 1809 and he married Catherine HERNAN. Catherine was born in 1823 in Kings County (Offaly). They married in 1845 in Irishtown, Kings County (Offaly) in 1845. They emigrated to Australia in 1862 aboard the ship "Ocean Chief". They brought eight children with them, Matthew born 1845 Mary born 1846 Thomas born 1848 James born 1851 John born 1853 Anne born 1855 Mark born 1859 Kate Cecilia born 1860 - my husband's direct line.

Hello, I am trying to find any information on the family of my great- grandfather, Patrick REARDON, who supposedly was from County Longford, Ireland, and was born around 1855. He came to the US about 1889, when he was about 34 years of age. He settled in Paterson, N.J., where he was employed as a stone mason. His first wife's name was Nora/Hannah (?Hanorah) DONNELLY. I don't know if they married in Ireland or after he came to NJ. They had 2 children born in NJ, Mary and John. After his first wife died, he married a Mary DONOHUE, daughter of Thomas and Ann GLEESON. On the record of his 2nd marriage record, his parents are listed as Patrick REARDON and Ellen GORMAN. Supposed, he also had a sister, Kate or Katherine, and a brother, Michael. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Pat

Hi. Im researching Smith/Smyth in Tirlickeen townland. The family homestead is near Ballymahon. The earliest record I found was Andrew Smith, father of Michael. Michael was born around the famine. I found no marriage record in the parish register for Andrew but he was somebody's best man in the 1830's. On the Farrell side, my g-g-grandmother Rose Farrell was married in 1876 at age 21 to Michael Smith above. The marriage record lists her father as Patt. Farrell of Barry. Russ

Hi John, In reading your note to Bill I see that you "informally collect" info on Longford immigrants to the US. I recently found my gg grandparents grave in Calvary Cemetery, NY and on the tombstone it reads; " James Reynolds and Anna Marie Moore, natives of Lisagernal, County Longford. " Would you have come across either of these names from County Longford.? Just a longshot, but I thought I'd give it a try.......... thanks, Kay Cass ----- Original Message ----- From: <JOHNRID@aol.com> To: <IRL-LONGFORD-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Monday, January 03, 2000 7:37 PM Subject: Re: KIERNAN > Hi Bill, > Sorry I have no specific information on that Geoghan.
