He is my wife's grandfather.Michael Joseph Garvey married Eleanor mary Huntsman in South Shields County Durham, England in 1921, he was born about 1897, his father's name was Michael Joseph Garvey, occupation farmer. There has never been any explanation for his disappearance. My wife's grandmother Eleanor Mary visited Michael Joseph Garvey's extended family near Ballina in 1936 and again in 1939 and there may have been other occasions.The only clue I have is that Eleanor Mary Garvey recieved a letter from a Mrs John Moran dated 7th January 1946, the address of the Moran family was Baralty, Glenamoy,Ballina,Co Mayo. If anybody has any information about the Moran family at the above address I would be grateful. Thankyou. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
