My great grandfather was John Joseph Cunningham, from Castlenageeha, Kilcummin but left Mayo in 1880. He married a Rose Ratchford in Scranton PA - but Rose's father was James but written as Roughneen in Ireland - he was from the Ballina area. I have created a small Roughneen / Rochford / Ratchford family group on Facebook, if you are interested - we've collected a large number different family groups here. https://www.facebook.com/groups/ratchford/ John Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
