    3. Hello list, I am new to this list and this is my first post. All of the information I have been able to find only states "Ireland" - no county or parish - however an elderly cousin still in Scotland thinks that Roscommon rings a bell - so I am hoping. I am searching for an Andrew Rorke (Coachman) who married a Winifred McMannus (not sure when or where) they had one son that I know of an Andrew Rorke born circa 1818. This Andrew married a Mary Mullrayne (Mullraine) or (Mullrain) and together they had at least 5 children - Helen b circa 1839; Mary b circa 1841; Jane b circa 1844; James b 1852 and Michael b 1854/5. Andrew and Mary together with some of their family immigrated to Edinburgh Scotland somewhere between 1844 and 1854. With their last child being born in Scotland. I am hoping that someone might be researching either Rorke or McMannus or Mullrayne family names and might be able to help me. Surely Andrew b circa 1818 would have had siblings ??? I have found a Winifrida McManus baptised 11.6.1794 at Boyle, Rosscommon, daughter of Thomas McManus and Brigida O'Brien - is anyone researching this family - maybe there is a link ?? Keeping my fingers crossed. Cheers Angie. Andrea Roberts.....in Melbourne, Australia ------------------------------------------ walrob@melbpc.org.au <----- Using my Husbands internet account.
