Listers, My mother's grandmother's maiden was Margaret Brady. According to family history, Margaret was born in Conty Mayo, Ireland on 31 May 1873. She married William Walsh in Chicago on 13 April 1895. The marriage certificate gives his name as William J. Welch 35 years old and her name as Maggie Brady 22 years old. They had four children: William, Margaret (my grandmother), Catherine, and Thomas. William, Jr. died in WWI aboard a ship (the Von Steuben). Thomas died at an early age - not sure of what. In the 1900 Census, William J. is listed with his wife, Margaret Brady, and his children and mother. However, the surname changed from Welch to Walsh in this census. In the previous census, they are Welch. Margaret Walsh married Edwin Columbus O'Toole. They had 2 daughters - Margaret (my mother) and Joan. I am looking for any Brady connections to Margaret or Maggie. I have no information regarding her parents at all. P.S. Catherine married William O'Connor. Any help would be appreciated. Bill Karr in Peoria, IL., USA

I am looking for more info on my great-grandmother's parents. Mary Catherine McNulty born in Ballina 3 October 1864 to Patrick McNulty and Sarah Mildred Gillard. I have little if any info on my maternal grt-grt-grandparents. Rick Shea

You need to go through the parish registers. Some years ago the parish registers for Kiltimagh and Claremorris were posted on their mailing lists (and will be in their archives) at Rootsweb.com (several years each day). But beware of typos and misreadings. There were Costello families in both of those parishes. You can see the microfilms of the parish records for yourself at LDS. The individuals who have web sites generally post ONLY THEIR OWN relatives, not everyone in the parish, as you can understand. ----- Original Message ----- From: Lynne To: mayo@rootsweb.com Sent: Tuesday, February 20, 2007 7:40 AM Subject: Re: [MAYO] Costello surname in Mayo James McNulty wrote: >Is there any reference to a Partick Costello m.

If you find a mistake or want to change your information, please submit a new form and put 'change' in the field where you want the change. If you email address has changed, don't forget to also change it. -- Pat Connors, Sacramento CA http://www.connorsgenealogy.com

And speaking of new lists, here's another one that may be of interest to you: "GEN-WEB-SITES -- a mailing list on which subscribers can discuss the merits (or otherwise) of any and all genealogical web sites." At the moment, the information page and subscription links are at http://lists.rootsweb.com/index/other/Miscellaneous/GEN-WEB-SITES.html If you can't find the information at that URL, try clicking on Mailing Lists at the top of any RootsWeb page and perhaps the new, handy dandy list search engine will be able to locate the list's info page for you.

I'll keep my fingers crossed for you that RootsWeb fixes that soon. Good luck with the list! Best wishes, Lynne

I am trying to trace my families roots in Ireland and the very small amount of information I have is that My 3rd Great Grandfather Anthony Brogan came from Mayo in Ireland he was born c1800 and Married a Bridget born c1805 they were both Roman Catholic They had 5 children Margaret born C1830, Bridget born c1831, Barbara born c1836 James born c1837 and Mary born c1845 Some time between 1845 and 1851 they moved to York in England Francis White who was my 2nd Great Grandfather also came from Mayo and the only information I have on him is that he was born c1834 and his fathers name was James White I apologise that the information is very vague but this is all I have to go on at present, Is there any information available for Migrants from the Potato Famine who moved over to England ?? Any information on these families would be greatly appreciated Thank you so much in advance Tracey

Thanks Lynn, for announcing this list. However, as you can see by the name (New-England-Irishnew-England-Irish), Rootsweb has named it wrong and for over a week they have been working on correcting the name which should be: New-England-Irish It is now listed in the index in Other under Ethnic-Irish Lists and it even has it's own webpage with the correct name but it is not working yet. If you subscribe, you will get it back saying 'no such address'. I have been trying to get Rootsweb to fix it for over a week, without much success. So if you want to join the list, check it again next week and maybe by then it will be corrected. The webpage is currently listed at: http://lists.rootsweb.com/index/other/Ethnic-Irish/NEW-ENGLAND-IRISH.html -- Pat Connors, Sacramento CA http://www.connorsgenealogy.com
