I'm quite proud of it, and I tell everyone :p I just find him so interesting, and I am always doing research on him. When I was little, my father, Kevin Morrissey would tell me a myth about him that he learned. About how John had the Saratoga gambling house built and he stole money from it and went back to Ireland. He buried it and died a week later. He knew it wasn't true, but he things its interesting. Just thought I'd give my two cents.

Looking for information on Michael christened 1836 in Castlecomer, married Anne Quigley and moved to NZ in 1873 with sons John and Michael. I believe Michael's father was Bryan, married to Catherine Beard (according to the IGI, but no dates). John had eleven children, one of whom, Michael Martin born about 1890, moved to Australia, and I believe died in Townsville, Queensland. If any of this sounds familiar, I'd be very pleased to hear from you. Thank you. Dorothy Morrissey Te Aroha, NZ Send instant messages to your online friends http://au.messenger.yahoo.com

Hi, Do you know if the family stayed in Limerick as we are descendants of Morrissey's from Limerick We can only trace ours back to 1852 when James Morrissey married Catherine O'Donnell. Their first child Michael was born there in 1853 and shortly after they came out to Australia arriving in Portland, Victoria. Regards, Lucille ----- Original Message ----- From: "Victor D.
