Hello Pat, I don't know when Ellen HAGGERTY arrived in the US. The first spotting I had was when she married Carmelo RINADO (actually Rinaldo) on Dec. 06, 1857, Boston, MA., per Mass. Archives, Vol: 110; Page: 123, Line: 2197. That is where I learned her father's name, no mother's name given. Thank you for the four websites you provided.

I searched the Griffith's Valuation and there were over 100 William Haggertys, in many counties. You can search the index here: http://www.failteromhat.com/griffiths.htm Since you have the father's name and close year of birth, you might try this website. You can search free but if you find a record that you want to see, you have to pay for it. http://www.irishgenealogy.ie/frame_1024.cfm -- Pat Connors, Sacramento CA http://www.connorsgenealogy.com --------------------------------- Ahhh...imagining that irresistible "new car" smell?
