My name is Birgitta Nilsson and I am living in Sweden. I am trying to find my mothers grandfather's background in Ireland. I am searching for a Susan (ne) Irwin(e) and her husband John Moran working as a gardener in northern Ireland and Ireland. I have found her in a passagerlist for US: Arrival Date: 9 Sep 1896 Age: 50 years Estimated Birth Year: 1846 Gender: Female Port of Departure: Londonderry, Ireland Ship Name: Peruvian Port of Arrival: Boston, Massachusetts Friend's Name: Irwin Moran Last Residence: Belfast Microfilm Roll Number: 22 also Emily Florence Moran age 18 infant Erwin Moran age 11 months Susan says going to "son Irwin Moran in Beverley, Mass". Emily and infant Erwin say going to "brother Irwin in Beverley Mass. The spelling of the infant "Erwin", is as shown in the record. My Susan Irwin and John Moran got their first child George Moran in Cookstown 21th of December 1869(in civil registration 1:573 1870) with mother Susan Irvine and father John Moran. Their next son Irvine (Irwin) was born 25 th of January 1872 in Bryanstown, Ardee, Ireland(my mothers grandfather). I know they got at least two girls more. Carolina "Carry" Moran born in Kildare, Ireland the 24:th of February 1875 with mother Susan Irwin and father John Moran and Emily Florence Moran born 4th of February 1878 in Omagh, Tyrone in Northern Ireland(Omagh volym 2 pg 307). I have a picture of two of Irwins sistera and also one of Irwin Moran born 1872 I haven't found the wedding registration for Susan Irwin and John Moran and can not go longer back so-is there anyone that can help me with any information about those people? There is a Susanna Irwin born 23th July 1841 with father David and a Susan Irwin born 15th February 1841 with father Tomas. Can one of those girls be the Susan (ne) Irwin(e) I am looking for? Can it be Susan Irwin with father Tomas or David that is "my" Susan Irwin? Greetings from Birgitta Nilsson Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
