Surnames: Nolan Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/wd3.2ACIB/941.1.1.1.1 Message Board Post: I have a great-grand uncle named James Nolan, born in 1887 in Borissokane, County Tipperary, Ireland. His father was Patrick Nolan, his mother was Maria (or possibly Mary) Casey. He came to New York (as did all his siblings except Michael) around 1903-1905. Have been unable to discover anything further about him or his descendants, although I have a great deal of reliable, documented info. about some of his siblings and their descendants. Perhaps he is one of the two James mentioned in this thread? Could you tell me what else is known about your James? I would be delighted if we have a match.
