Have you contacted the Franklin County Historical Society? I was in Malone several years ago with time to kill so even though I didn't have a known connection to Franklin County, I stopped in and looked into my Ryans who came to NY and PA through Canada. They were very helpful and I did find some interesting coincidences. http://www.franklinhistory.org/ Margaret On Oct 12, 2009, at 3:01 AM, ny-irish-request@rootsweb.com wrote: > > Message: 5 > Date: Sun, 11 Oct 2009 21:56:36 -0400 > From: "Clare Higgins" <clarehiggins@comcast.net> > Subject: [NY-IRISH] Moira > To: <ny-irish@rootsweb.com> > Message-ID: <0049A761B745415DBB2CDC422010BCE3@HIGGINS> > Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" > > Has anyone here ever traveled to Moira, Franklin County, NY?

Many thanks to Margaret Malloy, Judy Christopher and Birthsmile for all your help with my question about Moira. I've just sent an email to the Franklin County Historical Society and will write to the other places. Thanks again.
