Hope we can connect. Cheers, Frank > ----- Original Message ----- > I've been trying to trace my Ulster O'Neills - from Tyrone, then Armagh & Down, for years, with no luck. My ggggrandfather was Hugh O'Neil (O'Neill) - born, I would guess in the 1790s. Married an Agness Sloan I think in Down, but may have been Armagh. Probably married in the early 1820s. Had one son I am aware of (being good Irishmen, probably had oodles more) - Charles O'Neil (O'Neill) who left Ulster for Scotland in the (probably) 1850s. Ended up in the Pennsylvania coal fields in Clearfield Co. in 1882. Died in Clearfield Co. in 1894. Any connections out there? Charles O'Neill Virginia
