I know there was a Michael Friel, wife Margaret and family in Boggs Twp in 1880. My ancestor, Mary Elizabeth Friel (Polly) married Jacob Shaner and they lived in Boggs Twp in 1840-1870. Although this Michael was born ca 1827 and my Mary E. was born ca 1804, could they be related?? Michael's oldest son was Cornelius, and Jacob and Mary named their first son Cornelius. It appears that Michael was born in PA, as were his parents so a relationship is possible. Michael and Margaret are buried in Askey Cem., Snowshoe Twp >> Hi Marge From "Centre Co., PA Newspaper Death Notices 1821 - 1869" 1830 FRIEL, susan (Mrs) In Kishacoquillas Valley (Miffin Co.)
