Michael Lynch is my great grandfather. His son, John, my grandfather. I know nothing of Michael other than what I have been able to pull off the census reports and I do know when he came to the USA. His parents and siblings are a big question mark. I'm guessing his father could be Michael or John as the name is repeated down though the family. His mother might be Mary. I haven't a clue where they were from in Ireland, but if I had to guess I'd say Galway, Clare or Cork. I've literally hit the brick wall and was hoping that someone is researching the other children. I wish you success in your search. Thanks for responding, Kathleen <BR><BR><BR>**************************************<BR> AOL now offers free email to everyone.
