    1. [PIGGOTT] Ref to land grant, Henry PIGOTT, Galway
    2. Joe Bissett
    3. Hi List, Hopefully one of you may be able to help Lynn through this peripheral association of Henry PIGOTT's land grant in Galway. Joe I am searching for the marriage date and location for Mary MULVIHILL who married Michael MCDERMOTT. Mary's father was John MULVIHILL/ MULVEHIL and her mother's name was Mary. I am also searching for Mary's maiden name. I have found a land entry for a John MULVIHIL renting in Clonmoylon South, Parish Ballynakill, Galway. The land was owned by John Frees, Esq. and may have been part of a land grant To Henry Pigott. There is a death record for a Mary MULVEHILL in 1864, farmer's wife, in Clonmoylan. I have also found a death record in 1864 for a John MULVEHILL, farmer, in Coose South and a death record for a Mary MULVEHILL in Coos. Does anyone know if Clonmoylon South, Coos and Coose South are relatively close to each other? My problem is that I can't figure out which MULVEHILL couples might be Mary MULVIHILL MCDERMOTT's parents. I do know that she was born about 1816 in parish Ballynakill, Co.,Galway. Mary MULVIHILL married Michael MCDERMOTT, born about 1814 in Galway, and had a son, Martin, born 1844 in Ireland, possibly Galway. The family emigrated to Cincinnati, Ohio sometime between 1845 and 1858 where a daughter Mary Agnes was born in 1859. Any information or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Lynn
