I am searching for connections with Patrick Egan from Ennis and/or Newmarket, Clare, Ireland. Particularly, I am also interested in connections to Bridget Egan shown in Generation 2 below. She migrated to America, married a McNamara, and was never heard of since. If you have any connection to any part of this family in Ireland, Australia or America, I will be pleased to hear.
