Researching Catherine Annie Gargan (Gargon) born November 1869 / 70, died 1937, Belmont Rd. Hospital, Liverpool. Believe she was born in Ireland, with a father Thomas, who died before 1892. Thomas' occupation on her marriage certificate shows joiner. Catherine moved to Liverpool prior to her marriage in 1892 to William Edmund Waters. Streets lived: 18 Gannock Street, Edgehill, Wavertree area? Liverpool 30 Rupert Street 32 Yelverton Road 39 or 40 Red Rock Street Cannot seem to find any record of a Catherine born in 1869/70 with a father Thomas anywhere. Thanks, Sharon "Patricia" Smith Happy St. Paddy's Day

It could have been from the Scottish McGuinness. Does anyone have links to GUINNESS or JAGO in Dublin. Thelma in Australia. IRISH-SCOTS links - http://matthewbirrell.50megs.com/index.html

Anyone connected to these lines? 1. John McGLINN (b.c. 1798) m. Anne FARRELL (b.c. 1800) unknown location Ireland. Unknown whether they married in Ireland or NY. Emigrated to NY c. 1833. Sons James , John , daughter Catherine (surname spelling changed to McGLYNN and/or McGLYNN). Lived New Utrecht section of Brooklyn 1840 to today (some on Staten Island too). John McGLYNN married Margaret BRANNAN or BRANNON, who died in 1874. Unknown where in Ireland she was from. They had 5 children before her death. more info on this family, including photos of graves in Holy Cross Cemetery Brooklyn NY at http://community.webtv.net/mpetzolt/genealogy 2. John McCARTHY (CARTHY in Ireland) s/o John CARTHY and Mary HOGAN baptised in Clonmel Waterford, married Mary Ellen GOUGH in Brooklyn NY in 1886. Mary Ellen's parentage is unproven.... but a relation to John GOUGH of Clonmel is proven (uncle or father?, that's debatable right now). John and Mary Ellen McCARTHY moved to Fairfield/Bridgeport CT area where they had 9 children, including my grandfather John Thomas McCARTHY. Both my grandfather and his brother James served on the Bridgeport Fire Department for many years.

So far it looks like this has been a great success this year, and I hope to hear from someone that they have made a connection on the list... We will try and wrap this up by Sunday evening where ever you are in the world... so please send the posts by then (of course, you're welcome to send them anytime, but this is for this special event). Also, this will give the many people who got bounced off the list due to error messages or who had other isp-related problems to participate with us now that most of them have their situations straightened out. The guidelines are up at http://community.webtv.net/shamrockroots/partyguidelines If you've already sent in your post, but need to send another, feel free to do so. Please remember to detach the digest from your reply if you are replying to a digest.
