    1. [SH] Irish Free State
    2. Hi Maureen & Listers I know I have seen replies regarding the Irish Free State, but for some odd reason, I did not save it. Now I need to know what counties were included especially if Fermanagh or Butlerbridge Co Cavan are two of these. James & Elizabeth (nee McKeon, McKuen) emigrated to the Port of NY in May 1870 with three children Patrick, James & Elizabeth approximate ages of 10,8,& 5 respectivley. All of the death certificates and censuses I have, just state Ireland as place of birth. On the 1930 census, place of birth is listed as Irish Free State. The widow of my father's cousin says they are from Butlersbridge Co Cavan, but I have found nothing to substantiate this. I am also leaning towards Fermanagh as their county of origin, since I found on a search of the IGI an Elizabeth Teevan born on 5 Aug, 1865 in Belleek, Fermanagh to a James Teevan and a Eliza Keon. Young Elizabeth was born on 5 August, but on all of my documentation, the year of birth varies as does the other children. Any suggestions on where to look for their county of origin?
