Hello to everyone, I have just joined this list recently and wonder if anyone recognises my "SWEENEY`s" Patrick born C1818 Ireland (Mayo/Sligo)? married Ann who was born C1825. Children of that marriage: Ann 1851, Bridget 1852, Catherine 1854, Michael 1856, Ellen 1858, William 1861 (or 1865), Sarah 1863 and Elizabeth 1865. All these children were born in Ireland. William married Ellen Reid in 1864 in Halifax, West Yorkshire and their children were Edwin 1885, Minnie 1837 and Lillie 1889, could be others but have not found any yet. Edwin married Nellie Edon in 1907 in Halifax and their children were Thomas W 1907, Nellie 1908, Arthur 1910 (my grandfather) and James Wilfred born 1911 died 1912. If anyone has come across this family I would love to hear from them. Regards Paulette Cater
