Hello to the list My gggGrandfather Peter Gahan m. Catherine Murphy....have not yet established where or when. Their children were: Mary b. 25 Jan 1806 Patrick b. 13 Feb 1807 Thomas b. 13 Feb 1809 Richard b. 26 Mar 1810 - of whom more later Peter b. 20 Apr 1812 Michael b 14 Apr 1814 John b. 2 Dec 1816 Thomas b. 16 Apr 1819 Richard (above) is my ggGrandfather. He m. Mary Fardy 16 Jan 1842 at St. Michael's Church, New Ross, Co. Wexford, and their known children were: Johanna Gahan b. 12 Dec 1842 Peter b. 29 Jul 1844 Matthew b. 23 Jul 1846 - of whom more later Richard b. 6 Apr 1848 All of the above died here in Montreal. Matthew (above) was my GGrandfather. He left Ireland in 1853 or 1854 with his brother Richard emigrating to Montreal, Quebec, Canada. They were very young and probably traveled with someone but we know not who. Have all data on all successive generations of both Richard and Matthew. Johanna m. Michael Pugh in Montreal and died a widow without offspring, to my knowledge. Peter married twice, in Montreal,. and his only son Richard Daniel died in infancy, again to the best of my knowledge. All births noted, except as noted above, were in New Ross and all baptisms were at St. Michael's, New Ross, which was replaced in 1902 by St. Mary & St. Michael's Church. Searching for all of ggGrandfather's siblings and their descendants, connections to Catherine Murphy, connections to Mary Fardy. Would be pleased to hear from anyone who thinks they may be connected or who thinks I may be able to help them.
