Can anyone help me on my family tree research? Tighe is my mothers maiden name and I am trying to trace back her fathers side of the family. The most recent Tighes were all born and lived in Stoke on Trent but we always new they originated from Ireland, I recently managed to trace far enough back and found my ggg grandfather was John Tighe born 1824 in Co. Roscommon, Ireland. He married a lady called Margaret Brammer who was from England. I really want to find out more about him, his parents and any siblings he may have had if possible. Can anyone help?

Hi Louise
Have you come across a William Tighe who married a Bridget Tymon? He was born around 1820 and I understand he was from the Roscommon area. Could he be a brother of John?
Best wishes

How about this one for your Bridget?
"I have an Ann TIGHE's from "County Sligo" born early 1840's. Her parents were William and Bridgett (Tymon) TIGHE. I also have a sister B. Linda TIGHE born in "Ireland" 1856. I found Ann married to a Michael McCaffrey in Concord, MA in the 1870 Census, she died in 1896. "

My great grandfather was Patrick Conboy born June 23 1868 in Drumlish Longford. He married Mary Armstrong born April 15th 1868 Tubbercurry Sligo. Patrick had several brothers who all immigrated to America and a sister who married a Tighe and remained in Ireland. Their parents were (according to their daughter Agnes Conboy of NY): Patrick Conboy and Mary McKenna. I have info about the descendants of the Conboys in America, but none for the Conboy ancestors. As for the Armstrongs, the brothers (7) of Mary Armstrong immigrated to England and she went to America. Her parents were Mary and Michael Armstrong. I am grateful for any tips about these families.
