The amount of work done on the Leitrim and Roscommon census deserves congratulation!. I believe that my paternal grand dad, Bernard Logan came from Mayo. He was born circa. 1870 and died in Manchester in 1956. He was married to Margaret Loftus (Mayo family, she was from Bolton, born 1884). I understand that he had a famial connection in the Leeds area of Yorks. Trying to locate his family is like platting fog, though I found an interesting possibility in Leo townland, in the civil parish if Annagh, in the barony of Costello, in the county of Mayo. That's as far as it goes. Ring any bells with my Rootschat pals?

Dear Heywood,
As a matter of interest am I communicating with a lady called Teresa!!
The nom de plume leads me to that conclusion! If not many thanks for your efforts re. my grand dad. Obfuscation hardly describes his arrival in England!!

Dear Heywood,
I want to send a special thank you for the info. re. Leo etc. I will pursue it as far as possible. Most times (Uncles etc) I have no problem finding, but this old lad is proving to be something of a Scarlet (or Green!) Pimpernel. I will, keep you up to date.
Again, Thanks!!

Dear maryderry,
thanks you for the info. re. Loughan and loghan. I did think at one time that the GANNON connection was grandads family, but this ran into the sand by a process of elimination on LDS. Looking at grandads marriage cert. his father is given as Patrick LOGAN which is how I got to the LEO place in Mayo. My real problem is that the family believe he was from Mayo, but no real evidence to confirm that. His wife (Margaret) was definitely from a Mayo family. His last remaining daughter (80 yrs.) says he came from Mayo, but that is the only info. she has, which is rather sad. I am very grateful for my Rootschat pals to show an interest. Keep on truckin'
Bill

Hi,
I think we are cousins (of some sort). I am the grandchild of Bernard LOGAN and Margaret Loftus.
I have been unable to find anything on Bernard until today, when I obtained a transcript from the 1911 Census. It lists Bernard (mis spelt as Leonard) Logan age: 34, Occupation: Harvy Labourer (whatever that is), Born: Ballingham Co Mayo Ireland.
His wife is Margaret age: 27, born: Bolton, Lancs,
Ch: Margaret Mary 6yrs, Thomas 4yrs, Bernard 2 yrs, William Patrick 0 yrs.
I then got into "Co. Mayo" and subsequently found your message.
I'm assuming the person you got some info. from is my Auntie Eileen.
My mother was Ellen. I was unaware of the earlier children until recently. I only knew from Catherine (Kitty) down.
It may be possible to now exchange whatever information we have and join forces?
Kind Regards Ellenc
