Finding lost family in Ardara, Donegal. GIVEN family please help.
« on: Sunday 25 October 09 23:03 UTC (UK) »

Hi im looking for family of my dad Hugh Given who passed away many years ago, he was from Donegal most probably Ardara born in 1917 but moved to Plymouth England later on. He had many brothers and sisters that moved all over from ireland. We think one sister was called Eileen. And think his mum and dad were called William and Teresa Given.
Its been quite hard to find any info but we want to find and meet our lost family and our roots so if you have any information please help it will be much appreciated. Thank You.

Hi Fran
there is a family on the 1911 census for Ardara
Mother's name is Teresa but the father is called Thomas
I know your father was not born until 1917 but there are 3 children I can't put their names on here
in case they are still living
