Brennan, Patrick b:1820, Brennan, James b:1818 Roscrea
« on: Monday 31 March 14 11:39 BST (UK) »
Patrick BRENNAN b: c1820 immigrated to Canada c1840 from Roscrea and married Mary Bridget Meehan in Canada.  She arrived on the Hebe 1823 from Churchtown, Co. Cork.

In 1863, James BRENNAN b: c1818 immigrated to Canada with 5 sons, Patrick c1850, Thomas c1852, Martin c1853, John Patrick c1856 and Michael c1861. He married Johanna DOUGHAN although the children called her Mom, I believe that may have married in Canada.

I am unable to find shipping records that show any of these men/children leaving Ireland or arriving in Canada nor have I been able to locate church records in Ireland.

The family bible states that all of the above were born in and resided in Roscrea, Co. Tipperary.  Any assistance, would be greatly appreciated.
