Sarah McGonigle 1832 - Search for Parents
« on: Tuesday 18 March 14 10:06 GMT (UK) »
I am searching for the parents of my gg grandmother and would appreciate any help or pointers.  This is the information I have been able to piece together:

Sarah H. McGonigle
Born: 30-NOV-1832
County Mayo, Ireland

Brother: Thomas McGonigle (also listed as McGonagle, or McGunegal)
Born in Ireland, 1838 or 1839 (he is listed as age 21 in the 1860 Peoria, Illinois census)

Married: Isaac Troup
05-JUN-1851
St James Episcopal church, Lancaster, Pennsylvania, USA

We do not have record when Sarah or Thomas emigrated from Ireland to USA.  We do not have information on the names of their parents or where in Co Mayo they were born.

I have looked through the posting of Co. Mayo Resources and Links - that is very helpful.  Unfortunately, I have not been able to find much from searches there.

Thank you,

Joe
