Cheshire Completed Lookup Requests / Re: Pat and Anna Gannon and Family 1861 Census Please
« on: Sunday 16 July 06 22:00 BST (UK) »
Hi Peter!
I am still gathering information on the Gannons (like many of us who are hooked on this family history stuff, eh?).
Patrick Gannon's mother was Catherine and his father was Darby, who probably died in Ireland before Patrick and mother left for England in 1850-1851. Patrick did have a brother Michael who came to the US and worked the mines in Schuylkill County PA in the late 1860s and 1870s.
Michael Gannon married Mary Tracey.
Patrick and Michael's mother Catherine died and was buried in Minersville PA in the 1870s.
I have yet to go back to Ireland to look for the roots but we could be connected somehow. Michael was a name often used in my Gannon family, but I'll admit it is a popular name.
Lemme know if I can help further.
Len
