Whalen or Fitzgerald surnames
« on: Tuesday 13 January 09 09:10 GMT (UK) »
I am writing to see if anyone can help with my family ancestry. I have traced my family name back to Tralee County of Kerry. My relatives name was John Whalen and he was born on January 9th, 1858, his parents names were Jeremiah Whalen and Julia Fitzgerald. Other than the information posted I know nothing else, but would appreciate any help possible.
