Hi,

I'm newly registered and this caught my eye.

John (John James) & Catherine GOODWIN were siblings of my Great grandfather Patrick (c.1852 - c.1930) of Derryvore, Fermanagh (part of Crom landed estate, where Pat was the head boatman).

I believe those FITZPATRICK passengers on the Hudson might be their cousins as Patrick's mother was Margaret Fitzpatrick (1818 - 1901). Unfortunately, I have yet to research the Fitzpatrick branch.

regards

Michael

I am researching my friends FH for her and family stories say that her Grandmother Elsie May Bradley born 1909 Whangarei was put in an orphanage as her parents George Bradley and Mary died young.
Has anyone any idea where to go to find these records?
Thanks Fiona

Hi Fiona and Welcome to RootChat,

It would pay to start a new thread with "Elsie May Bradley born 1909 " as the heading.
This is a completed thread and may not get the same attention a new thread would get.
I;m sure we can help you find out more about Elsie May,

Cheers Janette
