HUGHES, MCALOON, MCGUIRE
« on: Thursday 20 October 05 22:07 BST (UK) »
Looking for parents of Anna McGuire born Dec. 7, 1847 Enniskillen, Fermanagh, Ireland.  Patrick McGuire (b. @1825) married Mary McAloon (sp.?) b. Jan. 31, 1830. 

By 1850 Patrick and Mary were in the United States living in New Albany, Floyd Co., IN.  They had 2 more children in the US. James b. 1853 and Elizabeth b. 1856. 

By 1858, Patrick had abandoned the family (I guess) and Mary married Lawrence Hughes in Mitchell, Lawrence Co., IN in Oct. 1858. 

Anna says she didn't come over to the US until 1854 or 1856.  She also indicated that she converted to Catholicism at an early age. 

Thanks,
Lisa
