Thanks Audrey

The dates are out by quite a bit but as they continually used the same names I will hang on to the information and see if I can fit it in somewhere.

Many thanks
Jill

Audrey,

Thank you so much for all your help, I am trying to put all your information together to see where I can make a connection.

Catherine/katie mcHugh was my grandmother and it seems that most of her siblings moved to England and as far as I know the male members didn't marry.

As a child I remember being told that some family went to the states.

Again many thanks
Jill

Hi. I am researching a McHugh family from the US who may have originated in Ardcarn. Thomas McHugh and Mary Regan/Reagan married in Ardcarne Parish on 27 January 1854. On 12 Jan 1855 their daughter Mary was christened.

My family is shown in the 1880 US census of Cincinnati, Ohio. Thomas and Mary, with daughter Mary and other children. I know from the death certificates of the children that the parents  names were Thomas McHugh and Mary Regan/Reagan and that they were from Ireland. But I haven't been able to prove that it is the same couple as were married in Ardcarne.

Do you have any information about this couple?
Thanks so much,
Susan

Just thought I would update my part of this thread. Since my original post, I've been able to learn the following:

Thomas and Mary McHugh were both buried at St. Joseph's New Cemetery in Cincinnati, Ohio. The cemetery records indicate that Thomas was the son of Bartholomew and Anne McHugh of Roscommon, Ireland and that Mary was the daughter of Thomas and Mary Regan of Ireland.  Thomas Regan was one of the witnesses at the marriage and was a sponsor for the baptism, so I'm sure that the Thomas and Mary McHugh from Ardcarne parish are the right couple.

In 1860, they were living with three other McHughs: 
Patrick McHugh with wife Mary and son Bartholomew (age 1)
Michael McHugh with wife Catherine and son John (age 5 months)
Mary McHugh, a single woman

Patrick McHugh married Mary Feen in Hamilton Co, Ohio in 1857. Michael McHugh married Catherine Sheridan in Hamilton Co, Ohio in 1859. I haven't found the immegration records for any of them.

                                                        Thomas b. 1832
Thomas and Joseph are in Massachusetts in 1850's
Thomas married Jane Hunt
Joseph married Catherine?
This family is also connected to Thomas and Winnifred (McDermott) Brennan married 1837 in Boyle Parish.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Jill & Audrey

I have a Bridget McHUGH married circa 1820s to Thomas MALONE - lived at/near Cootehall (close to Boyle), co Roscommon.  Son William MALONE (+ wife & child) arrived Sydney, Australia 1851.  Bridget was dead by 1851, probably even before 1849.

I've not been able to find anything more regarding Bridget -  Any possibility of a link to those already listed?  Any other leads?   Thanks

Hi,  I have a great grandmother Bridget McHugh born 1864 to Edward and Maria ( Phillips ) in Geevagh Parish County Sligo.

She moved to Scotland and married James Gilhooly.

Could they be related

Hi
I have seen the post from Audrey about Bernard McHugh, 3x grandmother was Bridget McHugh who was born in Roscommon (don't have her birth year but her husband was born abt 1799 in Roscommon) I would be interested to know if anybody has any information about her & if Bernard was her brother.
Bridget McHugh married Thomas Malone in Ireland, then they went to Scotland where she died. Their son William married in Scotland then he & his wife Ann Coyne went to Australia.
Hope someone can help
Thank you
Jane Maree
