Title: Denis Callaghan
Post by: lavender123 on Tuesday 12 August 14 21:02 BST (UK)
Could anybody help me, the only information I have for my g/g/grandfather Denis Callaghan was he was born about 1824 in cork, as I know that Callaghan is a cork name, I think he was married in cork as his wife hanorah  Callaghan/nee Mahoney. I don't know when they arrived in st George in the east, but their son Thomas was born in wapping about 1861, and married and returned to Dublin, as Thomas is on the 1911 census . Denis Callaghan dies age 55 in 1879. Any information would be appreciated. Denis Callaghan died in wapping. London. Thank you.
