Mayo / Thomas Heneghan/Hennigan
« on: Thursday 30 October 08 15:52 GMT (UK) »
Hi, this is the first time I have posted on here, so please bear with me. I am
trying to research my family history, and wondered if anyone could help me.
My great grandfather was born in Curnicarton Co Mayo in 1863, to Thomas
Heneghan and Bridget Hynes. William was their eldest child, the others being
Bridget 1865, Margaret 1867, Patrick 1870, Mary 1872, Honor 1876. William moved to Skipton, North Yorkshire, as he is on the 1891 UK Census as living with his cousin Margaret Preston(from Ireland) and living at Union Square, Skipton. In the 1901 UK Census William has married Elizabeth Ellen Tillotson, and they have a baby son, also Thomas. The 1901 UK Census also shows
Thomas Snr living in Union Square with his niece, as Margaret had died in 1900.
I presume Thomas was in Skipton to work, and maybe see his new grandson,
Thomas was a plasterers labourer. I can't find any trace of Thomas after 1901,
either in the UK or Ireland. William died in Skipton in 1931. I would be very grateful for any in formation. Thank you.
