Paul,
I discovered your workhouse thread and was fascinated!  My 3rd great-grand father is Francis Drohan.  I am 90% sure its the same one what is in your tree.  I would love to learn more about this branch of my family. My tree is a public tree on Ancestry.com.: girasekfamily

I hope to learn from all the great work you've done, as I am just beginning his journey!

Waterford / Francis Drohan and Ellen Sullivan info?

Hi all
I am new to this group and am a relative beginner in researching genealogy.  I stumbled across posts from Paul Peter on this site who was researching Francis Drohan (1819-1882).  Paul, I'm hoping you read this message, since I don't know how to PM you!   
I believe this Francis is my 3rd great grandfather.  Rumor on 'this side of the pond' has it that he was widowed twice and had something like 16 children from 3 wives??  My search shows his first marriage to Ellen Sullivan.  It's possible his parents were Patrick Drohan and Catherine Dee, but these folks would have been too young to be his parents based on the records I found.
Does anyone else share this Francis on their tree and want to compare notes?
Thanx
Bernadette
