Sligo / McGowans, Callaghans, Regans from Sligo
« on: Saturday 20 December 14 18:32 GMT (UK)  »
Greetings!

My great-great grandparents James McGowan (1846-1888) and Mary Ann Elizabeth Callaghan (1849?-1913) were from Ballymote. After James had died in 1888, Mary remarried John Regan. I do not have any more information regarding him/them.

Does anyone have more information of these folks? Parents? siblings?

thanks!

Galway / McGagh's and Dalys near Milltown / Banagher
« on: Saturday 20 December 14 18:04 GMT (UK)  »
Greetings

Does anyone know of any relations between the McGagh's and Daly's of the Banagher / Milltown area? My Daly ancestors are from Banagher, as far back as possibly the 1840/1850's. Not sure of they have been there longer, or if they were from neighboring areas, or county Mayo.

Many thanks

Galway / trying to find "St. Joseph's Church, Miltown"- Daly/Faragher
« on: Friday 25 February 11 20:06 GMT (UK)  »
Looking for any information regarding the ancestry of Patrick Joseph Daley (1880-1918). His parents were John Daly and Bridget Faragher. Patrick was baptized in "St. Joseph's church in Miltown" on Oct 28, 1880. His sponsors were Micheal Greany and Mary Faragher.

He later left for America in 1900, and died in 1918 in Massachusetts.

I am stuck, since there seems to be several Miltown/Milltowns in Ireland. I found two (so far?) that have a St.Joseph's church --County Galway, and County Clare (Miltwon Malbay?)-- but have not been to reach anyone at either place.

Anyone know if there might be another St Joseph's/Miltown in another county?
Anyone have access to Miltown Malbay information that might tie into this?

Another forum member from another site pointed out to me that there was a record on familysearch.org that a Patrick Daly born to a John Daly and Bridget Daly Farragher, November 9, 1880, in Banaher. Perhaps the translation of the birth date of the original record could have been incorrectly read, since the baptismal letter is original, and clearly states October....

or could it be that common of an occurrence of another Patrick being born near the same time frame?

If it is the same Patrick, would it make sense to be born in Banaher (County Offaly?) and be baptized in a "Miltown"?

Any info is appreciated- thanks!
