Galway / Re: Kerrigan Family of Cloughbrack Upper
« on: Tuesday 04 April 17 05:01 BST (UK)  »
I'm tracking a John Kerrigan in Balinasloe, Galway. I think born in 1923 with siblings Martin, Mary, James (Jimmy) and possibly Christie. I believe their father to also be John Kerrigan perhaps with a brother called Malachy. There is talk of their previous destination being Knock in County Mayo.

1923 John Kerrigan married my Grandmother Maragaret Caulfield in Balinasloe

Problem with census is they all had the same names.

Lead on ward... I'm in similar situation. Out of my 9 aunts and Uncles no one can tell me their Grandparents name or indeed their dad's siblings. I can't find any records or graves, suspect travellers didn't get too official.
One thing I've been told is before the Kerrigan Travellers came to Ballinasloe they were in Knock County Mayo. There my Great Grandmother married my Great Grandfather Kerrigan. Apparently it was her second marriage. The first one was a Ward traveller.
