Hello Margaret,
Saw your email--- had been looking in Co.Kilkenny and Co.Wexford is just adjacent so thought I would take a shot.
Looking for 3 FANNING brothers who came to US at separate times (1855-1870)
Mathew. bc. 1834
Lawrence. bc 1835
Patrick. bc 1850
They settled in Eastern Kansas (Johnson County).
They married Irish women in the U.S.
They were farmers and stock raisers.
Lawrence had children named (not necessarily in birth order)
Mathew
John Edward
Martin Lawrence
Margaret
Michael Francis
Patrick
Mary
Agnes
Lawrence M
Edward
William Leo
Catherine
Always hopeful for a connection.
Thanks!

Hello Jean, Very interesting! Trying to mesh this together with my group known to be in Kansas. A new group of players potentially.
Yes, Fanning, the home of the World's largest rocking chair, they claim
Appreciate your help and interest.

Hi Jean, don't know what to make of it..... No tie to a relationship to be made at the moment.
The son Hugh, odd he was was born in NY?
And R Dowdall from Ireland -- a lodger or a relative ??
Can they be picked up ther is 1880, I wonder ?
Excellent sighting -- Thank you very much!
