Hi Anne

I have Cahalane family in Boston, and its quite a common name here in Co.Cork in Ireland. So if we are not related, then its possible that some of the other Cahalanes who live around here are  :). I am also missing a Cahalane in theUS...maybe you are one of his family?? He was Michael Cahalane, born near Skibbereen 20 Nov 1887, went to the US in May 1911 and lived in Roxbury MA up to 1914?...then my trail runs cold!
Thank you for contacting. Im very new to rootschat at the moment but I'll be learning!

Sorry, am new to this so forgive me if I'm doing things slightly wrong! ;)! The John cahalane and Mary Ryan parents are definately not the right ones.. their mum was Ellen (Nelly) Murphy. There was also a brother Jeremiah, my g g grandfather who stayed in Ireland and their youngest sister Johanna remained in Ireland also.

Thank you so much to everyone for replies..its much appreciated

Hi Janet

This is definately the correct ones as they had a brother Corneilus born 16 Feb 1866. Their parents were john Cahalane and Ellen Murphy. Patrick did go to Australia, but returned back to Ireland again sometime pre 1926 I think

Australia / Irish Born- Mary,Margaret,Ellen & Annie CAHALANE

Hi. I'm looking for help please as I'm at a loss as to how to research my great grand aunts who emigrated to Australia from Skibbereen, Co.Cork Ireland. There were 4 sisters but I'm not sure where they went so my information is very very vague.
Mary was born 30 March 1859.
Ellen was born 4 October 1863
Margaret was born 4 April 1868
Annie was born 10 Feb 1870.

I dont know any married names, although one may have married a doctor, named McCarthy, but thats not certain.

I have a picture of whom I believe may be Mary, with her children Maggie, Agnes and Mick. This was taken in Webb & Webb, 374 Hay Street, Perth.
I also have a wedding picture of Chris & Del, one who must be a niece or nephew, taken in the 1920's.
I am attaching both photos in the hope it rings a bell with someone!

If anyone could give me any guidelines as to where I should be searching, I would really appreciate it.


Thank you for taking the time to read this.
Cath
