surname O'CALLAGHAN:

[ryan]

Hi!
This morning I recieved my Great Grandmother's birth certificate, and I was thrilled with her mother's maiden name: O'Callaghan ("Oh-Calahaan"). However, prior to discovering this I knew that the mother was of Irish decent. Does anybody have any insigiht into this surname? Any at all?

In specific, I am looking for anybody who has connections to, or info regarding:
Mary Ellen O'Callaghan b. circa 1877 to Irish parents. She was born in either Ireland or India.

Thanks!

ryan,

you might have more luck by just putting  'O'Callaghan surname' into Google - this should bring up the info on Irish Origins - also a few other sites.

Good Luck

I now have Mary Ellen O'Callaghan's marriage certificate from Ireland, to William John Munson (1895 in Cork City). Her father was named Michael O'Callaghan, a Horse Clipper by trade.
