Hi,

Abbeyleix is in the Queens County (Laois) not Limerick. There is an Abbeylands in Limerick. Abbeyleix catholic parish records are available only from 1824 at the National library in Dublin so unless she was younger than you thought, you may only find siblings.

Hi Margaret:
I noriced in your names that you have a HIGSON from Giggleswick. I have recently discovered a GG grandmother Elizabeth Higson married to John Oldham Savage. Elizabeth was born in 1841 to parents John Higson and unknown. Would this Elizabeth be any relative to your Higsons? Please contact me at "(*)" if you think this is a connection.
Thanks
Ann
