I am trying to find this gannon family.
this is the family taken from the 1911 Census for Co Mayo.
1911 Census for House no 6 in Tonragee, East (Corraun, co Mayo)
Gannon Pat 55 Male
Gannon Bridget 52 Female
Gannon Michael 24 Male
Gannon Pat 20 Male
Gannon Maria 18 Female
Gannon James 16 Male
Gannon John 14 Male
Gannon Peter 12 Male
Gannon Martin 10 Male
Patrick Gannon is married to Bridget Ohara and there are another two children possibly Thomas and Hugh who are older - I know hugh went to Cook co Illinois and Thomas poss to the UK, but I am still trying to confirm this.
Martin is my Grandfather - but what happend to Patrick, Michael, John and Peter? I know James stayed on the family land and married Katie Gallagher from clare Island but I would love to find out what happened to the other brothers. Does anyone recognise this family?
This is the family on the 1901 Census
Tonragee East/Achill/Burrishoole/Mayo/Household/Gannon/Bridget (31)
husband Patrick(30) away-Thomas(15)-Hugh(12)-Maria(9)-James(5)-John(3)-Peter(1)
Patrick is away as he is working on the railways where I suspect the sons also went - I know Martin ended up working on the RNER in Glasgow and I have check the Glasgow records for all the brothers and there are none listed.
If anyone thinks they might have a match I would love to herr from you.
thanks.
