Agnes Canna & Sisters - Bray - Rathdown

[Lance Matthews]

Many thanks, I had not seen your reply until today.

I will send off for a mariage certificate for Philomena Byrne who married Andrew Canna in the district of Rathdrum in 1872, do not know which quarter.
I have sent away for the marriage certificate of heir daughter Agnes.

[Lance Matthews]

I have now received the marriage certificate of Agnes Canna, daughter of Andrew & Philomena.
Agnes married 17.02.1908, Rathdown, to Arthur McMullen and in 1911 Census is shown as living in Dublin with children, John & Mary. Have found a marriage of John McMullen, in Dublin South, last quarter of 1944.

Hi Lance, My name is Betty Hunt (nee Canna), from Greystones, and I am researching my family tree. The headstone in Redford cemetery is my family plot (parents/brothers) and I think the Andrew Canna that you were looking for was my grandfather Christopher's brother.

Hi Betty, great to hear from you. I would love some help with the Canna family tree. I have found some other names related to the Canna's. Matthews, Dalton & McMullen.

Charlotte asked me to help her with the Canna line. I am sure she will give you my e mail address, so we can exchange information.

[Lance Matthews]

Betty, like you I have William Hannan marrying Elizabeth Canna in 1896.
I am now looking for the husband's name of Bridget Canna, born 1874 and married Oct-Dec 1896.
Their brother Christopher, born, 1876, may have married in 1899 to Eliza ?
