Has anyone seen the name McGoverne with an e on the end?

Hi Mike,

  Am I correct in thinking I knew you as Micheal (mum Margaret dad Jim?) Small world - I would love a copy of our family history but apparently I cannot pm you until I have made three post on this site, which shouldn't take long.

                                  Many thanks for your offer - Regards Sheila

Hi elmfield - Yes I do still live in this fair City and in a lovely area as you can tell by my username.
I have asked Mike for a copy of family history .  Be interesting to know what connections we may have.

Hi Sheila,

Quite correct.  You have the three posts now so send me your email address and I'll let you have my research file.  Glad to make contact again.  Mike

Hi rivelinlass...I have a mass of information which Mike has passed onto me relating to two brothers and their descendents. William and Michail were born in Donagh Co. Monaghan and joined the Dragoons...latterly based in the Hillsborough barracks at the time of Sheffield's 'troubles'.Both retired to Sheffield...Michail ( my g/g/grandfather) was a blacksmith in Hollis Croft whilst his brother kept a beer house.

Hi, Sheldon

I reckon you, rivelinlass, and I are all related via Sheffield Barracks and a couple of McGoverne brothers who retired from the Army and settled in Sheffield!

Hi elmfield,
Im descended from Michael McGoverne, and yes we must all be related. Its funny Ive been away from Rootschat for quite a while and only just stumbled upon the recent posts in reply to my original query in 2005.

Regards
Tracy.
