James Kilroy
« on: Thursday 09 January 14 22:24 GMT (UK) »
Hi there. I am looking for a James Kilroy, husband of Maria Gibson and father of James Arthur Kilroy who was the owner of J.A. Kilroy & Sons Ltd. He was grandfather of Percy Gibson Kilroy. HE was born around 1858 in Ireland probably Tullamore, Offaly or nearby.
I would be grateful for any help.
Thanks
PeareFamily
