Hi Kiltaglassan. Thank you for your help. Leo was my father, I have information on Fran & Joe. James is buried with his parents in Fungal. I just can't locate uncle Jack. I have all the sisters info. I am clutching at straws here, you wouldn't happen to know how I could trace my grandfather's parents. He was born in New York USA in 1878 got married to Mary Shannon in Baldoyle Howth Dublin in 1900. His father was called John he was a carpenter originally from Ireland, though I don't know what county
Kind Regards.
John Ryan.

Here are the indexes for New York State on FamilySearch......I'm not an expert on the USA. Maybe you should post a thread on the USA forum. Link to this thread (https://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php?topic=846345.0)

I don’t know if this has been posted already

Here is the marriage of John Ryan and Mary Shannon
https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/marriage_returns/marriages_1900/10346/5766242.pdf

John's address is 21 Charlotte Street and a witness is John Ryan

In 1901 at 21.2 Charlotte Street there is also John Ryan (different one). I wonder if there is a connection?

This John is b Limerick and his wife is from Clare but there is a Thomas Ryan from Clare too  :-\

There is no 1890 census for New York.

1880
John Ryans b 1876-1878 in 1880 with father John. I can’t  see a father who is a Carpenter but that could be a loose name for a Carpenter’s labourer, I suppose.

i am relatively new to the site and struggling to to get the best out of it, having said that i have had some wonderful people from roots giving me great responses and found them really, really helpful but if i may be cheeky, what i am trying to find out is the name of my great grandmother. It is believed they originate from Ireland, though i do not know which county. Their son (my grandfather) was named after his father before him John, who was a Carpenter by trade according to my grandfathers wedding documents. My grandfather was born in New York in 1878, he then moved to Ireland, I assume about 1895 - 1899, he married Mary Shannon in Dublin, in 1900, i have found John & Mary in the 1901 & 1911 Irish census. i am trying to progress past this brick wall of who my great grandparents are and where they came from.

No need to start a new topic (and better to pick some sort of memorable mentioning surname or something in case it gets overlooked)- advice has already been posted on the thread you started two days ago-
