Connolly in Caddagh
« on: Friday 09 April 21 16:59 BST (UK) »
My great great granny was Bridget Deighan, maiden name Connolly. The only information I have is that when married they lived at Caddagh, Monaghan 1901. I'm just curious if I'm related to James Connolly (Easter Rising), if anyone can help provide me when any information it would be great.  I know there are a lof of Connolly's.

Thanks

Thanks
