Title: Traynor(Trainor) or Hillens from Ireland
Post by: njh on Thursday 23 September 04 14:43 BST (UK)

 Hi everyone.   I am stuck on one side of my tree - I have got as far back as GG Grandparents:
William Traynor/Trainor born 1855 Ireland
Catherine Hillen Born around 1857 in ireland.

I don't know where or when they married but by 1877 there were in the Uk and had a daughter Catherine in Liverpool before moving on to workington and then Middlesbrough.   Basically I don't know where they are from in Ireland - my family seem to think that it is either Londerry or Amargh???????

Anyone have a Hillen or Traynor/Trainor in their tree?

Thanks

My Trainors were from Wicklow, emigrated to Oz about 1850's.
