Hello Migki,
If possible could you please look and see if there are any Moran's or Farrell's listed in your book.
All I know about them is that they are from Killimor Galway.
Thank you,
Maggie.

Hi Maggie, i also see you have family members from County Mayo. If you are looking for any of them in the Great war (ww1) I would try and get hold of a copy of this book. If you do not wish to do that this is the email address of the co aurthor of the book. i have wrote to him and asked for information of some of the family memebrs i have in his book.
Hope this is of use to you?
Migky ;)

Hi Migky,

Wonder if you would be kind enough to take a look and see if there are any Bagot / Baggot(t)  surname mentioned.  Do not know township or parish.

Appreciated  :)

Have you looked for them on the war graves site?

Hi Migky,

I am trying to trace my family sideways. Looking for cousins of my Grandmother from Galway to help with research on her. All I have is an old family document listing these names, could you check for me please;

Moloney/Maloney
Whaling/Whalen  or similar

I have no first names, but they were probably Doctors.

Thanks,
Trish
