Title: Scanlon - Scanlan Aghaveagh, Ballybofey and Killygordon
Post by: donegalboy on Friday 07 May 10 23:08 BST (UK)
I'm seeking information on Scanlons who lived in Aghaveagh, Glenmore (Glenfin) County Donegal.
My great, great grandfather Andrew Scanlon was born in Aghaveagh in the 1830's. He later moved to Ballybofey and worked on the Edenmore Estate and married Eleanor McMonagle of Sallywood, Killygordon.
Patrick, one of his sons, emigrated to America and was alive and in the Kansas area in the early 1940s.
I want to find out what happened to Patrick Scanlon. He was born in Killygordon circa May 24, 1863.
I also want to trace Andrew Scanlon's siblings who were born in Aghaveagh. I believe they owned a small shop there one time.
