Title: BIRTHS - James Colgan and Mary Murphy, Meigh, Killeavy
Post by: Killeavy on Friday 04 May 12 10:43 BST (UK)

Hi,  I am seeking assistance to identify four children to James Colgan and Ann Murphy who married 14 January 1885 in Meigh.  I understand James and Ann had 12 children according to the 1911 Irish Census. I have identified the following eight: Peter b. 1889, Michael b. 1889, Elizabeth (Lizzie) b. 1890, Annie (Anne) b. 1891,  Bridget b. 1895, , Kate b. 1904, John b.1905 and Martha b. 1908. 

Regards

Danny Colgan
