I am looking for information on Margaret Madden b 1 Feb 1830 in Kilkooney, parents may have been Patrick Madden and Kitty Minogue. She had a brother James born abt 1834. In 1850 Margaret left Ireland with an unknown aunt and uncle to come to the US. The came through the port of New Orleans and proceeded up the Mississippi River (the aunt died along the way), landing in Cincinnati. While there she re-met Martin White (they knew each other from school) and they married in 1853. James settled in Memphis, Tennesse and for a time Margaret & Martin lived there as well. I have not been able to locate a baptismal record for Margaret on rootsireland. Thanks

Hi,
The church records for Clonrush parish, which includes Kilcooney townland start in 1846.
I would have other records for this Madden family. You may contact me using the contact form on my website: www.clonrush.eu
