Title: Pendergast/Reed
Post by: idannie on Sunday 01 August 04 17:20 BST (UK)

I'm looking for the families of Catherine P(r)endergast, and Thomas Reed (Reid).
Catherine was the dau. of William Pendergast and Catherine O'Rourke, and was born circa 1830 - arrived in USA circa 1851. She married Thomas Reed circa 1855 -13 children -11 grew to adulthood. They lived in Cambridge, NY, and Cohoes, NY.
Any help on locating the P(r)endergast family would be grand! Is there a particular part of Mayo that they would have been found  from 1830-1850?
Thanks,
Ann
