Wexford / Re: Re: Any tips for researching in Gorey
« on: Sunday 07 February 10 23:00 GMT (UK)  »
Gerard,
Abraham Sheehan died in 1855 or 1856 .  He was married to Margaret Sunderland and I show that they had 6 children: Lawrence b.1830 went to states in 1846, Mary anne died prior to 1856, Bessie, died prior to 1856, John went to Australia, Bridget, and Patrick b.1840 d.1910 buried at Courttown?
All we have for information is Shehans or Sheehans of Ballyscartin (Ballyscarton), Gorey, Co. Wexford, Ireland. 
did you find Abraham listed on a census?  We are planning to travel to Ireland in mid April to see if we can find out more...any help or suggestions appreciated.
Thanks,
Tina

The date 1878 for marriage between Margaret and William could work.  Her father Michael would be around the same age as the Margaret who married Abraham Shehan...Will keep looking

I am researching a Abraham Shehan (death 1855 or 56)  who married a Margaret Sunderland.  The Shehan's are from Ballyscarton, Gorey, Co Wexford, Ireland.  Not sure if this Margeret or Margaret could be before your Sunderland.  Abraham and Margeret had children: Lawrence (b 1828) MaryAnn, Bessie, John, Bridget, and Patrick (1840-1910)buried at Courttown(?)
Thought perhaps our Margaret Sunderland could be Aunt of yours?  Any help would be great.  We are traveling to Ireland in April in hopes of finding some more info out.
