Hi Michael
I sent you an email yesterday and attached some photos of Michael and Mary Quann Halligan. If it won't open I'll try sending the pics to you individually. They were sent from (*)

All the best

Hi Pat!

Thanks for the speedy response!

 It's fascinating, I didn't realise until recently how many siblings my grandfather had.
My mother grew up in Glenmore (where my brother now lives) and she now lives in Kilmurry (where I grew up) which is not far from Glenmore. As far as I know we still have relatives in Balinlaw. I think it was Agnes Halligan who took over the Ferry bar there and then her sons. I visited there a few times when I was younger.
My mother would have more information.

I've been living in London about 25 years now but go home a few times a year.
I'd be very interested to see the family tree and perhaps even meeting some relatives!

Happy new year!

Hi!

Michael Halligan and Mary Quann are also my great grandparents.
My grandfather was the eldest of their children (John), who travelled back from the US with his parents and brothers and sisters to attend the funerals of Michaels two brothers who were fishermen in Balinlaw and both drowned. They then stayed in Co. kilkenny and never returned to the US. My grandfather lived in Glenmore.
The only one of his siblings I met was Mary who was a nun and spent most of her life working in Nigeria.
My mother told me at Christmas that Mary Quann was an operatic singer. I was trying to find some information on her when I found this forum!  :)
