Hello again
Glad to know that those bits of information
were of use. I would be interested hearing
more about Dr Cregans family, long lost
cousins.
Also Dr Cregan is commemorated on a
plaque at the Family grave, he passed away
in the mid 60's.
Anyhow, all the Best
JP

Hello again PM
That's totally understandable, regarding privacy matters.
Well I shall tell you that Maryvale House in Shanagolden,
the Cregans residence no longer exists, however Dr Cregans
mother Margaret who hailed from Ballinvira House in Croagh
parish in still in existence, a quite substantial house, still
occupied to this day. The Dr's grandmother Bridget Hanly
was Fitzgerald, a family of note, her Grandfather Edward was
made a Freeman of Limerick in 1792. The Fitzgerald family tomb
is to be found in Croagh Abbey. Lastly, for the time being,
the Cregan Family originated in the townland of Dually, approx'
5 miles south of Newcastlewest.
Hope this helps the research, look forward in hearing from you
Regards, JP

Hello there
I've been researching my mothers family,
She is of the Cregans of Monavaha, Shanagolden.
Dr J Cregan is her brother, & her name was Margaret.
The Cregan family grave is located in Rathkeale churchyard
& the Hanly family grave is very nearby in said churchyard.
I'd be interested to know anything regarding
Dr Cregans family in Manchester, so I would
be grateful if you can furnish me with any information.
Best Regards
JP Reynolds
