Hello there everyone - I am looking for any members of the Gavigan or Horan family's who may have knowledge of the Gallagher family who lived in Puntabeg. In particular the Horan family who may know where Patrick (Paddy) Gallagher is buried - I believe it may be in the Tample graveyard.
Many thanks
Barbara 

Hi Helen - yes - just been told the house fire was in 1949 so if my ancestors died before then (I am still trying to find this out!) then their burial records will have been destroyed 

Don't worry John - I have your email address now and will reply aftr popping to my sister's and then taking Bill (my hubby) to work

Thanks so much for this Lynette - I have emailed the Monsignor twice but have so far not received a reply - I will try again
Cheers
Barbara

Hello John - it certainly seems we are related - I have a copy of the 1911 census which says there had been 9 children born - I take it that Martin was the child who did not survive - this puts paid to an idea I had! I had been informed of a grave with Pat and Norah Gallagher but there is a Thomas P also in the grave - I thought maybe this was the child who had died but can't be as you say it was Martin.
Mum has a letter written from America to Michael's wife Margaret which could confirm a relationship between us however this is getting on to a different level if we are going to exchange personal family details and we are told not to give personal email addresses on the Forum so I am unsure as to how we can correspond personally - unless you know John otherwise I will look on the help pages for advise.

Regards

Barbara
