Roscommon / Re: Owens Strokestown Co. Roscommon
« on: Tuesday 03 June 14 18:07 BST (UK) »
I am doing some research on my Owens family from Roscommon...although I have no idea if they were from Strokestown. I had heard that a lot of the Owens families were from the Cloonfad beg area. Do you happen to have acquired any information?
My ancestor that emigrated to the US in 1842 was Michael Owens (b. 1813, m. Mary O'Connell/O'Connor). He was the son of Michael and Catherine (Gibbens) Owens. So far only sibling that I know of was his brother Dominick who followed him in 1847. Both settled in the Dansville, NY area where I am from.
