Hi, I just wanted to add a further note to back up the Balbriggan connection. My great grandfather was from Balbriggan too (Buchanan) born 1860s and I have just found a piece of an old envelope in my grandmother papers this evening from Michael Bissett who was Mary Janes brother. The return address was Michael Bissett 5th street Canton Ohio. The letter was post marked Feb 4th 1937. I was just trying to figure out the connection between the two men to see if he was a relation when I came across this old thread. I looked into it and I don't see any connection between the two families so it looks like they may have grown up together in the town and kept in touch. Hope this is of interest
