The Common Room / Re: My Surname Interests
« on: Thursday 22 October 09 22:15 BST (UK)  »
Hi Dinny

The only information I have is Catherine Connolly born c1841 was my maternal great great grandmother, she married Patrick McCool, they lived in Ballyshannon, here she stayed and had quite a number of children,  :(I am afraid I have not been able to find out any more iformation, I have searched through the parish registers at the local LDS, but unfortunately they only have the record from 1856.
 I would be very and greatfull and interested in any information you can give me, as this is my massive brick wall, and I have no living relatives on my mothers side who I can ask.
Kind regards
Jenda

Hi
I am currently searching the parish registers for Rapho Donegal and am noting all the listings for the name McCaffrey as this is one of my family names, I only go to the lds each Wednesday, but if I come across their names I will let you know
