Cork / Re: Finucane - what are my chances?
« on: Friday 26 February 10 23:53 GMT (UK)  »
Ann,

This is the only the second time I have visited this site in 6 months and by co incidence the first thing I stumbled upon was your request for information.

I have James Finucane b c 1829 d 03/1873 in Lancashire and indeed married to Anne Moran.  He came from Mallow in County Cork.   James was the son of Cornelius Finucane and Catherine Sullivan.

I have tree information concerning this branch of the family should you be interested.  I suggest you email me at (*) if you want me to send it

Regards

Danny
