Hello,
   Have you any Donahue(Donohue), Conway and/or Beach headstones in your  records?  Michael Donahue and Alice Beach (born early 1800's) came to Randolph, Massachusetts in the 1840's.  I have verified that they came from County Laois through Michael's citizenship papers.  I do know that Alice's mother was Mary Conway.  I don't know Michael's parents names.  Any info would be greatly appreciated!!!!

Thank you...

Hello Seanmac,

Do you have any entries for the Hughes surname within your records? I'm interested in a Loughlin Hughes, who died in 1894 aged 82 (Registered in Q.3). I believe he was Roman Catholic seeing as his son was, and the death was registered in the Mountmellick area.

Thanks

Paul

EDIT: He may have resided in the Ballintogher area, based on his son's stated place of origin on the 1911 England Census.

No luck with that one, only Hughes I have from Mountmellick is;
Patrick, who died in 1923, aged 69, and from Castlebrack, and my records from Castlebrack have no Hughes recorded.

Regards,
Jack

Oh well. Thanks for that Jack.

Hi Jack,

Do you have any Ward family members on your list? I know that they were farmers at Woodbrook, near Emo/Mountmellick, before leaving for Limerick in the late 1890s. Richard Ward is listed as a farmer at Woodbrook in April 1890 on a birth certificate.

All the best,

Chris
