Is there a way to get in touch via this rootschat? as I too have John and Ellen Comer as great-great grandparents, but descended from their son Simon Comer and then through one of his daughters.

Simon,

I have a Michael Comer b1864, son of John and Ellen Comer. Michael went to Sheffield and was  a bricklayers labourer. He married a Margaret Raftery (b 1874) and they raised a family in Sheffield. I have quite a lot of detail on Michaels offspring in Sheffield.

John and Ellen Comer (nee Gibbons) were my Great Great Grandparents. John was born around 1831 and they lived in Glenamaddy. Im looking for more detail on them if anyone can help.
