Hi Ancilla...

My Walsh's and Sullivans came from around the Thurles area...where did yours hail from?
The surnames, which I am interested in are; Maternal side: Ryan, Kevin, Grant, Grady, Gleeson, Walsh, Dwyer, Paternal side: O' Dwyer, Woodlock, Rochford & Britton - all in Tipperary; and Kelly and Hoynes in Laois.

Ryan, Campbell, Luttrell, Grant, Grahame, Bainbridge and Brown in Queensland, Australia

Tighe in Victoria, Australia.

Grant in Philadelphia, Sullivan and Penny in New York; and Britton in Connecticut

Hi Artisann...

My Gradys - well only have one at moment, lol came from near to the Killenaule area. But I do have Dwyers from Rahelty - John Dwyer m. Margaret Moore in 1871 - he was from there.

I haven't gone back too far yet on the Walshes, as far as I know they are from Clonmel butm Thurles is not far away.  The Sullivans again I am not sure, I have them all named in a will that ws made by Michael Grady/Keiff who emigated to PA.  As far as I know he hailed from Cork.  It is difficult to stay focused as different names keep cropping up to send you on another line of thought.  I do know for definite that these all belong somewhere in the family as I have letters to my grandfather regarding the will.  Hopefully the link will be apparent pretty soon.

good luck everyone
