CLACHERTY & EGAN ~ GALWAY
« on: Monday 25 October 10 13:43 BST (UK) »
I'm looking to find our exactly where in Galway my Gt Gt Grandparents hailed from - Michael CLACHERTY born circa 1865 (son of Patrick Kelly & Agnes McNamara) and Delia EGAN born circa 1866 (daughter of John Egan & Bridget Kelly) both Galway. 

They would have left Ireland sometime before 1894 as they were both married in St Patrick's Church, Dumbarton in that year.  From census records it does not appear that the families of either of them came to Scotland.

If anyone can offer and help or advice I would be most grateful.
