Stephen Fannigan, Mount Nebo, Ireland
« on: Friday 15 March 13 08:26 GMT (UK) »
Does anyone have any information on Stephen (Steven) Fannigan, born 1820 in Mount Nebo?

He married Cornellia Daniell in Dublin in 1844 and moved to India.

Would love to know why he travelled so far from Ireland?

Thanks for help

Hi Cara,

what do you know of him - e.g. where have you found him/ children/ death etc?
Finding someone in India is often the Army or similar.

We know that he was born in Mount Nebo from an old family letter. He had a son called George Stephen Fannigan. That is all really.

I have seen a published tree with that information now.

I think the tree has George born in Ireland. What did George do in India?
Are you sure that Steven moved there also?

We are not 100% certain but we have found two brothers getting married there at a young age so believe he may have done?

The tree if on ancestry is mine.
