Female
Place of migration
Migrated to/Born in USA

I think Ellen Donnellan was born somewhere west of Ennis, Ireland; possible in Inch or Cragnagower. She married John Glynn in Ireland; had two children in Ireland, Mary Glynn b. 1833 and Bridget Glynn b. 1835, both born in County Clare, Castleclare, Drumadrohid township, which is where I think John Glynn was from. Ellen and children migrate to United States, following John, arriving 23 Oct 1846 in New Orleans, Louisiana, where they had more children and seemed to do very well for themselves. They have many descendants.
