Mary Richardson was born around 1820 in either Kilkenny or Laois. She emigrated with her family to Canada around 1833 where they settled in Holmesville, Ontario near Goderich. Mary married William Holmes in 1842, and had 3 daughters with him. She died in Dec. of 1851. I am trying to find out more information about her family, and where they originated from in Ireland.
County Laois, or Laois in Irish, was once known as Queen's County. Located in the midlands of Ireland, it is home to the River Nore and the River Barrow which provide excellent angling. Our county town is Portlaoise and we have a population of approximately 80,559. We look forward to helping you connect with your ancestors’ place of origin.
