Michael Nangle lived in Muhry, Toomours, Sligo. He died before May 1880 according to probate records filed in Wisconsin in the matter of his son James’ estate. The probate records identify him as the father of James Nangle, Honoria (Boyle) Nangle, Mary (Riley) Nangle, Michael Nangle, Hester (Sunney) Nangle and Thomas Nangle. Probate records identify Thomas Nangle as being born in Muhry, Toomours, Sligo.  All these children emigrated to the United States prior to 1850. It is unknown if Michael Nangle had children that remained in Ireland. 

The known children of Michael Nangle were: James Nangle, b. abt 1806, died 24 June 1858 in Millville, Grant County, Wisconsin, USA; Honoria Nangle, b 1810, died 7 July 1861 in Patch Grove, Grant, Wisconsin; Mary Nangle, b 1815, died unknown year in Wisconsin; Michael Nangle b 1816 in Muhry, Toomours, Sligo, died 8 May 1880, Patch Grove, Grant, Wisconsin; Hester Nangle, b 1817, died 26 Sep 1897 in Patch Grove, Grant, Wisconsin; Thomas Nangle born abt 1804 in Muhry, Toomours, Sligo, died before 1858 in Franklin, Norfolk County, Massachusetts, USA. 

James Nangle did not marry and Michael Nangle had no children. Both left substantial estates in Wisconsin. Are there property ownership records for Muhry, Toomours, Sligo that could shed light on the family’s property or other holdings there before 1850?

    Boyle Poor Law Union formally declared

    <p>The Irish Poor Law Act of 1838 divided Ireland into poor law unions (in which paupers would receive poor relief). A union was named after the town on which it was centred (where its workhouse was located) and the "union" boundaries were unrelated to those of the civil parishes ( and crossed county boundaries in many cases). Prior to this date, poor relief was administered by parish and these records were kept in the Church of Ireland Vestry Books (held locally).</p>

Thus began the mass hysteria that lead to the "Day of the Straws"...</p>
