Hi Marcia  . . . 

Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out . . . 

Thank you for your posting . . . 

So . . I began searching " Roots " (paid) for the Marriage of John // Margaret 

I searched . . ALL Ireland . . . 1842 . . . +/- 5 yrs. . . . there were 120 John Egan's getting married in that time period . . . 

BUT . . . only ONE . . showed for " Laoise " (a.k.a Queens Co.) . . . . 

In . . PORTARLINGTON. Laoise  . . . ( close enough to your given areas )

on. . . 18 Oct. 1844 . . . John Egan married  . . . MARGARET CONNOR . .  

Witness . . . Hogan // Anne Hogan

____________________________________________________________________

When I searched . . . for the Birth of John . . . c.1800

I find . . . in BALLINKILL Co.Laoise . . . Baptism of John . . 

! June 1803 . .  

Father . . . MARTIN Egan . . . Mother . . Sarah MALLONE . . . . . no note of witnesses . . . 

______________________________________________________________________

Next . . . search for Margaret Connor . . . 7 hits . . . Conor / Connors / Connor 

Likely hits . . . are

Marg. Connor . . 22 May .1820 . . Portarlington . . Father . . . Stephan Connor . . . Mother . . Mary CLEARY

______________________________________________________________________________

Using the input of the Mothers names (above) . . I searched for the Birth of Elizabeth 1844 . . Laoise . . . NO hits . . . 

leaving out the Mothers name . . . NOthing . . . 

_____________________________________________________________________________________

Patrick .  . . No direct hits . . (  Patr. --- 23 mar.1851 . . . Father . . ANDY . . Mother . . Bridget Conroy . . Clonaslee)
______________________________________________

Richard . . YES . . . ! Dec.1850 CLONASLEE . . . Father . . JOHN . . . Mother . . Margaret MYAN . . . ( no known Irish surname ) . . could be RYAN

____________________________________________________________________

I did NOT proceed further . . . with the Children . . . and Marriages . . . 

Best I could do . . 

Good luck with your continued search . . . 

Cheers . . . Eamonn.

Hi Marcia
See the thread re Egans I may be able to offer you some information. Juat wondering are u a relative?

Marian S

Hi, wondering if you have been able to figure anything out with your Egan ancestors from Laoise. My 3great grandmother Mary Eagan. (Born around 1800s). Married John Flaherty and had daughter Maria (b abt 1840)- this info was pulled from her dc. I have had my moms dna tested and been able to successfully trace a good number 4C level matches to a Egan family members of new castle county Pennsylvania. There is some info on Ancestry to suggest that these Egans originated from Laoise including a baptismal record I have for a Maria Flaherty born 1841 to John and Mary flaherty. I think your egans and my egans are somehow related. Feel free to reach out to me to i am on Ancestry user name
