Hello
I have traced my ancestor John Gannon born in 1828 and died in 1913. He married Mary Nolan in 1868 and his father is listed as Michael Gannon.
I am trying to find records to identify his siblings and parents, please.
I have found some records but not enough to piece it all together.
Any advice would be much appreciated.
Thank you
I checked the subscription site Roots Ireland and the earliest John Gannon baptismal record with father Michael was in 1835 in Drumraney RC parish. The baptismal records for Clara/Horseleap RC parish do not begin until 1845 so if John Gannon was baptized in that parish, a record would not be available.
I checked the 1854 Griffiths Valuation for Ardnurcher civil parish and there was a John Gannon listed in Streamstown townland. Perhaps this record is for a relative of John Gannon (1828). No Michael Gannon was listed.
The 1868 marriage was held in Ballymore RC parish to the northwest from Clara/Horseleap. Ballymore would have been Mary's parish. John was shown as living in Castletown.
Let me know if you have any questions.
