I come from the Higgins and Egan families near Galway

My sister-in-law and I are coming to Ireland Sept. 2020. Herancestors are from Cork. Mine are from Galway, Patrick Higgins (1841) and son Laurence (1912). Also, Mary E. Egan (1870) and her father George (1850).

Any advice to find relatives would be great. I am on ancestry.com too.

Thanks.

Hi Miriam,

Patrick Higgins married Bridget Haverty in 1874 in Glenamaddy.  That's all I know.  Their child, Laurence Higgins, married Mary Egan on Nov. 6, 1907 (in Massachusetts).

Mary Egan's parents were George Egan and Catherine Hardiman.  I don't know where they were born - yet!

Thanks for trying.

Hi LizD:

Will you please let me know if you would like one of our volunteers to meet with you when you visit the Galway and/or Cork areas next year?

 

A very Happy New Year to you and your family.

 

Kind regards,

 

Jane

Hi Jane,

Yes, that would be wonderful. As soon as I know the confirmed dates, I will let you know when we will be arriving in Galway.

Thanks!
