Igoe

 Hi

I am trying to get information on my 2nd great grandfather and his family.

From the information I have his name was James Igoe (born about 1802 - died March 8, 1877) No details of parents

Was located in Kelleter, Killoe Parish, County Longford and believe he married Rose Ann Mahon (b April 1795, D July 17 1872) and believe they had three children Daniel (B 1835), Patrick James (b about 1848) and John (B1839) 

Have reached a dead end and would welcome any information.

Gratefully accept any guidance

I searched on the subscription site Roots Ireland and located a December 6 1833 marriage between James Igo and Rose Ann Mahon at Killoe RC parish.

I also found three baptismal records in Killoe for children Ann 1834 Catherine 1839 Thomas 1842 There was also a record for a John in 1837 but the mother was shown as Bridget.

James Igo in Killeter is shown in the 1854 Griffith's Valuation of Longford. Note there is a Mahon family on the same page.
