Looking for any members of Connolly family from Sonnagh or anyone that might know what became of them if they no longer in that area
My name is Mary Connolly and my grandmother was also Mary Connolly. She grew up in Sonnagh, Kilchreest.Co.Galway. Her fathers name was Martin Connolly and her mothers name was Bridget McTigue who I think came from the parish of Ardrahan, Co.Galway. My grandmother had 8 brothers of which there were 2 sets of twins born 1st, their names were Patrick and John Connolly and the 2nd set of twins wereMartin and Michael. As far as I know Michael is buried in Kilnadeema. There were 2 other brothers then namely Edward and Thomas born in 1876 and 1877 respectivly. From what we are trying to piece together they may have emmigrated to America circa 1900. I cant find anything else about these 2 brothers and it is their wherabouts I am trying to find out. My grandmother was next in the family born in 1879. She married a Denis Connolly from Strongfort. Craughwell, (where I also live now)Co.Galway in 1910. She had a younger sister Bridget who died when she was 6 years old. Then a brother James who I know moved to Loughrea and some other locations also. He is buried in Loughrea as is his sister Margaret. The last member of that family was Denis and he moved to Birr where he is buried. I dont know where Martin is buried. I do know that he married late in life and that they had no family. Patrick the eldest I think went to live in Gort,Co.Galway.I dont have any information on him either. Is there anyone out there that might know something about this family? And could help me or point me in the right direction of where to look for these missing men.
