Looking for relatives of my great great grandmother Sabina Miskill born in Kilchreest, Loughrea, Galway. April 3, 1870. Her father is Thomas Miskill and her mother is Sarah (Sally) Madden. Looking to go back futher than her parents. I think her grandfather was Thaddeus Miskill.
Diane, How much do you know about the family?
Did Sabina leave Ireland?

Hi Margot,
Sabina came to America around 1889. She married Michael Moran in Brooklyn NY about 1892. She had 12 children that I know of only 4 lived to adulthood, one being my great grandmother Elizabeth Irene.Sabina died in Brooklyn NY in 1912.She had 8 siblings that I know of. Michael also came to New York and I believe her sister Mary but I am still working on that. Her other siblings were Thomas, John,Catherine,Bridget ,Sarah and Martin.

Thomas the father must have had a brother called Michael there is a marriage of Catherine, his daughter in the same area as Thomas.
If you use this site below

You should be able to follow on the Collins / Miskill names.
Births up to 1919 (last time I looked)
Marriages up to 1944.
Then use
