Hi,
I am researching Redmon Cosgrove who was born about 1803. I see that the parish registers do not go that far back. He may have brothers named Patrick and Timothy. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I believe he immigrated to the US around 1840.
Thank you,
Rosemary
Rosemary:
Was Redmond Cosgrove married when he left Ireland? The subscription site Roots Ireland has baptismal records for Eleanor(1823), John(1829) and James(1830) Cosgrove with a father Redmond.
The RC parish was Newry Co. Down. The mother was shown as Anne Cosgrove or Anne McCabe.
Have you tested your DNA?
