W illiam Henry Cascadden/Corscadden born on Feb 14 1773, left ireland approximately 1790 with his two brothers James and Hugh? and sailed for america. Looking for his parents names. Family history by word of mouth says he was from Donegal/Drumholm area. Don't think they were catholic and were of scot/irish descent.
Hi Cheryl, my name is Carmel O'Callaghan & while I dont have any information about your family I do know that locally there is "The Cabra Castle Hotel" Kingscourt, Co. Cavan & it is owned by the Corscadden family, if you wish to write to Howard, he may be able to help you, the hotel has a website. Best Wishes Carmel
