The McGinley Family Andrew, Hugh, John,Patrick,Charles

DonegalRaphoe (Donegal)

I am looking for the family of Andrew McGinley born 15 Jan 1828, to possibly John McGinley.  I have been advised that it may be Raphoe because of the name Andrew.  He and his brothers: Patrick b. 14 Feb 1825 and Charles b. 1821 arrived in the US in 1843. 

Two brothers John b. 1826 and Hugh b. 1827 remained in Ireland.

Andrew married Mary Carr b.July 1834 and also from Donegal.  They were married in the US.

Andrew and Mary returned to Ireland in the 1890's for a visit.

It will take you a while to go through the research sites, hope you find something, I am not from Donegal, so perhaps someone from the location might be able to offer more assistance.

 

Good Luck with your research
