My grandmother, Ellen Pierce, emigrated from Duagh approximately in 1897. She was born Sept 18, 1872. Her parents were James Pierce and Johanna Barry. I am looking for any information about her and her family. I will be traveling to Ireland next year and would like to learn about them before my arrival.
