Gannon's of Kilkenny

KilkennyErke (Kilkenny)

I am looking for any information on the Michael Gannon family. Michael married Mary O'Toole. They had 9 children. Margaret (b. 1828 ) Richard ( b. 1829 ) Mary ( b. 1831 ) Bridget ( b. 1833 ) James (b. 1835 ) William ( b. 1837 ) Daniel ( b. 1837 ) Judy ( b. 1842 ) Anastatia ( b. 1844 ).

Michaels parents are : Richard Gannon Margaret Delany

Michael's Brother : John Gannon Wife : Anastatia Fleming

These are dates that I got off of someone elses tree and would like to verifyand obtain sources.

Thank you for your help!

The RC parish for the civil parish of Erke is Johnstown and the records go back to 1814. I searched the Johnstown records on Roots Ireland www.rootsireland.ie and found a record for Margaret, Richard and Mary for the years mentioned above in the Johnstown records. The parents were Michael and Mary. I assume the other children are also there.

Roots is a pay site to view a transcription of a church record. I did not locate the marriage.

Im trying to contact the family of Michael Gannon from Co Mayo who left Ireland for Scotland, then went to USA.
I'm a bit sketchy about the dates, but believe he was born in the 1800's and travelled to the USA circa 1924?
Any information would be gratefully received.
