My great, great, grandfather, Michael Fiztpatrick, 10/26/1806-01/01/1900, whose mother was a Curry, came to New York City, USA around 1840. His wife, my grandmother, Mary Welsh Fitzpatrick, 05/02/1811-05/13/1884, came to the USA when she was about 12 years old. They married in NYC on 04/06/1846 and moved to Potter County, Pennsylvania, USA where I presently live. I would love to connect with my Irish family.
Hi Mary,
Thank you for your message, I hope that someone makes a connection with you through the message board.
It may also be a good idea to place this message in a more local forum such as a local newsletter or newspaper in the hope that any Fitzpatricks in the area will see it. Some places where you possibly may be able to do this are:
Kilkenny People: http://www.kilkennypeople.ie/
Kilkenny Advertiser: http://www.advertiser.ie/kilkenny
The Kilkenny Reporter: http://kilkennyreporter.ie/
I hope that this suggestion is helpful.
Best wishes,
