Connelly/Kerrigan
Searchig for information on my emigrant ancestor Maurice Connelly and his brother John who left Ireland for Canada, then the United States (Detroit, Michigan) around 1850. Maurice's father was possibly named John Connelly from that same area of Limerick. I do not know his mother's name but it may be Mary. Maurice married Hannah Kerrigan or Keargan but I do not have record of their marriage or any information about Hannah's family in Ireland. They were married about 1839-41 in Ireland. I have christening records of their children Catherine (1843), John (1847), Thomas (1848) and Maurice (1851) all from Cragmore, Askeaton. Several other children were born in the U.S. I have information that they lived in the townland of Cragmore. It is possible that Maurice had another brother named William Connelly.
I am looking for any other records, information on his wife Hannah's surname and her family, location of their property and any living descendents in the area. In other words, anything!
