Dear kd

It might be a good idea to consider what further information you can find at your end. Was rootsireand of use in finding out about siblings of John or Bridget and perhaps take you back a generation by tracking any potential children of those siblings?

Best wishes

Here is an incredible resource I received about the journey of the Hanrahans. It is a book called "From the hills of Monaleen : The story of the Hanrahans". Please feel free to download, print, and share this book as I scanned it and uploaded it for that reason.
