John James Gallagher b.1855
Limerick
Hello, I am looking for any information or advice on researching my great-great grandfather John James Gallagher. Born 1855 Limerick to I believe John Gallaher and Mary Riordan. He left Ireland in about 1875 with his brother Cornelius Gallagher (b. 1857). Cornelius stayed in London while John James went on to Chicago and lived with his brother Daniel Gallagher (b. 1849).
I am curious if there is any way to find where in Limerick he may have come from and if there were any other siblings. I have done my DNA but have hit a roadblock in my research on Ancestry and I'm curious! Any advice would be great.
