Taylor from Limerick

Hi Shannon

Thank you for sharing your information. Do you have have any information about where in Limerick Ellen was from? To find any records here it would be essential to find a place name of origin. : Do you know much about their emigration? The dates, the reason why they left, who they may have travelled with?..etc..Generally more information was given at the port of arrival rather than the port of departure which in your case is NY. This could be a good place to find more information. -And perhaps even find out an exact place of origin. Here are a list of websites that may help you further your research:

I hope this is of some help to you.Remember to post as much information as you can with regard to the people you are researching. The more information you post, the more likely it is that one of our volunteers will be able to advise or assist you. Also include information concerning which sources you may have already used so others may further your search.
