I am looking for information on Patrick Harrigan born in Castlebar, Mayo County in 1788 and migrated to Australia where he married and had a family. The family tree goes on. He died in 1831 in Yass NSW, Australia.
I am interested in any information on Patrick's Irish history.
Any help would be appreciated.
Regards
Terri Harrigan

It will be difficult to find records related to Patrick. RC records for Aglish RC parish which covers Castlebar start in 1824. I checked Roots Ireland and they do not have any Harrigan records for Aglish parish. I checked the Tithe Applotment listings for Co. Mayo and there was only one entry a Bartley Harigan from Woodville in Kilfian parish which is a good deal north from Castlebar. I also listed the Harrigan records from the 1856 Griffiths Valuation which are below.
