Kilbeagh Egan and Harrington mystery (McNulty, Walsh)

MayoKilbeagh (Mayo)

My greatgrandfather wasJohn Joseph (Jack)Egan 1859-1930born in LeCarrow to Bryan Egan and Catherine Harrington. Theresa Resino, Michelle Yuffreda-Beretsky (who are cousins)and Ihave DNA in common, and all have ancestors from Kilbeagh. They are not related to the Egans, so they have to be related through the Harringtons. I'm looking for more information on marriages between Harringtons & McNultys and possibly Walshes to figure out the relationships between myself, Theresa and Michelle.I believe Catherine's mother was a Horan but I haven't found any definitive records.

Hello again!

I just checked on Roots Ireland and there were no Harrington marriages to a McNulty or Walsh in Kilbeagh/Charlestown parish or in Carracastle parish.

The Kilbeagh/Charlestown records for marriages start in 1845 so if the marriage was pre-1845 there is no record available.
