Durkans from Mayo?
MayoKilgeever (Mayo)
I am interested in finding out if I have any distant relatives still in the Westport Ireland area. My grandfather, William Durkan, was born in Louisburgh in April 1896. My grandmother, Bridget Agnes Basquel, was born in Westport in March 1901. What I know about my great-grandparents: William's father was James Durkan and his mother was Ellen Riley. Bridget's father was Thomas Basquel and her mother was Margaret Mc Ging. My grandfather went to America in 1925. I am not sure about my grandmother. They met in America. I am planning on moving to Westport from America in two or three years and would be excited to meet some cousins :) Thanks!
