Searching for Egan Family

MayoKilmore (Mayo)

 

I'm not certain the parish is correct, I have a page from a book stating that Anne Egan was from Tullyhady County Tipperary, Ireland and born in 1765.  She had a daughter Margaret who married John Colligan.  They all lived in Emmet, Wisconsin when Ann (or Anna) died Dec 1, 1874 at the age of 109.  

 

Does anyone know if this is the "right" parrish and how can I find my Egan ancestors?

The townland spelling is Tullahedy in Kilmore parish. I checked the 1850 Griffiths Valuation head of household listing and found three Egan entries and their townlands.Egan            James               Ballycahill         Kilmore     Tipperary
Egan            Mrs. ???            Curragharneen       Kilmore     Tipperary
Egan            Thomas              Carrow              Kilmore     Tipperary        No Egans in Tullahedy in the 1901 census.
