Looking for Tyrone Connection

RoscommonBoyle (Roscommon)

Hello,

I hope I am in the right place. I believe that my g-g grandfather, John McCann was born in Ballyinderry in the 1820s. His parents were Charles McCann and Letitia Dillon. They emigrated to Glasgow and he married one Mary Hewitt in the 1850s.  They moved to New Jersey in the 1860s. I don't know when John or Mary died. Their children were Charles, Esther, Francis, Ann and Mary. Any info or connections would be appreciated.
