Searching For My Roots Near Drumboylan Townland, Co. Roscommon (Off the R284)

I am Bill McDermott from Santa Cruz, CA, USA.

- My Grandmother was Catherine Agnes Gaffrey from Drumboylan Townland, Co. Roscommon. Her father was Michael Gaffrey (Gaafry/Gaffry) depending on the documents reviewed. It was Gaffrey on his death certificate (4 June 1917).

-I have spent time in Ireland and got Michael's marriage and death certs. as well asthe birth certs. for many of his children.

- I was unable to locate any cemetery markers for him, his wife (Anne Moffit, death: 30 May 1921), or either of the children that did not emigrate. Those were Margaret (b: 21/8/1876) and Elizabeth (b: 23/7/1885-d: abt.1957 (both in Drumboylan)who married (abt. 1915) Michael Regan (b: abt. 1871-d: Unknown). This is the primary information I will be looking for. I will be in the area 1 April - 20 April 2015.

- Drumboylan Townland is an area around St. Patrick's Church, just beyond Battle Bridge on the R284, from Leitrim to Kideau.

- If you have the time and any suggestions, I can probably be best reached at <billmcdermott@mac.com>.

Thank You for your time, Sincerely,

Bill McDermott
