Foleys in Newtown Anderson

SligoCalry (Sligo)

I see reference to a Michael Foley in a newspaper article dated 1836 living in Newtown Anderson. Does anyone have any information on Foleys living in this area?

Dear Larry:

 

Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out and many thanks for your query to the message board. 

Do you have any other information that you can share such as a date of birth, parents' names?

 

Kind regards,

 

Jane.

Dear Jane:

 

Michael Foley and his wife Mary lived in Co. Sligo from 1805 to 1850. Michael was a stone mason. His son John aka Michael emigrated to Wolverhampton, Eng. in the 1850s. I am not sure if his parents also went. John later emigrated to Ohio.

I see a newspaper article about a Michael Foley living in Newtown Anderson and would like to learn more about him on a hunch. For many years I have searched all records that I can but haven't found anything definite.

Thanks for the reply.

Larry Foley
