Mitchel family
My great grandmother, Mary Mitchel Heffernan emigrated to the US in 1886 at the age of 16. Her parents were John Mitchel (1831-1898)) &Catherine Power (1840-1911). Mary had seven siblings--Ellen, John, Martin J., Edward Paul, James, Patrick,& Peter. I know that Martin& Edward also emigrated to the US& lived in the Philadelphia area. I believe that Mary's father, John died in Terryglass. According to a 1901census record Catherine Power Mitchel lived in Ballycormuck with her son Peter whose occupation was listed as Postman. I have photos of John & Catherine as well as photographs of a home "Moat Villa". I believe that their neighbors were Misses Ann& Mary Pelly.I also have photos of the church& national school that were taken in 1960. I would be most greatful for any information about my family.
