Immediate family of T R Geraghty (1763 - 1817) Linen merchant

TyroneDungannon (Tyrone)

   I am researching T R Geraghty (1763 - 1817),  who lived in Dungannon and Dublin. I know of two sons, John 1802 and Philip 1805 but there were at least two other older children whose names and details we do not have. T R Geraghty was a member of the R C delegation, representing Dungannon, that appealed to Geo III for the removal of all restrictions on members of the R C faith in 1792/1793. It is thought that he may have been a solicitor and he was also a linen merchant. Any information pertaining to TRG (my great-great-grandfather), his children and wife would be gratefully received. I live in South Africa where there are a number of his descendants. Thank you, C J Beardwood

Hi CJ,

Thank you very much for your message. I hope that someone with information on the family makes a connection with you.

Please be patient - as our programme has only begun to rollout across the island of Ireland and volunteers in some areas may not yet be organized.
