Drummey and Maher

WaterfordDungarvan (Waterford)

Dear Ireland XO, 

 

My great Grandfather John Drummey emigrated to the United States in 1913 and married Julia Maher/Magher (different spellings in different records). the 1901 census had them on SHears Streeet in Abbeyside. His siblings with the same Surname are as follows Alice, Anastsia, Jmaes, Patrick, Maurice, and Augustine. I had study abroad in Ireland and was able to visit the village during my town there. I have been curiuous to see if any of the sibilings had stayed or if any family remained in Ireland. His daughter, Alice Howard, is my grandmother and had been in cotact with some family but that was long ago. My grandfather has the surename Howard and his mother's maiden name was Donovan somewhere around Oountry Cork. I would love to discover if I have any long lost cousins that still remain in Ireland. Thank you in advance to help help and insights this group may bring. 

 

Best, 

J. Rogers

Interestingly;  I do know the Dungarvan Drummy's

There were some Maher's Born in Abbeyside, but no Julia before 1879.

I can contact my Drummy friend for you.
