Hi Mike I've been in contact with some cousins to see if they knew any more about our irish connections and one of them said he went to Ireland in 1948 with his parents and grandmother (Michael and Mary's daughter Annie) and they stayed in Sallynoggin, near Dun Laoghaire with relatives, but unfortunately he didnt remember how they were related. He said one cousin was surnamed Coghlan so obviously he was related to Michael. I see that the church there has been replaced so is there any way of finding the records from the old church? In 1948 I believe the church was St Kevins but that was only built in 1927 so I dont know what was there before. Thanks for your help. Pat |
