I am trying to find some links to my Great-grandfather; Patrick H. Finneran. For some reason the extra "n" was dropped. Recorded in a parish centennial book is some information: Patrick's mother and father were Catherine and John, both of County Galway. Patrick was born Feb. 4th, 1864 in Kilbegnet, Roscommon; he married Bridget Mathers (possibly Madders)in 1864. Bridget is noted to have been from Glenamadda. My father has stated that Patrick came over with some siblings also. This was in 1866, where he moved to Scarton, PA, then to Whiteside county, ILL and finally setteled in Vail, IA. They had 14 children: Mary, Timothy, Bridget(Bessie), Catherine(Katie), Margaret(Maggie), John(Johnnie), Anna Mae, James, Patrick, William, Martin, Michael, Harry, Charles. I have the children's approximate dates of birth/death and whom they married. I would appreciate any inquiry or information regarding any and everything Finneran/Fineran related.

Since you know that Patrick was born in 1864 in
Kilbegnet Parish, Co. Roscommon, I went looking for
his birth registration in government records. During
1864 I found only one Patrick Fineran birth registered
in Co. Roscommon. It was registered in Athlone
Registration District. This registration is on
page 7 of volume 8 of 1864 births. Volume 8 is
on LDS microfilm number: FHL 0101087.

You seem to know just about everything about his
birth except his townland, and the government
birth registration would supply that.

Glenamaddy Poor Law Union is located just north
of Kilbegnet Parish. You can see them via the
map page on this site.

Mr. Voyles,
Thanks for the great information. I made an error when I posted the original message about my Great-grandfather's birthday. I have two records that state he was born in 1840 in Galway, and in his Obituary, it states he was born Feb. 25th, 1845 in Kilbegnet, Roscommon. Very confusing and difficult since I don't have the ability to access any hard-copy records. Thanks again!!
