My GG <br>grandfather married Cecilia Daly in 1845 in Arcarne and I believe from <br>a previous posting that the Owen in Question was married in 1844.<p>Thanks for the info.<p>Ed. Gaffney<p><p>

Gaffney<p>I have taken that McLaughlin list and sorted as much as possible by <br>family. I didn't find a listing for the McLaughlin-Gaffney marriage but <br>I am curious about which McLaughlin family she is from.<br>My ggparents were Patrick McLaughlin & Hanora (Ann) Winters. I know they<br>must be buried in the Rutland, Vt area but have been unable to locate<br>them. Father Gaffney, pastor at St Peters in Rutland, was born in County<br>Longford, Ireland. I have part of the mewspaper Obit for him.<p>I'll keep your posting in case I find anything.<br>Rosemary<p>
