Sadly my dad died on the 20th June 2002 and just had his burial on the 2nd of July 2002. My dad's name is Chris and his brothers are Patrick (RIP) Jimmy, Joe and Tony. His sister is May. I have been researching the family tree for about 2 years. My dad was really proud of what I achieved and I was able to go back to My Great Grandparents the Farrells and Phillips who lived nearby in Tobracken. My dad and his family lived in Ballaghderren during the late 1920's to the early 1950's. I intend to carry on my research in memory of my dad, who was a great inspiration to me. Please contact through this site only as my E-mail link has been down for some time. TRACEY xxxx

There are several of my Finn ancestors who appear to have disappeared off the face of the earth, as I'm sure you will find in your own research. Many times I find myself going through the 1901 census and the Griffiths Valuation looking at ALL the Roscommon Finns and wondering if any of them could be part of my family that moved and took up residence in an adjacent Townland. If we pool our data, it might help to eliminate some of these questions that we will all eventually end up asking ourselves at some point in our research. Please contact me by email and we can start an exchange of Finn data that could hopefully be of use to one, or all of us in our research.Ed Finn efinn@leitrim-roscommon.com

Hi Chris My G/Dad Anthony Finn b1902 was from Bockagh Hill, in Ballaghaderren. Anthony was one of 5 children - John Joseph b1898, Michael b1899, James b1901, Anthony b1902,and Patrick b1907. Their parents were James Finn snr b1868 and Anne Finn nee O'Donnell. I believe Tracey has also been in contact with you. Tracey is my second cousin - we found each other by tracing the "Finn's Family Tree". As Tracey is having problems with her email, I will pass any correspondence to her. I do hope some of the above names are familiar, in particular Patrick who we are finding extremely difficult to trace, as it is believed he emigrated to America. Good Luck with your research, I look forward to hearing from you.

Hello Everyone,I have recently taken an active interest in trying to trace my family origins. Unfortunately most of the churches containing my family records have burned down over the last century leaving most of my family in the dark about our history. I come from a long line of Finns from Spaniard's Bay, Newfoundland, Canada. I have been on the other side of the country for several years and I have not kept in contact with most of my family and even had I, our family never seems to discuss our family origins and none of the surviving members know much of our history.Do any of you know of the origins of the Finn Family in Spaniard's Bay, Newfoundland, Canada? My grandfather Ron Finn (whom passed away in 1974) had two brothers Richard and Thomas, I believe. I have found a few marriage records referring to a Patrick Finn in the early to mid-1800s and Anastasia Finn in 182(1/2) amd a reference to a labourer Thomas Finn of Spaniard's Bay in 1898. This is pretty scant information so far, If you have any hints or suggestions, the would be appreciated.-Ron Finn
