Sweeney, Henry surname possibly from Boyle, Roscommon

Post by michaelb »

Trying to find any connections for Thomas Sweeney and Bridget Henry who were married in the Boyle Roman Catholic church on October 25, 1821. Bridget's mother's surname was given as Gaffiney. Witnesses were George Sweeney and James ??. I found a reference to Thomas as Thomanan and believe that some of his siblings had similar Latin spellings such as Patricus, Georgius, and Martinus. Thomas and Bridget immigrated to England around 1840 and followed some of their sons to the United States several years later. I understand that they ended up in Boardentown, New Jersy where they lived out their remaining years. Any information or leads would be greatly appreciated. Thanks :)
