A shot in the dark<p>My grandmother's youngest sister May Prior from Ballinamore, Leitrim- married a Charlie O'Rourke, I assume from the same area. They had at least one child, Raymond. The last I knew they were still in Ireland, though there is question that May and Charlie may have passed away. The last contact I'm aware of was at the time of my grandmother's death in 1987. Raymond may be in Boston. If you can make connections to Charles O'Rourke and May (Prior) O'Rourke- please pass on the info.

My name is Peter Buckley My Great-Grandfather came over from County Leitrim Ireland to New York-his name is Peter O'Rourke-he had brothers named Dan Michael and Frank-he might have had some other siblings but I'm not really sure-I know I still have relatives in Leitrim named Desmond and J.J. O'Rourke-there are many more but those are the only 2 names i could think of-If anybody thinks that that could be who they are looking for-contact me and I'll give you more info-i really don't have any birthdates on me now or other more helpful info-but if you think these people could be who you are looking for-contact me at PeteyBoy98@aol.com-thanks

I would like to thank all the O'Rourkes out there for writing. There does not seem to be a match as yet, but I will keep digging!<br>Tom<p>
