Related Surname Info: My name is Bill Lavin. I live in Shrewsbury, Massachusetts, USA. I too have a great grandfather Patrick who married Margaret Gaffney.
I have a little info from relatives on the family. My father\'s father was David one of the 13 and my father was Joseph. If you are from James\' family I would guess that your mother was Mary? Info I have is that James had 4 children, one boy, Patrick and 3 girls; Kitty (Brock), Margaret (Regan), and Mary???
I would love to share info. Tom McAlinden, if this is indeed your family please post and I will respond.
