O'Rourke Surname

Post by Diane Hanke »

Am looking for any information on Hugh O'Rourke b.1812 <br>or Catherine O'Donnell b. 1822. His parents were Hugh<br>O'Rourke and Mary Dillon. Have no information on where<br>in Ireland there were from. But I do know that Hugh and<br>Catherine had one child James Henry O'Rourke born in<br>Bridgeport, CT, USA in 1850.<p>Thanks in advance for any help.<p>
