Also,<br>: looking for description of life in the Lough Glynn<br>: area during the early and middle 19th centuries, <br>: especially around time of famine. <p>My great grandmother, Mary Flanagan, came from Frenchpark, County Roscommon, Ireland...Born 21 March 1865. Baptised in St. Patrick's, Elphin.<br>Father was Patrick Flanagan. I think he was a tailor by trade. Mother was Catherine McNeil Mary’s baptismal sponsors were Michael Casserley and Bridget Connor.

She had the following siblings:<br>Edward (Ned) b.1867, John, Bridgit, Ellie, Patrick, Joseph, James, Margaret and Kate.<br>Bridgit died at age 20 buried in Cloonshanville.<br>Brother Ned was in the IRC and stationed in Kerry in late 1890’s.<br>Sister Ellie emigrated to Phila.<br>Another brother emigrated to San Diego or Los Angeles area and was a Realtor in early 1900’s.<br>As far as I know, the rest of them stayed in Ireland.<p>I also have a g-g-grandmother, Julia Duffy, who was born in Ireland (I don’t know where) about 1837. She died in Coaldale, Pa. 1893 having married twice: James Keenan and James McDermott. She was survived by these children:<br>Charles John Keenan (died 1893 Phila., PA)<br>Mary Ann Keenan Miller (Lehighton, PA)<br>Grace Keenan Gorman (NYC)<br>Julia McDermott Edwards (Watertown, CT)<br>Rose McDermott Bull (Bayonne, NJ)<br>Hannah McDermott (Coaldale, PA)<br>Peter McDermott (Coaldale/Macungie/Phila., PA)<p>Any connections?<br>
