Patrick and Ellen HIGGINS, Boyle 1865 and before

[Pat]

My Great Grandfather, Patrick HIGGINS left Ireland for the United States, possibly from Boyle, Roscommon, in 1865, with his wife Ellen and first child, 1 year old son Edward. I believe the location to be Boyle as that is where Edward was born 28 Feb 1964. This is all of the information I have. Probably these people were Roman Catholic. Anything would be appreciated. <p>email to pinetree@telepath.com

Updated info regarding Patrick and Ellen (McDERMOTT) HIGGINS. They left Ireland, probably from Boyle, Roscommon (don't know just which Boyle this refers to but probably RC parish) in 1865. With them were their three children, Anna, born about 1856, Catherine, born about 1861, and Edward born 28 Feb 1864 (according to his obituary information).<p>As the 1880 US Federal census lists Patrick as 50 and Ellen as 44, he was probably born around 1830 and she around 1836. I don't know where either might have been born.<p>Does anyone have access to marriage records, probably RC, possibly in Boyle? Will those records give any information about the parents of Patrick and Ellen as I don't know who they are?
