My Grandfather, Great Grandfather and Great Great Grandfather were all named Luke Frain. They were married to Mary Duffey, Mary Sweeney and Elizabeth Bird, respectively. I know the siblings of my grandfather who were John, Patrick, Martin, and Mary - all born in Durham, England. Their father was from Co. May and their mother was from Co. Leitrim. Have you been able to make any connection to the Luke Frains? They were located around Ballaghaderreen, Co. Mayo then, and Co. Roscommon after 1898. I am still looking for siblings of my great and great great grandfathers and grandmothers, as well. If you wish to reply, e-mail me at jfrain@prodigy.net . Take note that I have refurbished my Frain web page. Check it out at http://www.jfrain.addr.com/ . Joe
