My great-grandmother Mary Beirne Edwards was born in Carrick-on-Shannon on 6-17-1872 to Elizabeth Neary Beirne and Francis Beirne. Francis Beirne was born in Carrick-on-Shannon in 1830, all I have is his father's name is John Beirne. My grandmother Mary Beine had a sister Bridget 4/20/1881, who died at 7 years of menegitis, and a brother Joseph Thomas Beirne 12/22/1878, who just seemed to have disappeared! Mary Beirne's mother died at the age of 36 in 1882, and her father died in 1889 just shy of my ggrandmothers 17th birthday. We have no information on Joseph Thomas Beirne or any other Beirne relatives. I know Francis Beirne was a grocer and his resided in Carrick-on-Shannon. Please let me know if any of these names ring a bell with you or any of your relatives.<br>Regards,
