Michael Gilhooley

[Carol Scott]

Michael Gilhooley is the name of my grandfather. He left Ireland around the mid 1800's. Family myths say he was from the Sligo area but I have reason to believe he may have been born in the Leitrim Roscommon area. Have tried most avenues but it is as though he never existed. Any ideas?

Take it from there.<br>

Any ideas?<p>Michael: I was born at Gortgarrigan, Leitrim and we had Gilhooleys<br>in our neighborhood too. In fact, a Carney relative of ours married<br>a Gilhooley that came to America. Did you find out anything from other<br>sources?? It's always hard with such a common name as Michael.
