MEEHAN-MCSHARRY
Posted: Wed Mar 30, 2005 12:16 pm
My grandmother, Ellen Meehan, was baptized in Kilmore, Cloonclare, Leitrim in November,1871. Her parents were Patrick Meehan and Catherine McSharry.
I did find a sister of Ellen on the LDS site stating that she (Bridget) was born in Manorhamilton in 1866.
I also know of another sister, Margaret (born 1870), who lived near my grandmothers home in New York City.
I believe that Ellen immigrated to America at the beginning of the 20th century (possibly 1902).
My grandmother always said that she came from a very large family and that a sister arrived first and that that unnamed sister eventually paid for her other sibling's passages.
I would be extremely grateful in finding out any information about any of the above individuals, but especially any birth or marriage information about Patrick Meehan and Catherine McSharry.
Thank you.
