  • Looking for information:  My great-grandfather, Michael H. Russell was, I am told, from Tipperary, Ireland.  I estimate him to be born around 1836 and I'm guessing he immigrated to the United States in the early 1850s.  He came to Baltimore, Maryland.  He married a woman named Mary Radford, whose obituary states she was from County Wexford.  They had 8 children:  Peter, Mary, Ellen, Catherine, Margaret, Lizzie, Anna, and Joe.

    Please contact me about the family if you like more information. I have a lot more. But I would very much like to know more of their history in Ireland. How did they survive during the starving years. Are the Foleys who live in Slaght now my relatives.  

    Thank you in advance,
