Dear  francesca41

Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!

As you can see from the link below, the Hanrahan surname was numerous in Co. Clare and neighbouring counties in the 19^th Century:

Do you know if Patrick married in Ireland or elsewhere? The Clare Local Studies Library was a wide range of sources that may prove helpful: http://www.clarelibrary.ie/eolas/library/local-studies/locstudi1.htm

We too are searching this line of ancestry. We know that Patrick Donahoe married a Bridget O'Loughlin who was born around 1810 in Ireland. However, she died in Iowa, USA in 1883 but there is no record that Patrick followed her to the USA.

Their daughter, Mary Donahoe (DOB 1/30/1834 in Ireland) married a Daniel Hanrahan (YOB around 1825 in Ireland and emigrated to Iowa, USA around 1850). They both died in Burlington, IA. Daniel n 1895 and Mary in 1912. 

Could this be the same line yur researching? If so, which of Daniel & Mary Hanrahan's children are you related to? Would love to hear from you.
