Hi! My ancestors are Peter Sweeney, born May 1817 in Bellakip, wife Sarah (Sally) McGuire born 1815 in Aughaval. They were pioneers in Dubuque County, Iowa, USA. Immigrated about 1850. Happy to exchange information.

A friend of mine from "Mayo Genealogy Group" is doing a course on Genealogy in Lousiburgh this week and next. If you are on facebook, you could join our group and see if someone may have some connections for you.
