James Burke immigrated to Brooklyn NY 1875

Hi:

Many thanks for your query.  I can take a look for you with regard to James Burke. Do you have his parents' names?  If so, that would be a great help, as well as a birthdate.   What dates will you be in Ireland?  We can arrange to meet you and possibly show you a home place or headstone if they exist?  Please let me know either through the message board or through email at tulla@irelandxo.com.

In the meantime, you can also try searching through the Clare County Library website at www.clarecountylibrary.ie/genealogy.  They have a lot of very useful resources and might be of interest to you. 

If you find a birthdaate or parents' names, I will be able to make a more thorough search in our local register here.

Many thanks for your interest in Ireland Reaching Out.  If you have not already joined the web page, please do so.

Kind regards,

Jane.

Hi Jane

  I believe that James was born in 1852, and that his mothers name may have been Margaret.  Thank you so much for your help.  We are going to be staying in Doolin July 13-20 and I was thinking about coming over to Tulla on Wednesday 7/17.  I would so love to see anything that you may be able to find related to my family.

Hi:

I will have a look for you. I will plan on meeting you on the 17th.  You can email me at tulla@irelandxo.com when you arrive. In the meantime, I will let you know what I find.

all the best,

jane
