Hi - My great grandfather Thomas Flanagan was born in Tulla County Clare in 1835, he was the son of Martin & Johanna Flanagan Nee Hanrakan. Thomas migrated with his brother James on the ship Northern Light, arriving in Australia 9 May 1858.
My sister Carol & I have just returned from a trip to Ireland & we visited Tulla & the kind library staff gave us some sites to try & find out more.
My grandfather was Martin John was born 31 December 1869 at Woodford Island on the Clarence River in New South Wales, Australia.
My father Leslie Wallace was the 12th & last child born to he & Jane Ross. Dad was born on 11 February 1916.

Hi, Welcome to IrelandXO
Below is a link to a birth record for Michael born 16 May 1835, Spelt Michl born to Martin Flanigan & Judy Hanrahan. It may help you find records for Thomas (Thos) and James (Jas). Were they younger or older.

The townland name is possibly Afflick, a number of Hanrahan families still residing there in 1901.
Best of luck in your research. Gerlish

Hello - I'm not sure if I'm in the right parish for a John Flanagan from Tullycrine? He married Mary Waters (also from Tullycrine) in 1873 and then emigrated to USA. Any advice?
