  • Hi Danny  . . Welcome to Ireland reaching Out  . . . 

    Maybe a " Clare " volunteer will pick up on this . . your query . . as I am a distance from Clare . . BUT . . 

    here's what I have found on " Ancestry.Com " in a quick search . . . 

    The original Family . . Michael// Ann . . show up in Church records . . as follows . . .

    Catherine Fennell

     in the Ireland, Catholic Parish Registers, 1655-1915

      Church Records for Newmarket on Fergus . . . are available . . as follows . . . (diifacult to read - )

      It would help in YOUR search . . of the records . . if you had a MONTH in 1860 . . when Patrick was born . . 

      USE the ' Filter // Dates' in top left hand corner . . . 

      The marriage records are all there ( 1828 - 1865 ) . . BUT . . what year were Michael // Anne married ???

      Was Patrick // Margaret . . married . . in Ireland or the U.S.   . . another area you will have to tease out  ???

      Ellis Island records ONLY start in 1892 . . . so . . its diffacult to track his / their emigration  . . . 

      ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

       

      Sorry I couldn't be of more help  . . . BUT . . if you persist with the Church Records . . you may strike gold  . . .

    • Hi Eamonn

      Thanks for quick response   Michael and Ann were married Oct 19 1853 in Kilnasoolagh    I beleive Patrick and Margaret were married in NYC   I am hoping to ascertain if any family still exists there     I believe they lived on Six Mile Bridge   I was hoping that maybe they knew each other in Clare and married here?    I see there are loads of McNamaras in Clare   I think that her father was John and mother was Catherine     

       

      Thanks   Dan   danielpsheridan@gmail.com
