Mike,
In your first post you mentioned Fivemiletown - I assumed (perhaps incorrectly) that you got this from the 1901 census and that is the family I gave information on. I do not see how that Jennings family could be connected to an Annie Duggan born in 1874 and had immigrated by 1884.
Have you satisfied yourself that the Ancestry entry is accurate? If it is correct and that Annie Duggan is your grandmother then I think it is highly likely that you have the wrong Jennings family.

Hi Jim I think you are right , sorry to spin your wheels , I have to get more solid information . Note: I am positive on Annie Agnes Duggan / or Dugan ?? as I went to the grave sight in Centralia Pennsylvania where the Jennings US Family is buried , She married James Thomas Jennings in 1895. and a James H Jennings what was born in Ireland and was married to a Mary Ann Darrah .
Jim - Ancestry says that there are DNA Links to Sligo / Mayo / Connacht . I reached out to people in the Jennings family and received some info / Note: The Sensitive part in all this is / I was adopted in 1944 and my Biological Father Thomas L Jennings who I have a copy of his birth certificate and proof from the adoption agency that he is my farther / he never mentioned me or my twin Sister / AKA Two Ships In The Night !! I have visited the family the grave sights and met with people in Centralia who knew him.
I appreciate you help and I did look at the link you sent me / I just have to pin down the FACTS !!!
Thank you my Friend .
