I am trying to pinpoint where in Galway the ancestors were from. 

Lawrence Tiernan b.~1794  married Mary Gaffney b. ~1796.

Children:

Female unknown

John b~1825-1830

Martin b~1825-1827

James b 12 Aug 1828

Catherine b 12 Aug 1832/1833

emigrated to America on ship Elizabeth Hamilton Apr 1849

Roman Catholic

Catherine's obituary says she was from Cfreegs, Galway

Martin's NY emigrant bank record says he was from Moate/Monte, County Galway.

Any ideas or help will be appreciated.

  • Hi K

    There is a baptism record of Mary Gaffney Galway 1801 on www.rootsireland.ie/

    The parish is Tuam RC

    The site charges to view the full record which MAY have the parents' names

    No luck with Lawrence or the marriage record I'm afraid
