  • Hi there. I think I can help. My great grandfather was Bernard Roe from Cannon Row, Navan, born 1871 to Thomas Roe, who was a miller. I think Michael and Bernard were brothers. Bernard moved to Cork too.

  • Hello-

    Sorry it took me so long to reply. I may be in touch with another distant relative of yours who lives in the UK, also related through Bernard Roe. Yes, I believe Michael is the oldest son of Thomas Roe and Julia Commons. I would definitely be interested in exchanging Roe family genealogy with you.
