  • The only Treacy I knew in Shinrone was an undertaker, would this be the family?

  • Hello Henry,

    I'm not certain if there was an undertaker in the family - I was told that they were farmers.

    Would you know the first name of the undertaker and the dates of his birth / death?

    Thanks!

    Margaret

  • Margaret was my grandfather Denis's sister.  She emigrated to Castle Garden (NYC) in 1888 on the SS Germanic, with her mother and 6 siblings.
