Is there anyone with access to the parish records at Ardagh?
Since I moved to Australia I cannot visit again
I am looking into two local families, the Connor's and the McGarry's
My grandmother was born and raised in Rabbit Park and baptised at St Brigids, Ardagh.
Her name was MARY CATHERINE CONNOR (Molly) 1912-74
Her parents where Patrick and Anne Connor (Murphy)
I would really like to find out what happened to the family, my nan was sent to England in 1926 and as far as I know only went back once some 40 years later.
