My 2nd great grandfather is Matthew Healey b13May1838 in Ballyvourney. He emigrated to the US in 1852 from London on the Constatine to NYC. He is listed as being 15 years old and a servant. I do not know his parents or siblings (if any). I can trace his family in the US but can go no further in Ballyvourney. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Welcome to ireland Reaching Out!

    See thr record transcription which I located on Roots Ireland. Can you locate Matthew's death record and see if his parents names are listed so we can confirm this record? There were three siblings to this Matthew and maybe more  Patrick 1826 Bridget 1836 Joan 1841 Possibly the last record was John?

    Let me know.
