Family tradition says that my great-great-grandfather was named Patrick O'Hara, and that he was a schoolmaster in a town near Mohill.

Patrick died in the famine in the 1840s, and his wife Mary (Gallagher) O'Hara and her four children (John, James, Timothy, and Terence) emigrated to Boston, Massachusetts, along with her brother and his wife (John and Katherine Gallagher).

I am a descendant of Timothy; he died 24 November 1905 in Cambridge, Mass.

Any leads on this Patrick O'Hara will be welcome.

Many thanks.

Bob in Massachusetts
