My mother's maiden name was Navin.  After my mother's passing in
1993, I traveled to Donohill in 1995 and met her 1st cousin Elizabeth Hewitt
whom my mother had never met. My grandfather as Michael Navin and he came to
USA as a young man leaving behind his parents and several siblings.  His
brother Patrick Navin and several sisters emigrated later. I believe
Elizabeth who was widowed,  is no doubt passed by now.  I recall that while
she lived alone, she did have a son who drove bus and a daughter.  She was so
gracious and took us to the graveyard where my grandparents..Peter Navin is
buried. I'd be interested if anyone knows of Elizabeth's son or daughter.
Thank you.

  • Hello Jane, I have been asked to look at older queries and here I find you, hope it was lucky.

    If you are still interested in Carrigallen in Leitrim I see there is a book available about the local school including the school rolls from 1910 I think. Let me know if you are interested and I can send you the details.

    Regards
