Hello to all at the Ireland group,

I am trying to trace my Flannigans to Ireland and as usual on all of the census in Glasgow searches it only says place of birth Ireland. However i may have a lead in that i have found a sister of James Flannigan who married a Passmore and one of the children Francis Passmore was in the poor house in 1871 in Glasgow.
My subscription to emeraldancestor has lapsed but i did see on the free search a Francis Passmore born 1857 in Tyrone, can anyone have a look to see who the parents are for me? I would be ever so grateful.

Thanks

Ailsa

Thanks, Alex =D>
Ailsa will be very pleased when she comes online today

That looks like the right birth, since his father was supposed to be Joseph.
All the best,
Sarah

Hi Alex,

Yes Sarah is right i am pleased - thanks for that. I am now assuming that Joseph met and married Eliza(beth) Flannigan in Omagh Co Tyrone. Elizabeth was the sister of James Flannigan who was my gt gt grandfather. I am not sure if James moved to Glasgow or just the family. His wife was Ann Kearnan and they were possibly married around about 1830 - 1840. This is a way of narrowing down at least the area the came from in Ireland.
Many thanks again,

Ailsa
