Good morning list.
I am looking for the family of a Mary SCANNELL born abt 1834 in Ireland. She
was the daughter of an Edward SCANNELL listed as deceased on her 1852
marriage certificate. She married John BUCKLEY in Merthyr Tydfil. They and
their children arrived in Pittsburgh, PA from Merthyr Tydfil by 1873.
Although there are several Scannell/ Scannal/ Scanlon persons in Merthyr
Tydfil I have not found any to be a sibling.
I am also studying my HAYES family also from Cork, Ireland who lived on Iron
St. in Tredegar. That Hayes family also came to Pittsburgh in 1877. There
are 2 marriages connecting the BUCKLEY/ SCANNELL and HAYES family, both in
Pittsburgh. I am also aware of a Mary SCANNELL as witness to another wedding
in Tredegar.
There is now enough reason to look closely at the Tredegar, SCANNELL.
Looking at the archives I see others who have discussed SCANNELL in
Tredegar. My first attempt at a connecting email failed as they were older
postings. I think it best to post fresh and I am hoping that someone can
pick up on it and help me here.
I appreciate any info.
Regards
