Charles,
My Callaghans are from the townland of Mullaghroe in the Parish of Kilfree
near Gurteen, County Sligo. There's a good chance we'll find a connection
if we look at this. Do you have the names of your grandmother's parents?
Any other info to help me track this down? I've got a book with the names
found in most of the local cemeteries, so if you give me some more info I'll
look through the book and see if there's anything in there.
Regards,
Tom McLoughlin
