Hi
I have Patrick Callaghan (Sometime called Mc Callaghan) born circa 1798
emigrated to England 1846/7. I do not know where from but Frenchpark is a
distinct possibility.
He married, in Ireland a Catherine Brennan and they had Martin 1830s
Margaret 1834? John 1840c (went to Boscobel US) Luke 1842 (went to NYork)
Patrick 1843 and Michael 1846 (plus Catherine & Mary born in England)
(Catherine also visited NYork but returned to England) In New York Luke
stayed at least initially at 201 West 18th Street, with "Uncle" Andrew
Callaghan. Luke had a son also Luke who became a lawyer and possibly a
daughter Josephine who may have become a nun.
Does this ring any bells with anyone?
Regards
Tony Barratt

My great grandfather was Thaddeus O'Callaghan from Roscommon,
Eire. He is
not your Thady but I'm wondering if there is a connection. Here is what I
know:
Thaddeus was born in 1870 in or near Frenchpark, Roscommon. His father
was Timothy O'Callaghan born 1838 in or near Frenchpark, Roscommon.
Timothy married Bridget Bolton (not 100% sure this is the correct name).
They immigrated to the US in 1870 and settled in Michigan. Timothy had a
brother Patrick who stayed in Ireland (there are likely more siblings but
this is the only I've identified). I have a letter written by Patrick to
Timothy and in this letter he mentions that Thomas Corcoran and Anne
Boulten are dead.
Any connections?
