Hi Mike and welcome:
My CALLAGHANS are from Kilmichael - grandfather Denis, son of Cornelius and
Kate Leary, born in 1862 and came to Boston in 1882. I have no info on
siblings and info from this area is very hard to come by, but I keep
digging hoping to get lucky.

Subject: [CALLAHAN-L] Mary Ann CALLAGHAN
Hello list members:
My name is Mike Higney and I am new to the Callahan list. From the list
description, I understand that the list is for other spellings of the name
as well; for example, CALLAGHAN!
What little information I have concerning my CALLAGHANS are as follows:
My great-grandmother, Mary Ann CALLAGHAN, married William HIGNEY in 1884 at
the Catholic chapel at Castlefin which is in county Donegal.
At the time of her marriage, she was living at Woodlands( a townland in
county Donegal) and her father's name was John CALLAGHAN.
I would really like to find out her mother's name but her Irish marriage
registration did not give the name of the mother.
Any information would be most appreciated as I would like to know more
about
my CALLAGHAN ancestors!
Sincerely,
Mike Higney
