Michael: In this September 8, 2012 post you say that the father of your gg-grandfather
Michael James Canavan (b. about 1849) was also named Michael and that he had a brother
named John Canavan.
If the senior Michael was 30 /- 5 years when his son John Michael was born, the senior
Michael would have been born about 1820. My great-grandfather John Canavan was born in
1828 and could have been Michael, Sr.'s brother and your gg-grandfather's uncle.
How do you know that Michael, Sr. had a brother named John?
Do you know anything else about him?
