I have a Mary Ann Canavan (also from Clifden Galway Ire) who marries a John Flaherty,
This John would have been born abt 1880 Mary Ann is reported to have been born about 1877.
They have several children one of whom is a Michael Flaherty. But it seems every family in
Clifden has at least one John, Michael, Patrick, Mary and Bridget. If there is the
posssiblity of a conection I have lots I can share, but lots of blanks that I need help
with too. The list of Canavan/King/Corbett Walsh/ Welsh/Foley/Coyle/Mullen/Thornton (plus
the Flaherty noted above) is a list of the known marraiges that various Canavan men and
women married bewteen 1880 and 1910. If this fits with anyone lets compare notes. Most of
them said on their immigration paper they were going to visit their cousin Bridget in
Boston. However most of my group went to New Hampshire and then on to PA.
