Message Board Post:
Have reason to believe these are the parents of John Kavanagh who came to Ellicott City,
near Baltimore, in 1850 from MAYO. Civil records of death (which commenced in 1864)
contain the death records of a couple Patrick Cavanagh (1782 - 1872) and Ellen (1794 -
1878) of Cloonerneen, Ballinrobe who could have had a son the age of my John (born circa
1826.) Thanks to Gerard Delaney of the South Mayo Family Research Centre in Ballinrobe
who dug up that tidbit! Also I found an obit for MARTIN KAVANAUGH in 1887 who also lived
in Ellicott City beside my JOHN and it states that he was born in Ballinrobe. Any
Kavs/CAvs out there with family from this part of Ireland. Would love to share info!
