The names you have all mentioned don't ring a bell for me...except John Cavanaugh and
the surname Nealon. I have heard that there is a theory that many of the Irish who settled
in Scranton were from Sligo or Mayo. I've also heard they might have been from
Roscommon. It's interesting to note that these three areas are next to each other.
Although they combine to make up a huge area.
The clann gathering sounds interesting. I live in England so a hop to Ireland is fairly
easy.
If I can find when and where Timothy Cavanaugh (b1818 Ire) arrived in USA, that will go a
long way.
