Hello, I was trying to research my origins trying for and Irish citizen ship when I saw
the word Archbald. My father and his father were from Archbald, and the family had a farm
in South Canan. I beleve my grand father, John Mclane married a Bridget Cawley and I
believe he was from Crossmolin in county Sligo. Could you please offer me any
assistance.
My father had a slew of siblings. Mary D. married a Lalley,
3 sisters were nuns, There was a Joseph Mclane (brother).
Mary D. had several children who married into the McGowans and all remained in Archbald
till today. The nuns are stationed at Marywood college in Scranton.Thank You
Patrick Mclane
