Hello,
I am searching for information on my great-grandfather, John Cunningham, born in 1824, County Longford. He emigrated to Binghamton, New York in 1842.
Do you know how I might find who his parents and siblings were?
Thank you very much.

Abstract, Indented Deed of Assignment
Book 622 Page 585 No. 430963 Dated 17th April 1810
1st Part: Magdaline St. Maurice
2nd Part: Maria Crawford, wife of Rev. George of Cottage [Monylagen], Co.
Longford
Magdaline St. Maurice is possessed of one undivided moiety in lands of
Aghnamadoo and Ballincurry in sd County [lease from Auchmuty inherited
from her parents]did settle the same on Maria Crawford, her heirs and assigns
for ever in consideration of the love and affection sd Magdaline hath for
sd Maria Crawford and [token five shillings paid]. Subject nevertheless
to payment of £40 yearly rent of sd lands during Magdaline's natural life.
Deed Witnesses:
William West, Dublin City, Gent {Maria's brother]
John Holmes, Newtonforbes, Co. LOngford, Clerk
Memorial Witnesses:
William Keough
William West, Dublin City
Maria Crawford
Dated 16th October 1810. John Griffin, Deputy Registrar
[Maria and probably William were children of Francis West of Cloone, Leitrim
by his first wife Catherine (surname unknown). Maria Crawford named two
of her daughters for Magdaline and Maria St. Maurice. Magdaline at age
73 has transferred her rights, renewable for ever, to Maria as to an heir.
The £40 rent is considerably more than the obligation to landlord Auchmuty
and appears to be an arrangement planned for maintenance of an elderly
person. It doesn't prove, but suggests that Catherine was a St. Maurice.]

My Dear Mary,
I send by this post a newspaper with an account of Mr. Parnell's funeral.
there was never anything like it seen in dublin before. His death took
everyone by surprise. He was about two months married to Mrs. O'Shea. they
were married by a magistrate. They intended to get married in church afterwards
but the Archbishop of Canterbury would not allow any of our clergymen to
marry them. Mrs. O'Shea seems to have no sense of shame. She is in great
trouble after him. All her children live with her except her oldest son,
they never left her. Mr. Parnell is almost as well known in America as
in Ireland. If Gladstone was gone now "Home rule" would have a bad chance.
I have very little news to tell you. Your uncle Francis Crawford's daughter
is engaged to be married to a Mr. Gorncastle [maybe Horncastle]. Marie
Crawford says he is a very nice man, and a good match for her. Her mother's
health is failing very much, she is glad of the prospect of a happy home
for Edith.
Letitia Donaldson [dau of G.B.West,Leitrim]did not pay us a visit this
summer, though she was invited. Her health was not very good at the time
she was to have come.
George Gosselin met with a bad accident, he was out on his bicycle and
another young man's ran into his. George fell off and broke his collar
bone. It was only last Monday, he looks able to go to his work. It was
a great mercy he was not killed. We are all thankful he got off so well.
We are all well, thank God, after the wintry summer we have had and the
crops are much better than was expected. Thank you for the Visitor, we
like it very much. I hope you have got the Herald I sent.
How is your Mother? I hope she continues to gain though she and Aunt Eliza
and myself are lving (as Mr. Moody says) on borrowed tie. Perhaps another
year would unite us in our heavenly home. I hope your eyes are stronger
and your Father and Ronald well and the absent members of the family also.
Aunt and Alice send join me in fond love to all. I remain dear Mary, ever
your affectionate aunt,
M. Connolly

Good morning...
John Tobin has kindly shared another of his old letters from Co Longford.
You can view it at:
http://www.rootsweb.com/~irllog/letters/let_1873.htm
John would like to hear from anyone who knows the area or anything about the
family...
" I would appreciate any help from readers on these as to the
location. I believe it to be Langhill, County Longford. I also believe
that the author of the letter is Mary Brady and is the daughter of John
Brady (my gggrandfather on my grandmothers side). She refers to her
brother Thomas (who was murdered in 1883 in Granard, that's another
letter). She also refers to Bidy who I believe is Bridgett, mother of
John, husband of James."
John's email is america(a)j51.com
There is also a link to him on the letter pages.
If you enjoy reading them I am sure he would like to hear that as well.
Regards,
Christina

The Carroll family of my interest is that of Michael and Marcella Kenny
Carroll shown of Griffiths Valuation living in Clygeen. I am interested in a
full list of their children. I know they had the following. Anne, Michael,
James Francis born 15 August 1861 in Clygeen, and Anthony. Anne entered the
Sisters of Charity in 1884 in New Jersey. The family left Ireland and came
to a relative in either New York or New Jersey about 1864-65. There were 7
children in all. Anne was the only girl according to family tradition.
James was the youngest. Who were Michael's parents and who were Marcella's?
I would really like to know who the other siblings were. My late huband told
me there might have been a Thomas but so far have not been able to establish
that fact. Margaret Carroll Amundson
