Original Message:
Kathleen: I think Margaret Brogan is my great
grandmother. From what you
say they had six children at the time of the census. In
total they have 10,
many born after my grandmother left for the U.S. She
never returned home and
that breaks my heart. She was such a wonderful woman.
I would love to hear
what your mother has to say. Please let me know. I
would love to know the
name of Mary Brogan's mother and where they were from if
your mom can
remember. Please let me know and thanks so much for
responding to me. Have
a great weekend. Thanks you!!


I talked to my mother today and she verified that Julia
Brogan was her friend and was from Carracanada. They
went to school together, so they must be the same age.
My mother said she lived south of Swinford off the
Kilkelly Rd. My mother lived the same way except that
her road was the road that "went west through the
village to the Kiltimagh Rd.". Julia Brogan lived
farther south on the Kilkelly Rd. and then you headed
west. The road where Julia lived dead ended. My mother
didn't know Julia's parents or siblings names.
I may have a picture of Julia that I will send you
off list.
I hope that you can understand the above directions
and that some of this information helped. If you have
Map 32 of the Discover Series Ordance Survey of Ireland
you should be able to find it.
