CAHALINS, Ireland - Lancashire

CAHALINS, Ireland - Lancashire

Surnames: Cahalin, Morley, Colman, Roscoe
I am trying to find out more about my great grandmother, BRIDGET CAHALIN (spelt various ways in different censuses etc) who I believe may have been from Mayo (census entry says 'Ballyine', I think!). I know her name is not so common in Mayo, can anyone help at all, please? I know she was born around 1830, and she had a brother DANIEL born approx ten years later. They were both living around Bury in Lancashire. She married MARTIN MORLEY (maybe formerly O'Morally) who was apparently from Ballyhaunis in 1854 at Bury, Lancashire, England. Bridget's father was PHILIP CAHALIN. Other names of interest connected with these families - JOHN THOMAS ROSCOE; MARTIN and MALACHI COLMAN/COLEMAN sons of PATRICK. Anything appreciated as I am stuck now!

I can't remember if I've already sent this reply but Edward and Bridget Cahalin who you will find in the 1851 census living in St Helens are my great grandparents. He changed the name to Charleson. Judging from first names I am afraid that if we are related it is very remote, but if you can prove me wrong, that's fine. I think your Cahalins came from E. Mayo while mine came from Ballinrobe.
