I have researching the Egans from Bunnamucka Roscommon: my grandfather was Andrew (b. 1863), son of John and Bridget( Conry). He emigrated to Rhode Island, USA about 1880. His older sister, Anastacia (b. 1858), had emigrated to the Providence area earlier. Anastacia was the oldest of 14( ?) siblings. Among these were an Esther, Thomas, James. Bernard, Michael, Mary, John, Matilda, Catherine, Martin, Bridget. The youngest was Elizabeth, born in 1882. Anastacia married an O’Reilly; Andrew married Mary Kenney daughter of John and Bridget [(Reilly) sister of Michael , Denis and Bridget, all of whom emigrated from the Elphin/Strokestown area to Rhode Island between 1880 and 1892]. Elizabeth married a Denis Keegan.
Andrew (d.1916) and Mary (Kenny) had 8 children: Elizabeth, John, Andrew F.(d. 1914), Mary, Thomas, Joseph (my father) and Anna.
Are any of these names familiar to you or part of your history? I posted all of this on FaceBook: County Roscommon Genealogy page with a picture of Andrew’s family.THe tree is listed o ancestry.com with the name: “Shah Family Treee"
Hoping to hear from you,
