Hi, Looking for information on James Glacken and his wife, Catherine Burke. Their children were Bridget, Ellen, MaryAnn, and Charles (my ancestor). All the children emigrated to the United states around 1881. According to family stories these Glacken's were from County Cork but that seems unlikely based on the research I've done. I'd be grateful to hear from anyone that has run across information about James and Catherine. Thanks.

An update to this posting. I found that James Glacken and Catherine Burke lived in Mayo County. The Burke surname is very common in Mayo County. I know that James Glacken wasn't a native of Mayo County and am still looking for more information about his family. It is likely that his father's first name is Charles. Anyone with any possible information, please get in touch with me.

Sorry I can't give specific info on your ancestors, but I also have Glacken ancestors who came from Co Donegal. I think that's usually where the Glackens lived in the 1800s.
