desperate to find sister of last living uncle, dan kilgannon ,now of devon england.Sarah born c1908 Sligo and went to new york 1920s or thirties with sister elizabeth. Saragh married German gent , had two children with whom she traveled to Sligo just before war for visit. She left Cork with children en route to Germany to live with husband. Don't know his last name. never
heard from again.Saw Louis also married Germn and tjought that odd. any connections? We were from Dromore West, Co Sligo near Easkey. Now in London

I don't know if we are in any way connected but I thought I'd reply, just in case. My grandfather John Kilgannon died in WW2. We know he had two sisters, he could have had more but we dont know. His sisters were Annie and Louisa. Their parents were James Kilgannon and Louisa Jane Jones. James' father was Patrick (what else for an Irishman?). Did your uncle Dan in Devon have any other relations who lived in Devon? "My" Kilgannons live in the Exeter area. Regards, Elaine Kilgannon Beckham

My wife had Kilgannons from Dromore West. Patrick Gilgannon married Catherine Neary and left for somewhere in England. They had two daughters there and were in Ohio by 188o. Kilgannons, Nearys and O'Dowds were the family names I am familiar with in Easkey and Drowmore West. Some of the family were around Templeboy. We maintain contacts with Sonny and Judy Kingannon in Dromore West. If you have any information concerning where Kilgannons might have settledd in England, please contact me. Thank youj

Like others, I'm sure we're distantly related, but I don't know how. My G-Grandmother was Mary Ellen Kilgannon of Farranmacfarrell, Dromore West. Her parents were Pat Kilgannon (son of Daniel Kilgannon of Glen Easky) and Bridget Gilvarry. Mary Ellen's brother was Daniel Kilgannon, but he died relatively young.

Mary Ellen emigrated to New York City as a teenager, shortly after her youngest sibling (a half-sister), Sarah Kilgannon, was born in 1887. --Kevin Alcott

Patrick Gilgannon and Catherine Neary are my great great grandparents....I know they had 10 children...Ellen was the oldest, also I have the names of Jane, Mary, Thea, Katie, and my great grandmother Celia who was born in 1875. I am trying to get as much info as possible....

Patrick Kilgannon and Catherine Neary: Patrick was youngest brother to my g-grandf James. Their father Cormack born in Ireland, died in Edinburgh Scot. 7 Mar 1896. Would enjoy swapping any info with you. Hope you are still keeping informed, as your info dated 2003
