Hi,
I'm writing because I'm trying to learn about a Conway-Togher family that lived in Binghamstown, Mayo, Ireland from before 1860 to 1911. I'm not a member of facebook but have seen a Togher Facebook page you're a member of and also a Rosemary McMahon who seems to be closely related to the family I'm concerned with.
Details on this family:
Michael Conway b.ca.1837 County Mayo. Living in Ardmore, Binghamstown, 1911.
m. Mary Togher b.ca.1837 County Mayo. d.1901-11 Ardmore.
Children include:
Anthony Conway (1864-
Apparently immigrated to North Dakota 1908
Michael Conway (1874-1955)
Immigrated to Indianapolis, Indiana about 1902.
John Conway (1862-1903)
Immigrated to Indianapolis, Indiana in 1890.
James Conway (1876-
Patrick Conway (1881-
Bridget Conway (1871-
Mary Conway (1872-
There are connections between these people and my own Conway family which came from Doohoma in Belmullet Parish, Mayo in 1860 to North Vernon, Indiana and to Indianapolis, Indiana in 1897. They knew the Conway family from Binghamstown and it's said they were "related" but I don't know how closely or if they really knew that they were.
If you could pass this onto Rosemary McMahon or if it's of interest to yourself, I would like to exchange information. Thanks.
