Thank you for your post NotMacMauriceRuadh, is their any information available about the Bradshaw's you mentioned?
My info comes mainly from U.K.Census Newcastle on Tyne 1871 Onwards and there were Bradshaw's on Clare Island (Leecarrow Kilgeever) Griffith's Valuations 1850's. Richard Bradshaw born 1819 Mayo Ireland and others.
I am in Australia so it's hard for me from such a distance. I am grateful for any help. Maybe the originals were not Catholics but it seems those in Newcastle on Tyne were.I am a bit confused as one is when they reach old age. What are the sites online you mentioned with family lineages of the new landed gentry that might connect me wiyh Mayo?
