|
|
Michael McGuire born around c. 1894 in Lissagarvin, Leitrim - emigrated to NYC c. 1915.
MCGUIRE married a PRIOR and they had 3 boys and 2 girls. The eldest was Catherine.
The MCGUIRE family lived in the Bronx and Michael owned a bar on Rockaway Beach. He died around 1953.
Michael had two brothers: Patrick and John.
I'm trying to find American relatives for a woman in Ireland. If anyone knows anything, please let me know. |
