Hello, my first post!
My great, great grandmother was Catherine Gunning. b. Castlereigh, Roscommon May 30, 1868, d. New Orleans, LA March 19, 1897, daughter of John Gunning and Mary Conner. Siblings Mary, Michael, John, Annie, maybe Thomas, probably born Roscommon between 1860-1870 also came to New Orleans probably before 1886.
Any information on these families is greatly appreciated.
