Hi,my names Katie and i'm new to this so i hope you will bare with me.I'm looking for any info on my Shannon ancestors.They go like this,
John Shannon b abt 1821 Ireland.Father James mother unknown.He married Catherine Donlon b abt 1833 Roscommon ,father Patrick Donlon mother unknown in Lichfield Staffordshire England in 1853.At Holy Cross RC Chapel.Witnesses to marriage were Patrick Lafferty and Anthony Diamond.Both fathers were deceased by the time John and Catherine married.I'm trying to find out if any of them had any siblings and how and when they came to England.I did find Thomas Shannon b Roscommon 1835 and died Lichfield in 1901.
He lodged with Patrick Lafferty and family in Sandford St,Lichfield Staffs.There were a large amount of Irish families in and around Sandford St,who all stuck together.Freemans,Lafferty's,Donlon's,Carney's,Molloy's,Kilgallons all who must have come aover together and have a connection with my family one way or another.
I would like to find out if James died in Ireland as i can't find anything on him.
If anyone can help me with anything at all,i would really appreciate it as i've hit a brick wall here.
Many thanks in advance
Katie (nee Shannon).
