O'Sullivan-Ballyagran, Limerick

Catherine O'Sullivan - 06:37pm May 25, 2005 Irish

My grandfather, Patrick O'Sullivan was born in Ballyagran, Limerick in 1879. He came to America around 1900 (we think). We knew of brothers James, Michael and a sister Catherine, however when my sister, Maureen and I traveled to Ireland and spect the day with Fr. O'Neill of St. Colman's Church we found that there were 4 other siblings that my grandfather NEVER mentioned (he passed away in 1958)..there were Susan, Mary (born 1893, Ellen (1876) and John 1875.

Also we learned of relatives (?) Jeramiah Glavan, Mary Fitzgibbons, Ellen Twohill(or Toohill), James Toohill (or Joseph), Mary Connors. Patrick Sullivan, Margaret O'Neill, Henry O'Sullivan, Helen Twohill, Dennis Sullivan, Ellen Keane, Michael Hartnett, Catherine Donovam, Joh Flavham and Susanna Sullivan. These were the baptism sponsors of the brothers and sisters of my grandfather.

We beleive my great-grandmothers people (Twohill or Toohill) came from Cork since Ballyagran is so close to the Cork border.

I would appreciate ANY help ANYONE can give us...Do any of the names above seem familiar to anyone???

Please let me know..It is my mission to find our family. We are goinf back to Ireland next summer and would like to take some information with us.. Thank you,

Cathy O'Sullivan
