I am trying to connect the dots to my family as I am sure Sean was related to my grandmother. Do you have any additional information on Sean's father?<br /><br />Thanks so much,<br /><br />Brian Flaherty<br />brianflaherty@ymail.comAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03666848862352596392noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4307640823473103973.post-69176354715119733102015-12-13T09:42:07.847-08:002015-12-13T09:42:07.847-08:00Hi Liam,

As I am actively publishing Skibbereen area family trees on Family Search, would you be willing to let me publish data there, and/or collaborate with me on publishing it there ? <br /><br />http://www.familysearch.org is a free resource, only requiring a login. It is the website of the Mormon Family History Library from which catalog I can drop useful citations into the family trees, making them all the more valuable. Just let me know.sb10https://www.blogger.com/profile/01391069316427376726noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4307640823473103973.post-38287238682073083802015-07-15T14:57:47.285-07:002015-07-15T14:57:47.285-07:00I believe that John (Sean) Hurley is my grandmothe...I believe that John (Sean) Hurley is my grandmother Mollies brother....

You mentioned about Michael Collins and O'Donovan Rossa--I wonder if you've seen an article the latter wrote for the Brooklyn Eagle about the Fenian movement that recounts a conversation he had with Fr. John O'Brien, then at Ardfield. O'Donovan Rossa tells the same story in his memoirs, but in the Brooklyn Eagle version, mentions that "our families were related or connected with each other someway". This Fr. John O'Brien was a great-uncle of Mary Anne O'Brien Collins. If there was indeed some kind of 'relation or connection', then Collins and O'Donovan Rossa would've been related.MCBuddhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05739731106602973412noreply@blogger.com
