Hi There! I have been searching for information on Rosanna Scallen - and are delighted to find her here. She is my great great Grandmother. I would love to find out more about Rosanna. Are there distant family members out there who could help? I would also like to find out more about her husband Thomas Connolly. Did they know each other when they lived in County Tyrone (as that is where he also was from). Or perhaps they meet in Thames, New Zealand. Any information on the family is greatly appreciated.

thanks

Hi. How are you related to Rosanna? I don't think Thomas and Rosanna knew each other in County Tyrone. Yes Thomas was from County Tyrone as well. He was a lot older than Rosanna. Thomas' mother and two sisters came to New Zealand as well.

Hi again

I haven't been able to find out much information about Mary Eva, but may be able to help with other members of the family. Please email me at mphynes@gmail.com. Yes, I am in New Zealand.
