I have researched many of these ancestors & can provide further information. The most "colorful" of all is one of the sons of Mary Guinane Duggan, Martin Duggan, who became Marshall of Leadville, Colorado, USA. There is historical info about him online.
I'd love to hear from anyone with knowledge of this family, including the Rainsfords!
