I'm not certain the parish is correct, I have a page from a book stating that Anne Egan was from Tullyhady County Tipperary, Ireland and born in 1765.  She had a daughter Margaret who married John Colligan.  They all lived in Emmet, Wisconsin when Ann (or Anna) died Dec 1, 1874 at the age of 109.  

 

Does anyone know if this is the "right" parrish and how can I find my Egan ancestors?

    Hi,

    Thank you for your message.

    I could not find a Tullahady in Tullaghhortan parish, however I did find a Tullahedy in Kilmore parish, CO. Tipperary.:

    A useful website when it comes to Irish Place names is www.logainm.ie

    I suggest that you join the Kilmore parish page and post your message there so our volunteers in the area will be able to see it.. Here is a link to the page:
