  • Hi there,

    have you tries the two websites www.rootsireland.ie  and www.irishgenealogy.ie  ?  I found  a few james mcgann in the timeframe.  I then tried narrowing it down by putting thomas as a father's name?  I found a baptism for 

    james mcgan 1826 Co. Roscommon   and  another  1824 in Co. Kildare.  Maybe it'd worth taking a look at these records.

    Hope this helps ,

    regards,

    Anne
