O'Callaghan

Joan:

There is not enough information for us to assist you. Can I suggest you consider a DNA test and possibly you will have matches on your Callaghan line.

Roger McDonnell

Thanks Roger,

I have done DNA tests through My Heritage and My Ancestry.  I can provide more information. I just was not sure how much information was required.

Give me an idea of what sort of information please.

kind regards

Joan

Joan:

There are 10 Alice Callaghan/O'Callaghan civil births in either Cork or Limerick in the period 1900-1915. Do any of your matches on Ancestry/My Heritage have any data which might pinpoint a more specific location in Cork or Limerick so we can narrow down which birth might be her record? Did Alice emigrate and is there a census record that might narrow down the year Alice was born?

Hi Roger,

Thank you again for your reply. I can see by your questions that this is really not the best forum for my question because I don't have the answers.  I was hoping that maybe someone on this website message board just might have known an Alice O'Callaghan as their aunt/great aunt, sister, cousin etc.

I don't have any matches with my DNA that connect me with my father's relatives. I have researched quite extensively on Irish Geneology Website and the census records for 1901 and 1911. I have located one Alice O'Callaghan born 1915 in Donneraile Cork and her family and Emigration -  I am still waiting for the DNA confirmation from her relative but not very confident)

I appreciate you taking the time to reply to me. 

Kind regards
