Hi there,
I have Anne NOLAN born about 1836 and married about 1857 Monasterevan, Kildare. She married John Blood. I don't know her parents or siblings but I do have her children.
I'm not sure if this is the same family though.
Not sure if this is helpful information???
Pete.

Hi
I found your post and note that Peter and Daniel Nowlan link closely to Margaret Bryant (nee Nowlan) in my family tree and she is likely the Margaret noted in the advertisement.
I have also identified another potential family member in Laurence Nowlan who emigrated to Victoria in 1867.
Have you been able to locate any further details on the Nowlan family in Ireland? I expect that John Nowlan and Mary Dowling are the parents of the 4 but can't find any details on them.
Cheers
