Hi
I'm looking for any possible info on John O'Donnell who might of been born in Raphoe, Donegal in 1857 or thereabouts.
His parents were James O'Donnell & Jane Bonnar, they were married in Donegal before coming over to Scotland sometime in the 1870's.
I believe John and his siblings were all born in Raphoe but do not have concrete evidence of this and would love to know if they did indeed live here and any other info on the family if possible.
Many Thanks.
