My great grandmother Elizabeth O'Neill left Ireland for Australia in the 1870s. Her parents were George O'Neill, a bricklayer, and Bridget Maher. A brother possibly, Ernest Albert O'Neill, went to the United States as well circa 1870. Would love to her from any relatives still living in Dublin.

  • Hi there,

    Thank you very much for you message to Ireland Reaching Out.

    Have you checked the follwing documents for possible information about George O'Neill, the bricklayer?

    1820 J. Pigot, Commercail Directory of Ireland PRONI, NLI (Ir.9141 p 107)

    1824 J. Pigot and Co., City of Dublin and Hibernian Provincial Directory, NLI
