  • Hi Steve

    There are 13 birth/baptism records of Michael O'Connors born 1843 in Limerick on www.rootsireland.ie/

    It is not possibel to search by month as well as year so I don't know how to narrow down the options.

    The odds are better with the marriage records - there are 3 marriages of Michael O'Connor to a Julia in Limerick - though 2 are Conners / Connors & 1 is Connor - none has the O'. The year of the Connor one is 1866 - looks like this fits with the info on the Milligan family tree info on ancestry.com.

    It costs to get the full record on rootsireland but it will have the parish and MAYBE parents' names (some do / some don't)

  • Col,

    We always thought they dropped the O' when they came to the US.  Maybe in Ireland Michael didn't have an O'?

    The Connor / Milligan is my family branch.
