My ancestors, Michael Boyle (b 1807) and his wife Honoria Nangle (b. 1805) were married in Ireland and emigrated to American around 1850. They setteled in Grant Count, Wisconsin. I have some uncertain information that Michael Boyle may have been from County Sligo. I have also found a birth certificate in County Sligo for an Honoria Nangle, although the birth date is about 5 years off from the USA records. Someone suggested there are a lot of Nangles in parish Boyle, Roscommon. I'm guessing there must also be quite a few members of the Boyle family in Boyle? Michael and Honoria Boyle sailed to the US with two other Nangles, James Nangle (b 1806) and and Afton or Alton Nangle. Any clues from others?

Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!
The Boyle RC records http://registers.nli.ie/parishes/0548 go back to 1793 but there are gaps for baptismal records including March 1806 to the end of 1810 which may include when Michael Boyle was baptized.
I saw the baptismal record for the 1805 Honoria Nangle in Aghanagh RC church which is on the border of Roscommon. I looked at that register and there is a gap in marriage records from 1802-1829 which likely explains why a marriage record is not available.

Thank you so much for the link to the RC records. I will try to find my Boyle and Nangle ancestors but if I can't find them specificially, it seems that though the hard evidence may not be available, I think it is likely my family came from around the area of the adjoining Arghanagh and Boyle parishes.

The Nangle surname is in Tithe Applotments records for Boyle. On same page was a place Nanglestown.
I added this information to an associated thread on the Sligo board "Nangle family", posted July 2018. This new thread has fresh information.
