Because I focused with great intensity on my Carrolls, I did not follow up on some of my other families. I am very interested in two families who lived in Old Castletown and who are part of my family. I am looking for descendants of William STANTON who married Catherine GALLAGHER in 1887 in Kildorrery. Their children were Michael Stanton c1887, Thomas c1888, John c1892, Mary c1893, Honora c1894, William c1897, Kate c1898, and Patrick c1904. (I do not have Baptismal records so do not have names of sponsors, which would likely give some relatives's names.) In 1911 the family was still living in Old Castletown. I would LOVE to communicate with a descendant. (Catherine Gallagher who married William Stanton had several siblings. I have no idea if any of them married: Thomas Gallagher 1849, William 1852, Richard 1854, and Ellen 1857).

The 2nd family I am interested in traces back to Michael WALLACE, likely the son of Richard Wallace from Old Castletown, and Catherine/Kate COUGHLAN, daughter of Patrick Coughlan and Catherine Lyons. They might have been married in the 1830's. I do not know if they had children.

I would appreciate any suggestion at all as to how I could find living relatives. Thank you very much. Janice Kenney Fortado
