Hello from Nebraska, USA. I am coming to Ireland in May and I am looking for any info on my family! My Grandfather came from Ireland late 1800's,. We have a little information on him. He was born Patrick James Dalton (possibly James Patrick Dalton to Patrick James and Mary Quinn Dalton. He was baptized or born May 20th 1859. I can not read the top of the column but the entry says Bregawn (Bregaon). This record was found in Windgap Church records. I would love to find more information on him and possibly and living relatives!! Thank you for any help with this!

The spelling of the townland is Bregaun. I also looked up the 1849 Griffiths Valuation head of household listing for Tullahought parish. There are Daltons listed but none in Bregaun. Likely the father of James Patrick was not a head of household in 1849.
