My grandmother Catherine Regan was born around 1884 in the town of Boyle. her parents were patrick and Catherine who were marrind about 1871 in July. One of the witnesses was named Hopkins.
The rRegan family moved to the US shortyl after the birth of my grandmother and settled in R.I. There were three or four children born before my grandmother.
I would love to connect with any relatives who may have stayed behind in Boyle. My great grandmother maiden name was Conry.
