Looking for any ancestors related to Patrick and Anne (Hevey) MaGrane. Married 1855 gaskintown County Meath Duleek. My great grandmother is Jane Jennie MaGrane Miller who came to America around the age 11. She was born around 1873 and was a twin to Margaret who died young. She had a sister older Anne who was an servant to a family in Cazenovia NY. We are trying to find as much information as we can regarding the MaGranes and Hevey's. Would love to one day see where our family came from and meet anyone who is related to the MaGranes or Hevey's.

Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!
I searched the subscription site Roots Ireland and located a number of baptismal records for siblings to Jane and Margaret. In addition to Anne (1862) there was a John (1856) Patrick (1860) and Julia 1869. There is also an 1865 Mary Magrane where the mother was Anne Henry and it is also likely that it should have been Heavy. See below. I gave you links to the 1873 civil birth records for Jane and Margaret. I also checked the 1901 census for Gaskinstown and found a John Heavey family. Likely this John was a brother to Anne.
