Michael Lynch is my great grandfather. He lived in Mullaghgarve Townland between Drumshambo and Ballimamore, County Leitrim. He marrried Bridget Wynne (Win) in 1864 and is listed as being 24 years old and Bridget is listed as 20 years old. Michael's father is listed as Patrick Lynch and Bridget's father is listed as Loughlin Win (Wynne). Bridget is listed as living in Knockacullion townland. Michaael and Bridget lived in Mullagagarve and had eight children (Patrick, 25Nov1865, Frank, 13, Jan1867, Bernard, 3Sept1868, Thomas, 22Oct1970, Mary, 18ASug1875, Anne, 16Sept1972, Maggie, ?, and Katie, ?). They all migrated to Auburn, NY, USA in approximatley 1888. Micahel and Bridget are buried in Auburn, NY, USA.
I'm trying to find information about where Michael and Bridgt were born and more information about their parents (Patrick Lynch and wife and Loughlin Wynne and wife. There is a Patrick Lynch listed as a tennent on two parcels in Mullaghgarve in the 1865 Griffith's Valuations. I can't transl;ate to parcel numbers into exact locations but they both appear to be in the Ireon Mountain area.
