I'm looking for marriage records or any family records for Ross Michael O'Laughlin, born 20 May 1820 in Ennystymon, Co Clare who emigrated to North America in 1849 (under "contract" in Detroit, Michigan).  Married in Ireland to Marie Bourke born 28 Jan 1824.  They had 2 children born in Ireland.  A son named James Francis O'Laughlin born in 1844 in Limerick (?) and a daughter Susan O'Laughlin born 19 June 1846 in Monreel, Ennystyon, Clare, Ireland. Susan O'Loughlin was baptized on 21 June 1846 in Rath, Diocese of Killaloe.  Ross & Marie were eventually reunited in America, as well as their 2 children.  When Ross's " contract" was fulfilled, the family settled in Beaver Dam, Wisconsin.

Any information is greatly appreciated.  Thank you.

  • I didn’t find the names you listed in the baptismal/birth/marriage records at the paid site rootsireland, so it's possible records don't exist for the time period in question.

    The following O’Laughlins appear in the tithe applotments in Clare. You can see the register pages at
