Hi all,
My first irish direct ancestor popped up today. Unfortunatly, i know nothing about trying to find out things about her or family. I can make assumptions but i know sometimes these can be very wrong.
Margaret McGinty was born in Ringsend near Dublin in 1788. Somehow she made her way to England and married a Thomas Thorn where they lived in Chalford in Oxfordshire. She died in January 1863 at Chalford.
Other than that i know nothing. Who were her family and parents ? Where they Catholic Irish or Church of Ireland from Scots stock. Where did she marry Thomas and why come to Chalford from Dublin.
So many questions. Any help or pointer really appreciated.
