Greetings, David, No, I don't have any info about Ireland contacts or specifics other than your indicating George's family was from Galway, Ireland. I will look forward to learning more of your family lines when your Mom sends you the info. Thanks so much. Will email you separately as well. James Bellew's wife, Catherine Moroney/Maroney is said to have been from County Clare, Ireland. James sister married Morris Murphy.
