I've been researching for it'll be a yr. in March 2003. Was your dad born in Canada? then What about his father? how Much Do you know of the mens births? where at is what I mean.I have been able to track them like this. Knew my grandmother Lucy McNamara-Strnad died 1918 12 days after my mothers birth. only knew the names of her Parents were suppose to be Patrick McNamara- Mary Hannon. suppose to have been Co Galway. Ireland. the paper my uncle had in his wallet had a birthdate for her. Jan. 12-1888. being she had hooked up with my grandfather Highland Park, Mich suburb of detroit. back tracked in city directories and found Lucy on Census's with her parents no census 1890 but city directory substitute. then 1900. her mother died 1901 detroit. very suddenly found them in Church records. that listed along with city directories. the children eventually.its been a long travel. but have found .only have 2 cousins in Cal.both never married or had kids - they are 2 boys that I've only found 1 of 2. he hasn't talked to his brother in at least 10yrs. they are in their mid 50's. then I have found the next generation of my grandmother's their were 9 kids with 1 had died as a baby. 1875. found this past week a grandaughter of my grandmothers sister lizzie mcNamara. and in Jan 2003. found the great granddaughter of my great grandfather's brother.then that takes us to the Hannon-Finn's they were the parents of my great grandmother Mary/Maria Hannon-McNamara. found thru Family search which is the Biggest known Genealogy Keeper of Records. for USA Canada AND sAY FOR INSTAnce Ireland, they are Mormons, but they have all demominations Records. Found on my grat grandmother death certificate her parents names of Hannon's -Finn's. found their marriage dated Jan. 30 1845. Co Rosc. ireland. not my greats birthdate. but that was the following yr. Feb. 7-1846. on her death cert. then found to be a brither Mathew Hannon born 1864 and Ellen 1868.
