Stephen Henry Hanrahan born c 1879 in England or Ireland
Hello
I am attempting to trace the roots of my maternal grandmother, Kathleen Ellen Naomi Hanrahan. Her mother was Ellen (surname unknown) and her father was Stephen Henry Hanrahan (pronounced Hanran).She had a younger sister, Hilda, who emigrated to Canada to marry Michael Shewshuk. Date of birth for Kathleen was c 1906, married Horace George Edward Baggarley c 1930, had daughter Doreen Joan Baggarley in 1931 and adopted Philip John Baggarley in c 1941. She lived in Middlesex and West Sussex amongst other ares in England. Place of birth unknown. Died c 1985 in Chichester, West Sussex. Her father, Stephen Henry Hanrahan, was born c 1879. He had been training to become a Catholic Priest until he met Ellen. He died c 1955 at Buckfastleigh Abbey, Buckfast, Devon. Buried in a joint grave with his wife in Hillingdon, Middlesex. I am the daughter of Doreen, known as Dawn. Grateful for any news on family connections. I understand from my mother that there are maternal family roots in Ireland and France.
