Gunnigan/McGonigle Connection?
Hello:
I am descended from Timothy Gunnigan of Aghamore, Co. Mayo, Ireland who was born in the 1820s.His father was Tadhg MacDhonnagain (Dh in Irish is pronounced "g"). We have no information on Tadhg's parents, but the Gunnigans are a very small family in Mayo, and we've always suspected that they originally came from the north -- perhaps Donegal.Does anyone know if the Gunnigans and McGonigals could be connected? In Griffith's Valuation of County Donegal, a McGunnigal and McGunnigan are listed next to each other. Can anyone provide additional pieces of the puzzle for me?
Thanks!
Kevin Brady
