Pete... thanks for your response on the surnames registry!Unfortunately I don't have any further information beyond my gr gr grandparents names but I'm still searching, I haven't yet contacted Ireland for research.According to my father, up until the 1950s the Wallaces and Quinns used to have big family get-togethers, there were a lot of Quinns and I'm trying to track down some of their descendants.One additional piece of info that I do have is that my gr grandmother Katherine Quinn and her brothers and sisters came from a townland or place in Tuam called Cloonaglasha - this is according to a letter my great aunt wrote about 20 yrs ago.Also in that letter she talks about Dennis Quinn, the only member of the family who stayed in Ireland, he died during the 1970s and must have been in his 90s - perhaps your Quinn relatives in Tuam were acquainted with Dennis?Anyway, keep in touch and as I find out more I will let you know.
Thanks again!
Thanks again!EdMore Replies:
