Patrick I’m not sure if we are related but I haven’t found that many Ryans from Wexford.My grandfather was Edward Ryan.He was born 6/14/1864 in Cullenstown County Wexford.His siblings were Annie, Teresa, Johanna, Bridget, Elizabeth, Mary, Catherine and Robert.Most of them came and settled in the Chicago area in the 1880s and 1890s.Edward’sparents were William Ryan (12/30/1834-?) and Mary Bowe (12/3/1837-4/1921).According to the information I have William was the son of Edward Ryan and Ellen Doyle and Mary Bowe was the daughter of Robin Bowe of Ballinanary, Enniscorthy, County Wexford and Mary Cullen of Conoghue, Adamstown, County Wexford.My grandfather Edward came to Chicago in the 1880s and married Ellen Barron, who was born in Newbawn County Wexford, at St. Malachys Church in Chicago 9/15/1895.Ellen’s parents were Philip Barron who was born in County Waterford and Catherine Cullen who was born in Newban County Wexford in 1838.The Barrons also came to Chicago in the 1880s.Do you have any locations in Wexford?Bill Ryan
