I'm not sure if you are still active on here but I thought I'd give it a try.I've managed to trace my father's family back to a Thomas O'Toole, born 1810 in Galway.He had a son Patrick Francis Toole (I'm guessing that was the point we stopped using the O) 1837-1885.Patrick arrived in the U.S. in 1883.The only other information I can find on Thomas was a birth record showing his mother's maiden name as Kearney.There was also a record showing a Thomas O'Toole as a boot maker in Clifden.I realize this doesn't lead to John but Thomas may be a relation.Do you have any other information that we could use to prove/disprove this?
