Kate,
Just reading through the posts on the website pertaining to the Walsh family and thought it interesting of you to have mentioned Walshs'and copper mining.I have a Nugent line I've been persuing and my Nugent family show a marriage of a Bridget Carroll to Bob/Robert Walsh (Have not dates available at this time), and they had (5) children: Jack, Bridget, Julie, Tom, and Dick.They were evidently married here in the U.S.Of real interest though is the fact that we have documented data showing this Nugent family as being copper miners here in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. One of the major employers up here are the Iron Ore mines and and in this timetable also were copper mines.Do you happen to have Nugents involved in your Walsh files?These people came from (we believe) Waterford County, (Kildwan, Ire.?) If anything jives here could you contact me?Thanks.
