james whelan-Katherine sommers
i am looking for information on my grandparents katie (nee Sommers)and James Whelan from Thomastown, County Kilkenny.
Katie was born in Ottowa, Canada, but moved to Ireland as a young child. They went on to produce 20 children (15 who survived).My father, also James was one of them, later went on to marry Margaret(my mother) also of Thomastown.
I would be grateful to receive any information
