Place of migration
Migrated to/Born in USA

John Griffin immigrated to Friendsville, Apolacon Township, Susquehanna County, Pennsylvania in 1848 from County Limerick. He married Hannah Devitt most probably in Friendsville. Hannah was from Kilmurry Ibrickan, County Clare. They had five sons born in Apolacon Township. The oldest was Michael born in 1855, Thomas H. born in 1857, John F. born in 1858, Timothy S. born in 1859, and Patrick G. born in 1862. He was a farmer. He died September 25, 1876, and is buried in Friendsville, PA in St. Francis Xavier Cemetery.  I do not know where in County Limerick he was from, but wish I did know.
