My great grandfather, Joseph Aloysius Green, was born December 1875 in Mace, Carna. He emigrated to Pittsburgh in 1901. I'm looking for information on his family. I have his parents' names, Michael Green and Bridget King. I also have siblings Pat (who married Bridget Greene), Tom, Mark, Kate (who married a Mullkilin), Mary (who married a Claherty), and Joseph. Presumably, the other Joseph died and my Joseph took his place..
Any information on any of these family members would be appreciated. I've hit the proverbial brick wall!

Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!
I can't tell if you have the 1901 and 1911 census records for the family which are below. Bridget Green died in 1904 and Michael Green in 1916. What other information do you need? I was unable to locate a marriage record and likely the church no longer has records back to the marriage year.

Hi Jennifer, This is my family. My great grandmother was Kate Green who married Michael Mulkern in Boston. I have your great grandfather and his Chicago descendents in my tree. Kates sister married Cloherty and that family stayed in Carna as did a few other Green siblings and their descendants still live in the Carna area. I'd love to share information with you. I did not have Michael and Bridget's death records so this is very helpful. I believe Michael Greens father was Liam but I do not have documentation. Bridget King Green is believed to be related to the Aran island Kings including the famous " man of Aran", Tiger King. Thanks for posting, Kathleen
