Hi, My ggg-grandfather was Daniel McGinnis. I believe he left in 1828 but am not sure. I have found his gravestone which shows he was born in 1808 and that he was from Clontuskert Parish. My maiden name is Fahey. All I know is that it's Irish. I have no idea which part it originates from or anything. I know my ggg-grandfather Patrick Fay came to I believe Baltimore, Maryland, USA. I can't find information here. He may have been a stow-a-way. All of the older people (who have long since passed on) would say is there was a famine, we're here now, don't worry about where you came from! I want to know where my roots are! Any information or ideas where or how to go about looking would be very appreciated! Thank you in advance, Brenda
