My ancestor from Co. Fermanagh was:
John Quigley born July 22, 1817, probably in Clones; arrived US during April 1835; married Catherine McKiernan of Co. Cavan on 19 Sept 1839 at St. Jos' Catholic Church in NYC. 5 children. John died in Smithfield, RI on 25 June 1873; His first wife Cath. died 1859; John remarried in 1866 (Eliz. Vaughan).
John's parents names were James and Bridget Quigley. We believe they died in Co. Fermanagh.
