My grandfather, Patrick Reilly was born at Cloonfaghna, Carrowcur in 1876. He had a sister Bridget and brother John. John had daughters Margaret and Mary Kate. I think Margaret went to live in Manchester and my grandfather lived in South Wales. He visited with my father in 1935 and they met the family and some cousins, the Finnegans and John O'Farrell. One of the cousins had a daughter Agnes. My father took me and my mother and brothjer to visit in 1965 and we visited the stone cottage. My mother's grandparents are Gilmores, Divines, Joyces and Glynn from Caltra, Tuam, Mount Bellew and Annaghdown.
I am visiting Galway and Mayo now and plan to go to the gathering event at Ballyhaunis on August 24th and 25th, I would love to meet a relative or someone who knew them
