In 1826 Patrick Donohue lived in Shangarry.

He had 4 sons, Michael, John, Robert and Patrick.

Any information would be appreciated.

  • Robert:

    The 1856 Griffiths Valuation head of household listing shows a Maria Donohoe in Shangarry townland.

    Possibly she was related to Patrick.

    I also looked at the 1901 census and there was a Michael Donohue family in Shangarry. I'm wondering if this is the Michael in your note. The oldest son is Patrick.

    Michael was still living in 1911.

  • Rogert:

    Thanks for that information.

    I have since dowloaded the 1901 and 1911 Census's. Now working on my Ballinasloe Donohue family.

     I have no wife for Michael, but I do have the family.

    The Maria you mention I will have to look at, My Maria (Grandmother) was born in Ballinasloe.

    Many thanks for your info.

  • Hi Robert,

    Patrick Donohue was my great great great grandfather. Maria Donohue was his wife.

    I have a handwritten copy of the family tree, you can see a photograph of it via the link below.

    The family burial plot is located at Kilcooley graveyard, i believe Patrick and Maria are buried there.

    I hope that helps!
