Hi,

I'm hoping to find out more information about my father's family from either County Armagh or Derry. Our surname is Goodwin, but the family folklore is that it was McGuigan prior to my great-grandfather immigrating to the United States from Northern Ireland. I have no idea what town he was from or who his family was - or even if he used Goodwin as his last name while he was still living in Armagh. My great-grandfather was Patrick, born approximately in 1887 or 1888. He immigrated to New York City in 1904 out of Derry. He married Jennie McDonough when he was in New York.

If anyone has any clues or leads, I would appreciate it more than I can even put into words!

All the best,

Katie
