Hi everyone! I am just beginning to research my family branches. My grand mothers family was from Ireland.My great-great Grandmothers names was Ellen Carroll Fitzsimons. She was born July 9, 1826. She had 3 sons that I know of at this point, My great Grandfather Patrick born in1865. There was also a Father William Fitzsimons born Nov 1862, with a twin Brother named Thomas. I have pictures that my Aunt had taken on her last trip to Ireland of the family home, of the cross on the grave of my great-great Grandmothers. I also have a picture of the building that was once a pub owned by the family and is now a news and variety store inthe town of Virginia, count Cavan. I hope to obtain more information in a few days with a visit to my Aunt. If any of this sounds familiar to you, perhaps we have some sort of connection.
