Dear Macella, I note that Thomas born 1887,(Son of Luke Ardrahan) Emigrated to the USA in 1912 and stated on the ships manifest that he was going to see his brother Patrick in Schenectady. His place of residence in Ireland is listed as Gort, Co Galway, Just a few miles down the road from Ardrahan.Some of our line of Brennans are still living in Gort,others in England and Canada,come from Martin, born 1820(They were Boot and shoe makers).He married Margaret Kyne, First born son Patrick,1849, he was my Great Grandfather, he had at least one brother that we know of, Thomas born 1856 and at least two sisters Julia and Bridget.
If you think there may be a connection, I would be pleased to help fill in some of the history
