HI Mary,
Where did Patrick settle? I'm able to track mine back to John Droney And his wife Mary (Gorman)making the voyage in 1892 and settling in the western NY town of Salamanca, in Cattaraugus County. I am still searching for the exact Ireland origin but have always heard rumors that they were from the Milltown Malbay area of Clare. I'm going to take a trip in Aug to do some local research in Clare and hope to turn up something. I will gladly share any and all information that I dig up..... have a feeling that it will take some time to sort everyone into their proper families. If you have any information that you feel would be helpful before I begin my journey, please forward it to me ASAP.
