I have been reading with interest the postings about the Thomas Foleys from Co. Waterford.My gr Grandfather, Thomas and his brothers, William, Michael and Patrick all settled in Pine Twp., Indiana County, PA in the mid 1800's.Their tombstones say they were from Co. Waterford.It is interesting that many of the family names are repeated: Catherine, Ann, Margaret, Ellen, Thomas, Michael.I have not been able to find the exact place in Co. Waterford where they originated. My gr Grandfather, Thomas was born in 1815; went to Newfoundland to work in the fisheries; went back to Ireland and married Anastasia Shannon, came to the US through the port of Boston in 1844; and then settled in PA.His brothers were apparently in PA before him. Any connections or clues?
