William Ivory: Ballygarratt, Ireland, to Canada. Searching for his sons.
Hi.
I'm searching for relatives of my great uncle, William Ivory, from Ballygarrett, Co Wexford, Ireland. I believe he has two sons who live in Canada (don't know which part) and I would love to hear from them. I've been told that one of them went back to Ireland a few years ago to discover his roots, but I don't think there's anything left, apart from an uncle in Tipperary.
My grandmother, Mary Ivory, was William's sister. When she died in 1927, my dad Patrick Burke and his brother Tom and sister Cath were brought up by his Ivory grandparents in Ballygarrett.
I have very little further info myself, apart from the fact that William and Mary's grandfather was called John Ivory and he moved to Rochester, USA, later in life. He died in Coolroe, Ireland in 1926.
Any info on the whereabouts of the Ivorys would be gratefully received.
