Genealogy: Looking for information Patrick Byrne
I am hoping you can help me. I was really pleased to find your community website as I am trying to find information regarding a Patrick Byrne who came from Millstreet, Cork. During the late 1930s, early 1940s he worked in London as a builders labourer. I understand he had a family in Millstreet. Frustratingly this is all the information I have, I am doing this research on behalf of my mother and it is important to her to find out what became of him. Would it be possible to post a message on your website to see if it means anything at all to any descendants of any Byrne families?
Many thanks and kind regards, Sharon Lees <email>
