My great, great grandfather Patrick Shaughnessy, or any of the many spelling variations was born about 1841,somewhere in CO Galway, he moved to England,and lived in Newcastle Under Lyme for many years, his daughter Mary Ann was born in Newcastle under Lyme, Staffordshire in 1870. Mary Ann had a number of siblings, sisters named Bridget, Ellen and others.
Mary Ann married Martin Rodgers of Newcastle in 1897, his family is descended from Patrick Rodgers, born in Roscommon in 1833.
Any information about this family would be appreciated.
