Hi Mary. I found an old article recently about a Patrick McGeehan who had a sawmill accident in that area around 1895. My great grandfather was also Patrick McGeehan, orig from Lettermacaward (Derrylaconnell). Do you know if the sawmill accident was YOUR Patrick or mine? My Patrick McGeehan was married to Mary McGrady (McCraedy?) around that time. I think he lived in Hazleton. Not sure where he worked exactly but I believe he did a year in the mines before moving to Philadelphia around 1896.
Drop me a line:
