I have been lead to believe and have visited Synan family in Doonbeg Co Clare Ireland. Are you by any way related to the Australian branch of the Synan family. If so can you please contact me on my email therese.kerr@hotmail .com . I have reason to believe that my great grandfather was named Michael Synan,although renaming children after ourselves makes it bloody hard to do family trees. Ido hope that you can assist us with our search and we can also add some value to your own search. thanks 2011-06-25 06:34:35Z theresekerr1 http://boards.ancestry.com/surnames.synan/7/mb.ashx http://boards.ancestry.com/surnames.synan/1.3.1.1/mb.ashx Hi my name is Ciaran Synan and I am from Ireland.<br>I was born in Limerick City May 1979 and I now live in County Cork.<br><br>My Father's Name is: Patrick Synan - (Born: March 1938) His <br><br>Mother's Name was: Margaret Synan and she married O'Sulliavan from Shanagolden County Limerick.<br><br>Your's Faithfuly Ciaran.<br><br> 2008-03-01 01:11:22Z CiaranSynan http://boards.ancestry.com/surnames.synan/1.3.1.1/mb.ashx http://boards.ancestry.com/surnames.synan/6/mb.ashx I have a John Synan/Synon listed on the 1920 census as a nephew to Martin &amp; Phenelophie Lydon.

I was just there Monday and had a very slow day, no questions from anyone. I was looking for things to do to while away my four hour shift. I go back June 15th, unless I make a special trip beforehand. In the meantime please give me all the information you can on your grandmother in Buffalo. When did she get here, when did she re-marry, at what church, date, when/where did she die, where buried, Buffalo address, etc. Any other data that may be helpful. I'll see what I can do.<br>There is no rush. I'll be out of town all of next week.
