Patrick O'HARA [Parents] married Margaret MEEHAN on 2 Feb 1852 in Cootehall, Co. Roscommon.

It's thought Patrick farmed in the townland of Cleigna (also spelled Clegna) in Cootehall.

Margaret MEEHAN was born about 1834. She married Patrick O'HARA on 2 Feb 1852 in Cootehall, Co. Roscommon.

Could Margaret have been related to Ellen Meehan who married Laurence O'Hara, uncle of  Margaret's husband, Patrick?

Roger O'HARA was born about 9 Nov 1854 and was christened 9 Nov 1854.

It's possible Roger married a woman named Winifred because the 1901 census shows a return for the household of a Roger O'Hara, aged 50, of Clegna, Cootehall (Ardcarn), where it's believed the father of our Roger used to farm. Listed with Roger in the census are his wife, Winifred, aged 45, and a servant.

Because our Roger's father farmed in Knockaduff, there's a possibility that the Roger in the census could be our Roger, above. However, with the exception of Patrick, there's no match between the children's names listed on the census return and the list provided by the family (see below). Furthermore, the Patrick from the census was born about 1880 whereas Patrick, son of Roger above, was born in 1872.

Denis TREACY married Bridget O'DWYER on 28 Jan 1823 in Tipperary.

It hasn't been possible to link this Treacy family to our Treacys, but there may be a connection because this Treacy family lived in the parish of Tipperary which is close to Soloheadbeg. The information on this family was provided by Tipperary Family History Research (TFHR) because it was the only Treacy family they could find in the Tipperary / Solohead area which had brothers Denis and Thomas born between about 1820 and 1840, which would tie in with our Treacy family. However the father of the TFHR Denis and Thomas was Denis and not John. It's nevertheless worth including this Treacy family on the website.
