45. Thomas (Tom) MCDONNELL (Eliza Ellen (Lizzie) GORDON , Anne FOLEY , Michael? ) was born 17 or 18 June 1897 in prob. Corgarriff, Kilmovee, Co. Mayo. He died 14 Feb 1963 in Swinford, Co. Mayo and was buried in Glasnevin Cemetery, Dublin.

Tom emigrated to the United States as a young man. According to Ellis Island records, he arrived in New York from Liverpool on October 30, 1922. On the ship manifest it's difficult to make out his occupation but it looks like hardware assistant.

Tom's emigration was unplanned. The exact circumstances of his departure aren't known but his possible association with Free State governnment sympathisers (i.e., those who were pro-Treaty) may have led him to flee, even though he himself wasn't known by family to have been a supporter of either the pro- or anti-Treaty camp. In the course of her research, Kathleen Hegarty Thorne, author of They Put The Flag a-Flyin’, an account of the Irish War of Independence and the Civil War as they impacted on Co. Roscommon, came across a report of an incident involving a Treaty supporter whose brother appears to have accompanied Tom to the States a few weeks later. According to Kathleen, a Peter Sharkey who was a pro-Treaty activist from Edmondstown (Kilcolman parish), Ballaghadereen, was shot and badly wounded by anti-Treaty forces in September 1922 for apparently not having complied with an order to leave the area. Ellis Island records list Tom and a Bernard Sharkey together, Bernard giving as his nearest relative at home a brother, Peter Sharkey from Tobracken (in Kilcolman parish), Ballaghadereen. This may well have been the Peter Sharkey who was shot, and it may well be that Tom's possible association with him and/or his brother led to his sudden departure. It would be 20 years before Tom would see Ireland again.

Thomas married Mary (Mamie) LYNCH, daughter of Patrick LYNCH and Catherine MORRISON, in New York. Mary was born 14 Feb 1901 in Binion, Clonmany, Co. Donegal. She died 28 Jan 1970 in Dublin and was buried in Glasnevin Cemetery, Dublin.

Mamie emigrated to the United States in 1919. Around the late 1950s she and Tom moved back to Ireland.
