In regards to your post...."My side of the Concannon family moved from Galway to Lancashire in the 1850's. Most of the children of Martin and Mary Concannon eventually left Lancashire for the USA."
This sounds like we may be related...Martin and Mary Concannon resided at 20 Mount St. in St. Helens,Lancashire in the 1881 census. They arrived in New York in 1884, and Martin worked at the Nichols Company at Laurel Hills New Jersey. His son, John Joseph Concannon was my grandfather. Does any of this sound familar? I have been trying to trace Martin back to Ireland, where he and Mary were born. Would love to hear from you.
