Welcome to the O'Halloran Family Tree Home Page. My roots consist of a mixture of both Irish and English ancestors. My father's side of the family all emigrated from Ireland during and after the Great Famine years. The immigrant surnames include Crotty, (O')Halloran, Sullivan, and Sweeny. Finding ancestral roots in Ireland has been difficult, but I have had some success tracing the Hallorans and Crottys to their home townlands of Clogheen and Burncourt in County Tipperary.
On my mother's side of the family, the McKeoughs also came from Ireland during the Famine years. Otherwise, her ancestors are almost entirely of English origin, many of them Pilgrims, having immigrated to the US from 1620 to the 1700s. Immigrant surnames include Mayflower passengers Bradford and White, as well as Brewster, Buell, Bullis, Covey, Dewey, Doughty, Drake, Fitch, Grimshaw, Griswold, Jones, Manning, Odell, Tompkins, and Wolcott, to name a few.
