Bresnahan and Fleming perhaps from near Killarney
Researching Cornelius Bresnahan b. ca 1799 and wife Margaret Fleming b. ca. 1799. She appears alone in 1860 in Manchester NH with daughters Julia and Honora and two other Bresnahans Margaret and Patrick. Neither of the latter are her children. Son Andrew married Mary Leary in Manchester in 1855. Their son Cornelius A. born near Concord in 1856. Anyone researching Bresnahans in NH?

Hello Maureen,
I read your posts and you have a wealth of information. I don't know if I can help you or you can help me? I'm writing to direct you to a different board: www.killarneytown.com/forum/
I am researching Bresnahans along with two others in this forum. There is also a Brosnihan List coorindator on this forum. I do know of a David who has Bresnahans in New Hampshire and Pat (the coorindator) will be able to direct you to his information. Although with all the information that you have, I'm sure you have probably already stumbled across his posts elsewhere. But come join us in Killarney! I would love to hear how you traced back so far, if it was with LDS and how to tackle those microfilms.

Bresnahan
I believe I saw graves in the cemetery at Ronceverte, WV area with that name along with a lot of other Irish settlers in mid 1800s mostly from Co Kerry when I was checking on my Hanifan line. There is a Greenbrier Co. WV site on rootsweb.com and a historical society that has published most cemetery records. The people there are real nice and would probably tell you if that is the correct surname I recall and what cemetery books you would need to look in.
