Individual Details

Eleanor (Ellen) MEEHAN

(Abt 1818 - 6 Nov 1902)

Ellen and Laurence farmed in the townlands of Cleigna (Clegna), Derrygirraun and Cloongreaghan in the Cootehall area of Co. Roscommon.

It has been suggested that Ellen was closely related to - perhaps a sister of - Winifred Meehan from Cootehall who married Thomas Logan.

It has also been suggested that Ellen and Laurence had a daughter named Jane, born about 1844 who married John Doyle in 1860. I have this Jane as a daughter of William O'Hara and Jane Boyde, but this couold be incorrect.

Finally, could Ellen have been related to Margaret Meehan who married Patrick O'Hara, nephew of Ellen's husband, Laurence?
