Looking for family members
I'm looking for my father's family. My grandparents were Patrick and Mary (Brady?) Barrett. They had 5 children, Tommy (deceased), Nora Ann, Jimmy, Patrick (my father, deceased), and Noel (deceased). My father's family was from Galway, and my father came to the States in his early twenties. I believe Jimmy lives in England now. Any information would help.

1901 census-set County=Galway

Sounds like they could be from Mountbellew area. Lot of Barretts in the general vicinity.
