Sunderland.
This is the Family History

their descendants. We are
looking at the Family of my Great Uncle James Brennan
and his wife
Annie Sunderland.
I
would be interested to hear from anyone who are releted to this family

information about my family, and the area that they
lived in. I know that there are a number of my Brennan ancestors living
in and around Carlow town and I would love to hear from
them.
