He we go!!

So what is this all about?? Another blog to follow? My name is Stephanie and I am a decendent of Patrick "Paddy" Dolan from County Mayo, Ireland. There are many Dolan's out there and I am trying to connect us all, so we will be able to share stories, photos, etc.
The Dolan's for years with the help of Ambrose Dolan had a typed newsletter that he would mail out to all Patrick Thomas Dolan and Bridgett "Mamio" McNamee realatives. I am hoping we might have another way of communicating vis this blog!
Unfortunately, I do not have a picture of Patrick "Paddy" Dolan to post or of his wife Jane Hynes.  What we do know is that he was b. 7 Mar 1820 in Leckanvy, Mayo, Ireland and d. 11 Jul 1895 in Clinton County, Ireland.  His wife Jane Hynes was b. 8 Dec 1833 in Mayo, Ireland and d. 10 Dec 1908 in Clinton County, Ireland.  So by starting here maybe together we can trace their past as well as the future of the Dolan's.

We know that a majority of Irish immigrated to the United States around 1847, will have a post later that describes the plight of the Irish.

Would appreciate any information you might have to help on our journey!!
