Dear Paul,
Sonny mahon is not Clare's great grandfather. He is the oldest brother of her grandfather "Christie"; or if you like her father's uncle. He lived in Galway all his life, as did his sisters Mamie and Kathleen. His brother "Christie" moved to Dublin and his sister Rita moved to Sligo(as wife to Tom McEvilly).Another sister,Della, emigrated to the USA. That family grew up in Mahon's hotel in Galway and were a prominent Galway family. A tad neurotic however, or as they say to-day, dysfunctional!Clare's grandfather was probably the sanest one.

I realised my mistake as soon as I'd mailed you, this is Sonny Mahon...

I'll update Clare and she'll update the tree - any chance you could email in any dates and places of births for anyone we don't have? We won't put it on the site for those still living.
