My great-grandmother, Mary Ellen Ryan Meehan was born 03 May 1863 to Patrick and Mary (Wrine) Ryan in St. Oswald's Parish , Accrington England. They immigrated to the US about 1866, with her 3 (or 4) brothers, and settled in Conesus, NY, USA
We are looking for records PRIOR to 1863 of Mary and Patrick in Ireland. Apparently the church records burned so we have no way of knowing where they were from.
Does anyone have any suggestions how I may find out more information?
Thanks for any help!
