They were my great great great grandparents. They lived in Limerick until about 1840 when they settled in London. Their first three children, Jemima, Sarah and Jeanette/Janette were born in Limerick.

My Grandfathers name is Alfred Finucane and grew up in the Hawkes Bay District. I know his Grantfather immigrated to New Zealand from Cork in Ireland. It would be great to hear from other Finucanes around - not to many here in Little New Zealand!!

My great grandmother Bridget Reynolds was born c1850 in Ennistymon, Co. Clare and gave her mother's name as Kate Kanok or Kate Finucane. Bridget married in Ipswich Queensland in 1865 to Michael Murphy from Co. Tipperary. Finucane could have been Kate's second marriage because that is her name on her daughter's death certificate.

I've been told that my 3x great grandmother was born Ellen Finucane (married name Burke). She brought up her granddaughter who was born in 1875 in Kinvara and I'm pretty sure that she lived in or around Kinvara. Her daughter Lucy Burke married Richard Holmes Philips and the moved to London before their daughter's first birthday, leaving her with Ellen. If anyone has more information, please contact me. Lucy's baptism is apparently in the parish records in the national library in Dublin, but I won't be able to research there for a while. Thanks.

My grandmother was Mary Finucane. She came from Ireland about 1888 and by 1891 was in Jersey City, NJ. I assume that she was from the west of Ireland because one of my uncles did mention Cork and Clare when he "joked" about our family history. If you have any Finucane family with a Jersey City, New Jersey connection, please get in touch with me.

My Great Grandfather, William "Billy" J. Finucan, is said to be born Aug 10, 1882 in Limerick (don't know what city). I can remember my mother telling me he was from Cork, so he may have moved there prior to immigrating to Chicago. I know he was boxing in Chicago by 1900 so I assume he came over not too long before that. Any information on a connection would be greatly appreciated.

My gg grandfather, Michael Richard Finucane, migrated to Australia from Clare, mid-1800s. He married in Australia and his marriage cert gives his parents as John Finucane, surgeon, and Margaret O'Connor (might be O'Connell). I am interested in any other descendents of John and Margaret Finucane.
