Missing - The Siblings Of My Grandfather - Austin Scahill

Where Are My Grandfathers Brother And Sisters? Do You Know?

I'm looking for information on the siblings of my grandfather Austin SCAHILL-70, b. 3 Dec. 1878 at Westport, County Mayo, Ireland.

No trace of his brother or sisters were found in the 1901 census. They possibly moved to Paisley, Scotland and from there one or more of them may have moved to the United States.

There names were:

• John SCAHILL-109, b. 18 Oct. 1873 Westport,
• Bridget SCAHILL-110, b. 27 Jan. 1875, Westport. Possibly moved to the U.S.
• Mary SCAHILL-111, b. 23 Dec. 1876, Westport.

They were the siblings of my g grandfather who was also Austin SCAHILL-107 (Married Twice), b. 1840, County Mayo. who may have died. June 17 1893.

My gg grandfather was John SCAHILL-430, b. 1800 ?, County Mayo, d. 1868.

There spouses surnames were:

• Austin married (1) Margaret CURRIGAN-108 daughter of Patrick CURRIGAN-112 and Anne WARD-113 on Sep 01 1872 in Westport, R.C. Church, County Mayo, Ireland. Margaret was born in 1841 in Ballyhip, Louisburgh, County Mayo, Ireland. She died.,

• Austin married (2) Honor SCAHILL- 429 daughter of Edward SCAHILL-432 and Anne SCAHILL- 433 on Oct 17 1869 in Westport, R.C. Church, County Mayo, Ireland. Honor was born in 1845 in Cloonagh, Westport, County Mayo, Ireland. She died on Jan 19 1872 in Prospect, Westport, County Mayo, Ireland.

John married Margaret REILLY- 427 on Sep 01 1826 in Westport. Margaret was born in 1792. She died on Sep 16 1868 in Prospect, Westport, County Mayo, Ireland.

Any pointers to the whereabouts of my grandfathers brother and sisters would be appreciated.
