the patrick hynes and
bridget killallea family
This Hynes Family emigrated to the United States around the year 1847 and
eventually settled in Marcella Illinois. The father and mother of Patrick
are unknown as is the exact location of his birth but it is assumed that
it was somewhere near the town of Headford County Galway. It is fairly certain
that he was the brother of Ann Harkins who eventually settled in Burnsville
MN. There is also evidence that he may be the brother of
Catherine Geraghty who was the mother of
J.C. Geraghty of Rosemount.
