I am a descendant of James Mannix and Mary Bourke. Their daughter, Margaret Mary MANNIX (born 1847), was my great-great grandmother. She married Patrick KEENAN (born 1841, Co. Westmeath Ireland), and had 9 sons.
I have collected photos of Margaret, Patrick and family over the years, and would be happy to share.
Hello Dean, Wonderful to meet you! I'm so glad you found my blog-perhaps you may be able to clear up some of the big mysteries of the Mannix/Bourke family, such as the ship on which James Mannix arrived, and the Irish county in which Mary Bourke was born! :) Thank you so much for your kind offer of sharing your Mannix/Keenan photos...I would be absolutely thrilled to view them. I have posted all of my Mannix Bourke photos in the blog, but if you would like your own copies I have them already scanned onto my hard drive and can easily email them to you. My email addy is sheridanallstate@bigpond.com I would love to talk more about this famiy with you. Looking forward to hearing from you, Jen
