@huntercathy@hotmail.com Bartley Lynch from Ireland, who married, raised his children, and died in Akron, Ohio, was my great grandfather. His son, Thomas, was my grandfather. I have been on a search to find out where he was born in Ireland, and if there are any connections here in the United States and Ireland. He was married to Ella Whitman, Akron, Ohio, who died shortly after the birth of her child. He came to the USA in 1872 and became a Naturalized citizen in 1879. He was sponsored by a Hugh Flynn. I believe Barley had a brother who came to the USA with whom he lived with for awhile. His name was Owen Lynch and Owen was married to a women named Lizzie according to Census records. Any information anyone might have would be greatly appreciated. My information says he was from Crookstown, Cork, but in visiting there I could not find any information. Thanks so much.
