From Scotland to New Zealand

In June 1945 Peter Hannaway married Sarah Byrnes in Lislea, County Armagh. Welcome to the pages of their families.

For reasons of privacy the names and details of living family members are not included without their permission.

My thanks go to Benedict Martin for his research and his encouragement. Likewise to Paul Byrnes for his generous research of the Byrnes’ members who moved to Scotland or to the north of England. To Anna McParland (Doherty) and Patsy Grey (Collins) for their photographs and listening to my endless questions.

Many documents and photographs have also been supplied by Rich and Candy McGinnis in the USA-including original photographs of Hannaway's from the early 1900s. Eugene McCann shared his extensive local history knowledge & research by assembling histories of various families.
