Five generations back to Carrowhugh

How the family today connects to a farm on the Foyle shore.

Start with someone you know and walk back. The line to Ireland runs through the mothers.

Generation	Person	Born	Died
Grandmother	Alberta Elizabeth Harmon	1912, Clark County, South Dakota	2001, Racine, Wisconsin
Great-grandmother	Mary Elizabeth "Mabel" Morrison	1888, Ireland	1982, Clark County, South Dakota
2x great-grandparents	Rose Elizabeth White and George Morrison	1861 and 1854, Moville Lower, Co. Donegal	1958 and 1915, Clark County, South Dakota
3x great-grandparents	James White and Mary Burnside	1837, Carrowhugh and Muff, Co. Donegal	1898 and 1914, Carrowhugh

The grandmother in this table is Carric's grandmother, so for Carric's children every row moves back one step: Alberta is their great-grandmother and James White of Carrowhugh is their 4x great-grandfather. People who are still living, including everyone in the two most recent generations, are left off this site on purpose.

Mabel was born in Ireland in February 1888. The tree records her, her mother Rose and her father George arriving in New York on September 24, 1888. By January 1890 the family was in Clark County, South Dakota, where George farmed in Day Township until he died in 1915 and Rose lived until 1958.
