Sinon O'Rourke Family Homepage

My great grandfather Sinon O'Rourke was born 1859 in Lisseycasey, Ennis, County Clare, Ireland. He emigrated to USA in 1873, settled for a while with siblings in Vermont and New York, then spent most of the rest of his life in Victor, CO. His wife, Annie Green, was born in 1863 in Calla, Ballyconneely, Galway County, Ireland. Sinon and Annie were married April 13, 1883 in Leadville, CO. I am particularly interested in finding information about Sinon's siblings and forebears, but any information about any relations is of interest.
Sinon and Annie's children were: twins Margaret & Thomas (1884), William Patrick (87), John Bernard (88), Mary Jane (89), Sinon Jr (92), Michael Godfrey (94).

Sinon is thought to have been one of 9 children, some of whom probably did not survive the famine years in Ireland. Known siblings include: Thomas O'Rourke, Mary O'Rourke Cutter (of Vermont, married to James Cutter).
