Ireland
My Mullen, McDonnell, Hughes and Wickham lines, as well as a large number of those who married into them, have Irish origins. Below is a map indicating where various surnames in my tree originated from. Clicking on a surname will take you to the family tree entry for the emigrating ancestor (or oldest known ancestor) in the line. The year of immigration is for entry to the United States, unless otherwise indicated. This is by no means a complete surname list, I will be adding more surnames and info in the coming months.
A surname followed by a question mark indicates that the county of origin is based on family tradition only, or is otherwise uncorroborated.
If anyone has additional information concerning the origins of any of these families, please let me know!
