McDaid family gathering

There is to be a gathering of the descendants of John McDaid (my great great grandfather) . Please leave any information, comments or questions by clicking the 'Add new comment' link below.

  • Who exactly is John McDaid!? When was he born - was it mid 19th century? Where did he live? Who is our great-great-grandmother?
  • Where is it? - It's a hotel called the Caisealmara Hotel now (previously it was called McNamara's)
  • When is it? Saturday, 25th October, 2008
  • Party - Any ideas for party games during the party!?
  • Photos - We should all try to share our photos with each other afterwards.
  • Any suggestions? - I'd be happy to add or update this page in any way. Maybe others have ideas for what to put here?
  • Family tree Click that to enter the family tree

Please add any details to the comments section below (click 'Add new comment' - remember to sign your name if you like) and I will update them.

What would people think of an online family tree? I know this might be a privacy concern, so I will only complete parts of it with permission of those involved.

I'm Aaron McDaid, the grandson of Joseph McDaid (Joseph was Henry's son, Henry being one of John's sons). We can work together on a Family tree - just click that link and edit the information yourselves.
