Four countries, many journeys
Townlands, cities, hospitals and cemeteries recorded across Ireland, the United States, Australia and France, with a small number of other locations.
The map could not load. The complete place list is above it.
The pins show approximate places. 14 of the places listed above are recorded only as a county or country, so they are not pinned. Cemetery and burial places have red pins.
Associations with people who may be living are omitted.
Every image is served from this archive. Historical insurance maps show footprints or sites, not photographs. Recent street photographs show the site today and may not show the same building the family knew.
