If any one has any information about them I would be very pleased. also my great grandfather was born in scotland about 1855 to 1860 i believe his name was also michael. my father had some siblings i think he had some half brothers and sisters.He left home when he was very young and lost touch with his family.one of his brothers was named william and a sister was marie that is all i know about his past.would love to no more.My father married Jane Mc Enroe in Dublin about 1935.I know he was born in arklow and he was baptised in the parish church.My dad went out to Australia in 1977 the year after mum died he remarried in 1980, and had a few happy years before he died in 1993
