    I was born a Harrington.
    My father was Denis Harrington (1933-2009)
    My grandfather - Edward Harrington (1902-1966)
    My g.grandfather - Edmond Harrington (1864-?) born Mitchelstoen, Co. Cork, Ireland
    My g.g.grandfather - John Harrington (1838-1911) born Mitchelstown, Co. Cork, Ireland

    That's as far as I can get.

      Looking for info. about the parents, siblings, cousins, etc. of Michael Harrington, born 9-16-1816 in Cork, Ireland. He & his brother Edward, b. @ 1818, were kidnapped or tricked into working on a trading vessel (The Falda Star). They became "indentured servants", but basically slaves since they couldn't leave the ship for @ 4 yrs. from 1832 or 1833 - 1837. They jumped ship in Mobile Bay, Alabama, United States. Michael settled in Mississippi & Edward in Texas. Michael's my Great Great Grandfather. My Great Uncle researched this story.

        Researching Edward Harrington, brother of Michael of Jasper Co. Ms.  Edward is said to have moved to Texas soon after arriving in Mobile, Al. from Ireland.  After 15 years of searching, a photograph on facebook led me to Edward, who is most likely my GGF.  Any and all help appreciated.
