Am interested in a possible connection.
My great grandfather THOMAS WALSH migrated from Dublin to Leeds, UK in the 1870's.
He had about 10 children. One of them was a Thomas Walsh who was killed in the Boer War 1899-1902.
Richard, Joseph, william and Sarah Walsh were all born in Leeds in the 1800's.
