    3. Seamus, place names and branch names are as different as chalk and cheese. Place names would cover the various townlands, or local areas in which people live. Branch names for instance show the various ways in which, let us say, take Sullivans/O'Sullivans are differentiated from one another ----- like Sullivan(Suonish), Sullivan(Rochtirre), Sullivan(Master), Sullivan(Tailor), Sullivan(Dorohy), Sullivan(Rider), etc., etc., etc. ----- Riobard.

    3. Dear Audrie, Since I sent my records to Boston, I have, naturally, been at a disadvantage as regards answering questions from our listeners, but I'll do the best I can from memory. Re. Denis O'Sullivan(Cohu) & Mary Rohane (=McCarthy) look in Boston in my records for a marriage circa 1846-1847. The trouble was that a good number of the old Church records were missing. That added to my problems, but information I got from very old people in the various localities while on my visits [with my good old friend, the accordion] helped me immensely. Were it not for my gathering many years ago of all this information from those old people who are now long since dead, it would have been lost forever. Daniel Lynn would be known in Ireland as Daniel Lyne. Yes. Denis McCarthy(Rohane) [m. Nora Harrington] of the townland of Croumphane had 9 children. I was teaching three of that Denis's greatgreatgrandchildren. That Denis was a bonesetter ---- never heard that he was a weaver. He was known as Denny Rohane. It was Denis (or Denny) McCarthy [m. Nora Rahilly (= O'Reilly] of Ballycrovane who was the weaver. The Denis Rohane [married Julia Harrington] was a bonesetter only. ----- Riobard.

    3. I don't post very much , mostly just read.

Branch names, the O's and the Mc's, records written down. People too busy moving forward and not taking their history with them or collecting it and putting it back where it belongs. I have been talking to the lost Irish for over 20 years here in the USA and many Irishmen and women here, do not even know who they were. They do their DNA and travel home to the ole sod. They see all the green grasses and the stone fence's, the sheep and taste the butter. The come away with the bitter sweet taste of Guinness, still foaming on their lip.  I have also been reading the Beara people's post(my people) for a long time now. It is nice to know some are still helping find our past. Mo tuath's like the Eugenian's and Clan na Rory are another lost part of us. Seem's people have went a long way have us forget our histroy and our derbfine . We are a proud race of Celt's and the Cork peple are amounst the best Erie has to offer.

    1. Re: [BEARA] branch names vs place names
    2. All this talk about branch names brings to mind my parents conversations as I grew up. There was Jim's John and Patsy Tim's John and John Red's John----Jim's Tim, John Red's Tim, Patsy Tim's Tim and Eugene's Tim. etc etc. Since everyone used the same first names for their kids, this was the way to keep them all separate. Several years ago I realized that John Red had a brother Paul that came from Ireland and John Red settled here close to Lincoln and Paul settled in O'Neill. I followed Paul's children and then I contacted some of Paul's descendants in Omaha and asked if they would like to meet their local cousins. They pulled up in my driveway and I was then sure that they were John Red's kin because they all had bright red hair. Unfortunately neither side seemed to want to keep in contact and so I gave up on the research for this family. Teresa Sullivan Lincoln Ne In a message dated 3/24/2013 12:17:18 P.M.

    3. Ribald will probably answer you more authoritatively than I can, but I can testify that in my father's area of Ireland, which was Longford (nearly as far from Bearable as you can get) branch names were used for all the different Duffy families. Otherwise the confusion would be total. As a child, growing up in NYC and listening to my mother and her sister talk (my father had no siblings in the US), I thought that the people,they mentioned frequently were actually named Shearig and Causkey and Cumba and Kane, only to discover much later that they were really Sullivans or Harringtons or Houlihans!

To: [email protected] Message-ID: <[email protected]om> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 *In middle of "spilling" rain, a party of 6 lovely people from Butte, Montana, led by Jim Barry, arrived at my door yesterday evening. As usual, I invited them in with a heart and a half. They were there to meet me. I hope that good people mightn't get the impression from all my research that I am a first cousin to Our Lord !!. Anyhow, we had a great evening. Being from Butte, there always is a particular welcome for visitors from that part of Montana to which many, many, many, workers from most parts of Bearawho worked in the copper mines in Allihies emigrated when work here in the local copper mines slackened off. Many of those miners used bring some earth from Beara to the mines of Butte in case they would never again see Beara. and the earth would be placed on their graves in memory of our Peninsula from which they came. After giving them a cead mile failte (= a hundred thousand welcomes) in Beara style, we all sat down to a most interesting evening's entertainment. I remember many of the people from Butte, while I was there, meeting such as Fr. Sarsfield O'Sullivan and his sister Vernie, John "the Yank" Harrington, Tom Mulcahy, Nealie Healy (from Barrakilla, Ardgroom) and his wife, Tracey Thornton, Ellen Crain, and many other fine helpful people who couldn't have been nicer to Joan and myself. I was in Butte many years ago making, with Fr. Sars, the Film "From Beara to Butte" about the copper miners who emigrated to Butte from Beara. I told them --- Jim and the people who were with him --- about the evening when I had a great session with "the Yank" (who lived to be over 100) playing his single-row melodion and me with my accordion ---- the two of us lifting the roof with jigs, reels and hornpipes; the story of when I was walking down a street in Butte when a man came up to me and asked "Are you the guy who was in the newspaper yesterday ?" "How do you know ?" says I. "Well" says he,"the map of Ireland is written all over your face !!"; and about the day "the Yank" & I were playing our Irish music on the aeroplane terrace in Butte. A big c rowd were around us. An air hostess must have heard us, because, when I got on the aeroplane to travel on, she asked me if I would play my accordion for the passengers, so, on the flight, my accordion was taken out and I entertained the passengers with plenty traditional Irish music all the way from Butte to Salt Lake City. I told them then about the Siege of the oldCastle in Dunboy near Castletownbere wh ich was destroyed when an English army of a few thousand men attacked the garrison of 143 in the Castle in the year 1601. I showed them a cannon ball which was dug from the ruins of the Castle by a Cork archaeologist some years ago when he was excavating. And then. of course, I took out my accordion and played some lively Irish traditional music for them. After about an hour enjoying themselves with us, I told them about the museum further west in Allihies (to which they headed) which shows many things associated with the local copper mines and the miners who later emigrated to Butte. They also spent a most interesting hour there as well. Despite the lashing rain, they headed back to Killarney waving heartily to Joan and myself standing in our door and sprinkling a drop of Holy water after them for a safe journey. ---- Riobard. * ------------------------------ Message: 5 Date: Sat, 23 Mar 2013 14:55:31 +0000 From: "Riobard O' Dwyer" <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [BEARA] BEARA Digest, Vol 8, Issue 83 To: [email protected] Message-ID: <[email protected]om> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Terrance, Rohane is, what we call here, just a Branch-name of the McCarthys ---- such as McCarthy(Strock), McCarthy(Bawnee).

I know that is how it is with our family members who have met you. You and Joan are family treasures for many of us.
