Dear Tami, I also caught the bug, but whereas yours was only recently, mine was only about 50 years ago. You seem to be puzzled very much about your grandfather Timothy Harrington whose parents were Cornelius Harrington & Margaret Cumba. I could go further ---- to Timothy's grandparents who were 2nd cousins and had 7 children. There's nothing to it. It is very easy !!! Your greatfather Cornelius Harrington was born just before the Famine. He and his wife Margaret also had 7 children --- 4 boys & 3 girls. Cornelius had a brother who also married a 2nd cousin. Genealogy is great fun, coupled, as you say, with late nights. I had 50 years of those late nights ---- and I'm still battling on (Just about !!!). ---- Riobard.

Hello, I don't know where my Cumba family came from but stay tuned. Riobard's post makes me hopeful I will learn more.

Riobard, yes I have been very stumped on my grandfather. In reading your email I don't know whether to cry or jump up and down or maybe both! All out of joy and other emotions I can't label. Is the information in your books and I haven't came across it or some other source? 50 years of this bug could leave you chronically sleep deprived. :). I thought maybe it was just a passing phase for me and I'm sure my family wishes it was. However, I now know it will be a life-long journey and one that comes with ups and downs. This is definitely an up moment. Thank you for your vast amount of research and expertise!

Tami, The name Cumba caught my attention. That is a branch name of the Sullivans. I have been told that my Sullivans are Cumba Sullivans and mine lived on Valentia Island off the coast of Kerry from at least 1850 forward. Where did your Cumba family come from? I am assuming Cork, but I would like more information on them if you have it. Trying to narrow down Sullivans is like trying to match two pieces of straw to the original stalk that they came from in a barn full of it. Do you know where Timothy emigrated from? That would be a start. There is only one Cumbaw in the 1911 (in Limerick, born Kerry) census and none in the 1901 Census.

Hello All, I recently caught the genealogy bug. Ouch! What a mixed blessing of the thrill and heart warmth it has brought to learn about my ancestry coupled with the late nights and seemingly all too early work mornings. I had no idea of the addictive nature it was to have on me. With the help of Riobard’s books, Butte archives, and lucky hits finding obituaries in Newspaper Archives I am convinced at this point I can track my grandmother’s family to Coulagh house 15 on the 1901 census and house 16 Coulagh, Cork on the 1911 census. Coulagh is the Oneill home but I have not found if James and Johanna lived somewhere else. On my bucket list someday would be to travel to this area. Would this information get me close to where they lived or would I be able to google earth now? I would also love to connect with anyone that knows information about these Lowney’s and Oneill’s. From Riobard’s book I found my great grandmother Johanna Shea, Lowney, Oneill who married James Lowney and after his death (1896 – 1899) she married John Oneill. My grandmother is Mary Lowney Harrington (1885) who went to Butte in 1904 and married Timothy C Harrington in 1906. My mother is their youngest daughter Agatha M Harrington Rawls. Children of Johanna Shea, Lowney, Oneill were I believe as follows: John Lowney 1884 who married Brigid Hanley (thanks Riobard) (godparents Patrick Shea & Honora Shea) Patrick Lowney 1894 – 1931 who I was lucky enough to find his obituary in a Butte newspaper stating my grandmother Mrs. T Harrington in Black Diamond, Washington as his sister. His obituary also noted 3 brothers and 1 sister in New York and two brothers and a sister in County Cork. This is where I’m stuck on just who might be in Ireland and who might be in New York. Perhaps from the information below someone will be able to give me some information? Julia Lowney Griffin, Crilly 6/3/1895 who also moved to Butte and passed in 5/19/1959 . Again lucky to get her obituary (Dooneen) Johanna lowney 3/8/1890 (godparents Killian Shea & Bridget Shea) Elizabeth Oneill 8/10/1902 who pasted 1977 in Butte who my family visited on occasion. (godparents Patrick Shea & Mary Shea) Michael ONeill 12/1903 Timothy Oneill 1853 JohnONeill 1888 Jerry ONeill 1899 (godparents Richard Dwyer & Catherine Shea) Honora Neill 1900 (godparents John Sullivan & Mary Lowney) My Grandfather Timothy C. Harrington family is a total mystery at this point except that his father was Cornelius Harrington and his Mother was Margaret Cumba. Timothy (1877-1879) His obituary says 1877 but a military registration which is verified with his address of 13 Cora Terrace Walkerville (Butte) Montana says 3/15/1879. He immigrated 1890 and naturalized Oct 24 1898 witnesses John Cumba & James Holland. He worked in the Badger State Mine. Cain and Catherine Holland my mothers godparents feb 1920 at St Lawrence church. Timothy and Mary (my Nana & grandpa) moved separately to Butte and then to Park City Utah in 1910. They then moved back to Butte with known address 13 Cora Terrace which I was again lucky to come across a front page newspaper (Anaconda Standard) article describing the devastating fire my family talked about. It started in my grandmother stove and took 7 buildings on Cora street in Centerville. Their family of 5 girls and 1 son left Butte area and moved to Black Diamond Washington to the coal mines. Sadly Timothy died 1924 of pulmonary hemorrhage leaving Mary with a family to raise. My mother was the youngest at 4 years old. Amazing women! I would be very appreciative of any information or advice as I am a dedicated rookie. Tami Gilbert, Mount Vernon Washington

Dear Robert, Sorry for the short delay in answering you. Joan & I are just in from visiting a very ill person who lives about 8 miles away. The answer to your question is: it needn't have been any craft/trade in particular. If they were the people, they must have been versatile.

Friends at Beara, I am new to the group and found my way to Beara Digest in the process of tracing family back to Cork County. I have a question for anyone. We have a family name that has been given for quite a number of generations, usually as a middle name, and usually it is the first son in the family that passes it along. The name is 'Haulsey'. The various generations have a 'Joseph Haulsey Harrington', or a 'William Haulsey Harrington', 'John Haulsey Harrington', etc. But the name Haulsey may be a clue for us in tracing our family back to Cork. If anyone should be aware of this name, Haulsey, being used with the surname Harrington, I would be most eager to hear from them. It is not a usual name here in America, but we don't know about Ireland and Cork in particular. Is anyone familiar with this name? Thanks, Robert Harrington Cork to New York to Detroit to Texas in just over 150 years
