Yes, Andy, This CoTipperary list is a very old one and so you should search the archives if you have not already done so.

Hello Joanne,  I cannot see a connection with my Hanrahans (Grangemockler/Ninemilehouse) but a quick look on the IFHF South Tipperary site shows 2 civil birth registrations at Cashel CP for 1866 Bernard Hanrahan and 1869 James Hanrahan. Father James Hanrahan Mother Mary Cleary (for both). You would have to purchase these records (5euro each) for further information but it may be a good place to start. good luck.

Joanne, if you search at the IFHF website http://ifhf.rootsireland.ie <http://ifhf.rootsireland.ie/> for any Hanrahan children whose mother's surname was Cleary, you will find these two, in County Tipperary: Civil Birth Hanrahan Bernard 1866 Co. Tipperary fa: James mo: Mary Cleary Civil Birth Hanrahan James 1869 Co. Tipperary fa: James mo: Mary Cleary It is very possible that the child called Bryan was registered as Bernard. Do those dates of birth look approximately correct? (The year listed is actually the year the birth was registered, which of course happened some time after the birth. There were penalties for registering late, but people sometime got around those by lying about the date of birth. You will sometimes find records for children who were somehow "born" after they were baptized! (Not really, of course.) To get search results such as above, which are free at the IFHF website, you must first register, which is also free. The name of the child and year of birth as above will be displayed when you select the Standard Search option. However, to search on mother's name, you must select the Advanced Search option, which does not display the child's name or the year. Hence, you must toggle between using both as you further refine your search in response to the hits you get. I searched on Cleary for mother and Hanrahan for father and then refined my search to determine that the 2 "hits" were for a father with first name was James and mother Mary Cleary. The listings above are only the index entries, available free. If you click on the magnifying glass image at the end of each entry at the website, it will take you to the website for the Heritage Center with which the record is associated, in this case Bru Boru, which covers southern Tipperary http://tipperarysouth.rootsireland.ie <http://tipperarysouth.rootsireland.ie/> Once at that local Heritage Center's website and using the Advanced Search again, with Cleary for mother's maiden name, you can cycle through the choices for Parish/District (selecting only those marked CP, which are for civil registration records, as indicated in the index entries) and will discover that Cashel (CP) is the name of the Registrar's District (not parish!) in which both births were registered. To see the names of the children and the dates, you must be use the Standard Search option. It is more complicated to explain it than to actually do it once you are familiar with the website! If you want to see a transcription of the civil record at the IFHF website (not an image of the original civil record) you must pay. However, I know the same civil birth records are on microfilm at the Family History Library, and that some of the information from those records has been extracted and is available online free by searching at the FamilySearch website: http://search.labs.familysearch.org <http://search.labs.familysearch.org/> The following extractions from the civil birth records appear there: Name: Bernard Hanrahan Gender: Male Birth Date: 18 May 1866 Birthplace: 0534,CASHEL,TIPPERARY,IRELAND Father's Name: James Hanrahan Mother's Name: Mary Cleary Indexing Project (Batch) Number: C70128-8 System Origin: Ireland-ODM Source Film Number: 101127 >>>>>>>> FHL film number Collection: Ireland Births and Baptisms, 1620-1881 Name: James Gender: Male Baptism/Christening Place: 454, CASHEL, TIPP, IRE Birth Date: 17 Aug 1869 Birthplace: Cashel, Tipp, Ire Father's Name: James Hanrahan Mother's Name: Mary Cleary Indexing Project (Batch) Number: C70139-4 System Origin: Ireland-VR Source Film Number: 101192 >>>>>>>> FHL film number Reference Number: 2:HW3MQ3 Collection: Ireland Births and Baptisms, 1620-1881 The original records can be found on the FHL film numbers above. The two films above can be ordered at a local Family History Center near you and you can view them there. A third option for getting these records is to order a copy of the civil record from the GRO in Ireland. The original record should have the father's occupation listed, and perhaps his townland of residence or street address, and the name of the person who reported the birth and their qualification for reporting it (e.g., parent). You will not find civil records of birth for the earlier children because civil registration of births in Ireland did not begin until 1864. You will not find baptismal records for any of the children at the IFHF website (if they were baptized at Cashel) because it is in the Diocese of Cashel and Emly, which offers its own research service (TFHR) and does not participate in IFHF.

Elaine, Ballygriffin looks like it was once anciently a very large piece of land and later broken up into Religmurry, Kilfeakle, Golden and Ballygriffin. The most memorable thing I have found where it was named was: "In 1786 a moving bog broke out and joined the R. Suir at Ballygriffin Bridge: 300 acres which it covers are rendered useless to the proprietor." Then: On March 27th, 1788, a large bog of 500 acres at Ballymore, near Knockavilla, began to be agitated for three days before it burst on the 30th March and flowed towards Ballygriffin, Golden, burying 4 houses and covering a large tract of land. Rest assured it has been drained and will not burst upon you while you are visiting. :-) Some of the old names I have come across are: BALLYGRIFFIN or Ballegriffin or Ballygressen or Ballygressine OR VILLA GRIFFIN OR GRIFFON OR CAPELLA TRIFFUN OR VILLA GALFREDI Janet On Mon, Jul 11, 2011 at 6:11 PM, E.

Hi Kevin, Thanks for this reference in Tipperary town. It could be my Mary (Honners) English or a near relation. I'll have to see if I can find anything relating to the Englishes in that parish - a broader look.

Hi Not sure if this is your line or not ;   Mary English was sponsor in April 1831 for the Baptism of Margaret Ryan in the RC Parish at Tipperary town. Margaret's parents were Henry Ryan and Ellen/Eleanor O'Keeffe.  The other sponsor was Patrick Burke.    Cheers   Kevin Nelson NZ

Hi Pete, It sounds very likely that there is a link between the ENGLISH and FARRELL families - but I'm afraid that I don't know quite how they connect. The Con English you mention as a sponsor in 1862 may well have been of my family but it isn't clear. I've just looked through all of my transcription material - but there are no Farrells in my records from Annacarty or Clonoulty and it isn't in the right timeframe for you anyway. Good luck. Let me know if you find any extra clues. Cheers, Allan On 5 July 2011 09:51, farrell peter <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Allan, > I was interested in your English records.

May be off topic as no Tipperary connection has been made.....yet. I might get that DNA test after all! http://www.latimes.com/news/science/la-sci-polar-bears-20110708,0,6814607.story Hope you can bear this news! Ed Madden Ridgefield, WA

In my family tree including those in the subject line, I have a Shewell family whom I believe were born in Ireland as were mostof their neighbours. Edward Shewell and his wife Christine Heffernan were both born abt 1820. Two of their children Frederick and James Francis were born in Guelph, Ontario Canada. and later farmed in the Dornoch, ON., area of Glenelg Twp. Grey County. Frederick married Catherine Barry, who was supposedly born aboard ship from Ireland, d/o John Barry & Margaret Nagle, who also farmed in Glenelg and James married Rose Anne Gillen, whose family farmed in Sullivan Twp., Grey County, also in the Dornoch area. Does anyone have any information on these families, both up-line and down-line? I have much of the down-line, but not all. Andy McAuliffe, Kitchener, ON., Canada

Hi Allan, I was interested in your English records. I'm not directly related as far as I know but a Con English was sponsor at the baptism of my great aunt Margaret Farrell (O'Farrell) in Annacarty in February 1862. She was born in Carhue (Carrow?) daughter of William Farrell and Mary Ahern. A Grace English was sponsor at the baptism of my grandfather John Farrell in Annacarty in 1869. Obviously not the Grace English that you mention but possibly related. I'd be interested to find out if there is a connection.

Sir: I've done a lot of research successfully as to my Irish ancestors; however, I don't know how or where to begin in a search for my late wife's great-grandather. John Farrell, of New Inn, County Tipperary. At some time before the Civil War in America (1861-1865) he emigrated to the U.S., presumably Tennessee, perhaps Memphis. In May, 1961, though married, with three cildren, he enlisted in a Tennessee Confederate Infantry Regiment (the so-called "Irish Regiment").Eleven months later, April 6, 1861, he was killed in the battle at Shiloh. What I just recited is all we know of him.Not known whether he had siblings;whether he married in Ireland or in the U.S; the name of his wife. My wife's grandmother was his 3 month old daughter when he was killed, so she knew little or nothing of her father's ancestry. if anyone has a suggestion as to what records for County Tipperary are available online. I would appreciate hearing of them/ Gene.
