I'm hoping that someone can help me out with this entry.? Perhaps Peter Langley will know the answer.? I have a Phineas Hunt, who married an Elizabeth Langley in 1814, and am wondering if this is the same Phineas Hunt of the above entry.? Elizabeth was the daughter of a Going woman.? The family and descendants are part of that overall Protestant database I have been working on for about 10 years now....... Cindy Wood

    3. >From Novels and Novelists from Elizabeth to Victoria http://books.google.ie/books?id=bc1_9GZ5nQEC&pg=PA151&dq=Tipperary&lr=&as_brr=1 Marguerite Countess of Blessington Marguerite Gardiner, Countess of Blessington, was one of the six children of a certain Edmund POWER, Esq. of Knockbrit, in the county of Tipperary, and afterwards of Clonmel. With the great pretensions to gentle descent which are usually found in Irishmen of no very illustrious origin, with a handsome exterior, debauched morals, and brutal tastes, this gentleman [Power] was a type of county Irishism in the last century [1700's]. He fought duels, drank, gambled, defamed the character of his neighbors, behaved with coarseness to his wife and with cruelty to his children, even tried his hand at murder-and eventually after a long career of sin and infamy closed an old age of ignominious dependence without evincing one sign of penitence. There was a completeness in the blackguardism of this scamp, which renders it highly dramatic and interesting. As a young man he was "the buck" of all Tipperary, and wherever he went, from hall to cabin, his fine figure and swagger, white cravats, super-abundant frills and ruffles, leather breeches, and top boots, excited enthusiastic applause, and gained him the honourable titles of "beau Power" and "Shiver the frills." He married the daughter of the judicially murdered Edmund SHEEHY, and after the first illusions of love had vanished, he used to employ his muscular arm in administering correction to that poor lady, and during the infliction of the punishment would painfully remind her that she was the daughter of a convicted rebel. As his small estate at Knockbrit gave him a few hundreds per year, like a spirited Irish gentleman. More on the delightful Mr. Power and the April, 1807 murder of a Lonergan boy at the addy above. Really interesting. Janet

These from The Dublin University Magazine: Recorded in the Gazette: Nov. 13, 1837 - On the evening of the 26th (October) the fair day of Golden, in the county of Tipperary, James CURRY, an inhabitant of that village, was violently assulted near his dwelling, by two men, from the effects of which he died on the 8th, in the infirmary of Cashel Nov. 6th -Sub-Constable Eugene SHEA was knocked down in the streets of Mullinahone, in the county of Tipperary, and his skull was fractured, on the night of the 22nd (October), by a man with a stone, from the effects of which Shea, after lingering, has since died - Dublin Gazette. Also here a long report of the murder of Denis MURPHY on the lands of Foxfort, near Bansha, as reported by the Tipperary Constitution: http://books.google.ie/books?id=44U32KAK1LcC&pg=RA1-PA759&dq=Tipperary&lr=&as_brr=1 Nov 12 - On Sunday night, another armed party came to the house of a respectable farmer named HONAN of Ballyhurst, within two miles of Tipperary (Town), and beat the inmates in a most savage manner. The family consisted of the father, and six or seven sons, so that the attacking party must have been tolerably numerous. The old man has since died from the effects of the injuries he received. On Tuesday night, the 14th instant, John MANNIX, of Kerryman, was brutally murdered on the lands of Ballykisteen, near Tipperary. He was a man who sold cows on time, and was, when murdered, going through the county collecting debts due to him for cows sold last year.

At least 100 men, in frieze, and many of them ragged, were standing about. "Is it market-day here?" I somewhat thoughtlessly asked the landlady, as we were changing horses. "Oh no", she answered, "the streets are generally as full at this time; they are men who can get nothing to do." Is this not enough to account for all the turbulence for which Tipperary is famous? Landlords in Ireland are naturally unwilling to believe the unpleasant truth, that the country is disturbed because the laborers are in misery, and I have heard some allege the case of Tipperary in proof of this.... In the parish of Tipperary there are above 600 laborers, and not more than 200 have constant employment. The food of those who get work is potatoes, to which they sometimes add sour milk in the summer, and a herring in the winter. When out of work they live in misery, beg and perhaps steal.

    3. Tim, Lancashire, particularly the city of Liverpool, contained a large number of Irish. During the famine and subsequent years, Irish poured into the city looking for work. If my memory serves me well, I think about that time the Irish constituted about 25% of the city's population. My GGF and his brothers left Tipperary and went to work in Liverpool about 1850, spent 15 years there before emigrating to the USA in 1867. Phil Buckley

    3. Hello Laurie, Thank you for this information. In the transcript of the Trial of Daniel and Elizabeth Macginnis at the Old Bailey, only Elizabeth's profession is mentioned, that of a Green Stall Keeper at Cloth Fair. If only they had mentioned Daniel's profession, this could have answered all our questions about Daniel aka Thomas. The Trial:- http://www.oldbaileyonline.org/browse.jsp?id=t18170115-59-defend423&div=t18170115-59#highlight I am hoping that SKS can assist regarding what County the Macginnis family may have come from. Do some family names stay in the one place and where they come from in Ireland is easy to have a guess at? Also, is it a safe assumption on our part to think that Daniel Macginnis and his family came from Ireland? I was a bit sceptical about Elizabeth, however she is Catholic as the children are. Also, with the ages of young Thomas born 13th Feb 1813 (from his headstone) and Elizabeth born 1813 and with their parents in 1816 being 40 and 42, you would think they may have had older children, maybe back in Ireland? A very high brickwall I know, and probably little chance of it ever being knocked down. Elizabeth Mcginnis never married after she obtain her freedom in Old Sydney Town, she lived until she saw her two children Thomas and Elizabeth marry in 1832, and not long after she died. She was buried in the Devonshire Street Cemetery, where Sydney's Central Station stands today, and on her headstone her children had inscribed, "...a wife and a mother..:. She was a remarkable woman, and her story on the voyage to Port Jackson and also in the Colony is a very, very interesting one. Though it appears she has taken the place of her birth to her grave.

    3. Janice . A lot of Tipperary men and families went to london that time span if the were in the building trade because london was having a building spree . They would also require labourers . also they joined the British army and could have been transferred to london . I have examples in both categories . Laurie ----- Original Message ----- From: Janice Doughty To: cotipperary@rootsweb.com Sent: Thursday, May 01, 2008 11:15 AM Subject: [COTIPPERARY] The Doughty and Macginnis (Mcguiness) Good morning Janet and Listers, Back in 1985 we received an invitation from the O'Dochartaigh Association to attend a very "large" Dougherty (and all different spellings of the name) family get together in Donegal/Derry. Sadly, we were unable to make it, as we still had all the children at home with us, and too many commitments and last but not least, no spare cash to make the trip. So far my husband's Doughtys have been traced back to Terrington St Clements and Walpole St. Peter, in Norfolk England. We have been able to reach back to Robert Doughty marrying Alice Gathercole in 1807 in the church in Terrington St Clements, and stop there. Between 1872 and 1880 five Doughty brothers sailed from Portsea to make their life Down Under, one Robert John Doughty and his wife, who was his first cousin Hannah Doughty, were my husband's g grandparents. However, we can go further back in history and find two Doughty brothers, Thomas and John who were close friends of Sir Francis Drake, serving with him on an expedition when five ships sailed from Plymouth in 1577. One of the objects of the voyage was to discover the legendary continent of "Terra Australis Incognita", (as we know that failed and it would be another 203 years before Captain James Cook met the challenge and discovered "The Great South Land"). Things started to go wrong on the voyage, and Drake charged Thomas Doughty with treason and mutiny. Drake had Thomas arrested and set up a Court of Law, Thomas was found guilty of mutiny and sentenced to death. He was beheaded and his brother John had to witness his brother's execution. So the mystery is, does the name Doughty have an Irish connection or not? We do also have another Irish mystery to solve, again connected to my husband's paternal side of the family. He has three convict ggg grandparents transported to the Penal Colony of Port Jackson (Sydney). One Elizabeth Macginnis of Middle Street London near Cloth Fair, must have been Irish, as was her husband or we believe they were, however we have no way to prove it. Here is the story, Elizabeth 42 was tried at the Old Bailey in 1816 with her husband Daniel Macginnis 40. Daniel was acquitted, however Elizabeth was found guilty of receiving a roll of stolen clothe in 1816 and sentenced to transportation for 14 years. She was taken to Newgate prison to await the ship that would transport her. However, before she sailed her husband Daniel died, and her two children Thomas 6 and Elizabeth 4 were sent to Newgate prison to be with thier mother. The family sailed on the female convict ship "Friendship" and arrived in Sydney Cove in Jan 1818. Elizabeth gave their religion as protestant. However, on the 1828 Census held in the Colony, Thomas now 18, has his own Merchant Store on the corner of Castlereagh and King Streets in Old Sydney Town and with him was his ex convict mother Elizabeth 53, his sister Elizabeth 15 and three Government Servants (convicts). Now here is the interesting bit, the three Mcguness (the name no longer spelt Macginnis) family members give their religion as ROMAN CATHOLIC. The story goes, that Protestant convicts had a better time of it, than those who were Catholic, and a worse time if they were Irish Catholic. We believe Elizabeth lied about her faith, to make things better for herself and her children, when details were taken from her for the Indent. Our search now, it to try and find Daniel and Elizabeth (nee ????) roots in Ireland and was it usual for Irish immigrants to make their way to London to find work?
