It has been seven years since we were last in Ireland. Heading there this week and plan to make it to Annfield/Goldengrove, a very tiny area between Borrisoleigh and Thurles. That is where my Maher/Butler family lived and where my grandfather was raised. The brick wall continues with these families. I now have info on my grandfather's siblings, but know nothing of the Butler side. The families apparently lived, grew up and married in Goldengrove (Monroe/Drom parish). I have all the Baptismal info from TFHR and the marriage of James Maher and Mary Butler (my great-grandparents - 1864). James' father was Thomas and Mary's father was Edmond/Edmund. I know neither of the mothers. Have narrowed James' mother's maiden name to four women, possibly Dunne, Ryan, Benson or Butler. Names that have been associated with my Maher/Butler family and are repeated in records are, of course, numerous Butlers and Mahers, Foley(several including Johanna, Judy, Margaret, Bridget, Mary, Jeremiah) Bradshaw, Stapleton, Fogarty. It appears from census records that some of those families lived in the tiny area of Annfield/Goldengrove. Don't know if they were related, but presume the Foley family was. My grandfather Patrick and half his siblings immigrated to the US; the other half went to Scotland, Maryhill/Glasgow area. One brother, John, returned about 1909 after their father died and he and his family are listed in the 1911 census with Mary Butler Maher. John's children with Mary Bradshaw : James, Thomas, both born in Scotland and Hannah and William, born 1908 and 1911 when they returned to Ireland. Two mysteries continue: Listed with James and Mary Butler Maher in 1901 census or 1911 census were grandchildren Kate and Matthew. They belong to neither my grandfather nor any of his siblings, as far as records have proven thus far. I believe there is a cemetery located within a mile or two of Goldengrove, and intend to find it this next Friday. Not counting on finding much new info, but my children will get to see the land where their great-grandfather was born. Would love any leads or help on this and hope that someone may have info or connections! Joan

Joan, not much help but here is what I have in my Reardon/Hanley tree. In Co. Tipperary-Daniel Maher married to Anne Moloney: Anne Moloney was born in Feb 1875 and the child of Patrick Moloney (1844-1930) and Catherine Ryan (1850-1915). Again, not much but you never know what happens when you put something out there. Carmen D.

Joan, There are two cemeteries where the Butler's are buried. Kyleanna and the old Cemetery in Inch. If you got to this website you will find the listing for both cemeteries.

I don't know if this will ever help you, but a George Bradshaw had a child with Judy Maher, Judy Bradshaw, in Pallice/Pallas, Borrisoleigh bap. 7/26/1834. I don't have any other children, nor the marriage. I have a marriage of a Patrick Butler to Margaret Bradshaw in Thurles on 2/14/1806. I also have a lot of records for the Bradshaw's of Pallas and Coolderryvrin, and you can contact me directly if you ever want them.
