I am looking for information regarding Thomas Byrnes, born about 1878 in Shrough, Mt Bruis to Patrick Byrnes and Johanna Donahue Byrnes. There were 7 Byrnes' children. I am also looking for information regarding Katie Riordan, born also around 1880 in Kilross,daughter of John Riordan and Mary Dwyer. There were 12 Riordan kids and Mike, the oldest son, inherited the farm and stayed in Ireland. I have been told that the records for both families are in the catholic church in Lattin. I have been able to find no mention of either family in Kilross, Mt Bruis, or Lattin. I think the spelling of Byrnes may also have been Byrne. Any ideas for me to pursue ? They married in CT and are traceable once in the US, but I have no leads in Ireland. Thank you-Joanne

Joanne, I came close but no smoking gun. My wife's Reardon's were from the townland of Balleycohey, not far from Lattin Parish. Her g grandfather Jeremiah Reardon (son of Edmond/Edmund of Ballycohey) had a brother John James Reardon who settled in Pawtucket, R. I. His wife was Johanna Dwyer from Co. Tipperary (no other details) and they were married in Providence, R.I. Edmond of Balleycohey was married in Solohead RC Parish. The Reardon's are related to the Hanley's big-time in Ireland and in Providence. Some of the Hanley relatives are buried in Mt. Bruis cemetery. If you haven't you should also be checking Reardon. If you have any other info that may bring us closer let me know.

Carmen, three of my Riordans settled in CT.(PJ, Nora, Katherine) and one, Michael, remained in Kilross, got the farm, and never married. I have been told that other siblings left for Australia, California, and Canada, but I have no facts relating to them. Unfortunately, I don't believe any settled in RI. I know the spelling was changed to Reardon while in CT but have not looked for the Reardon spelling in Ireland yet, but will. Any way to get information on the burials at Mt. Bruis Cemetery ? The Byrnes' family that I am also researching were born in Shrough, Mt. Bruis. -----Original Message----- From: Carmen DiGiacomo <[email protected]> To: cotipperary <[email protected]> Sent: Sun, Jan 15, 2012 10:10 am Subject: Re: [COTIPPERARY] Mt Bruis / Kilross > Please remove extraneous text when replying: > Please remember to "snip" short the message to which you are replying, and > check the subject line.

Joanne, I went through the Lattin records and they are not there. I should think they will be in the Emly records probably. Carmen may know the Riordan family.
