Hi Bryan Found this on Emerald Ancestors not quite the right time frame but family names was very strong in Ireland so could have a connection Record Type Civil Marriage Date of Marriage 15 Nov 1852 Groom Name Thomas FITZPATRICK Bride Name Mary Anne MARSHALL Church Langfield Lower Church of Ireland Parish Longfield West Civil District Omagh County Tyrone There are certainly other Fitzpatrick's in Omagh By coincidence My GGGRANDPARENTS CAME OUT ON THE Bombay to Auckland May 1865 They were from England The other side of the family came from Tyrone hence my subscription to Emerald Ancestors Patricia Hamilton NZ -----Original Message----- From: cotyroneireland-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:cotyroneireland-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Bryan Sent: Sunday, May 24, 2009 2:38 PM To: COTYRONEIRELAND@rootsweb.com Subject: [CoTyIre] Thomas FITZPATRICK born c 1851 Omagh Co Tyrone, m 1874,d 1911 Good day My great g'father Thomas (age 19) of County Tyrone emigrated to New Zealand arriving in Lyttleton aboard the 'Bombay' on 18 Aug 1866. A Mag. A. FITZPATRICK (age 17) was aboard the same ship. Another passenger list transcription refers to a Rose FITZPATRICK aged 16 instead. Thomas settled initially in Pigeon Bay, married Ellen CONNOLLY (b c 1852) of Co Galway and had four sons. Mag A/Rose may have married a Denis MAHONEY/O'MAHONY. The family is RC. Thomas' death certificate, informed probably by his wife, states his father as Thomas, mother unknown, and place of birth as Amar (sic). I've started with the assumption that this is Omagh in Co Tyrone, and less likely Co Amargh. But my various online searches find few if any Fitzpatrick's coming up in Tyrone. IFHS has 2 births about the right time but at this stage I'm loath to part out 10 Euros with the paucity of starting information they give you. I've some Griffiths and Tithe Applotement references - 3 I think. Does anyone have any of these family lines in their trees or suggest another starting point or avenue?
