I am researching the name SLINEY,(Slaney) a rare Cork name, with origins in the Barony of Imokilly, mainly in the area of the Middleton Poor Law Union. There seem to be a high proportion of mariners amongst them. I am interested in any references to the name in the general area. If anyone has any indexes/resources that they are prepared to look up, I would be very grateful for any information prior to 1850's(Griffiths). Negative results would also be helpful. Many thanks, Carol Freeston NSW Australia

Hello Listers, I am delighted to say that I have located in NYC some long lost cousins who have the same grgrandmother as I... Nora Murphy. There is much information which neither of us has, but I did learn from them that: Nora Murphy came from a large family in Ballyhooly. One of her brothers died as a young boy - drowned in the whirlpool of the Blackwater River. At least two brothers went to Australia to look for gold. They found it, came back to Ireland (Ballyhooly), bought farms and married. My grandaunt told stories of them having very long beards. We don't know the year of Nora's birth nor when she married John Archdeacon. It seems that the oldest of their four daughters was born in 1877. I know for a fact that my grandmother, Nellie (Mary Ellen) Archdeacon, the youngest of the 4, was born in 1885 in then Queenstown. They lived on Harbor View Rd. John Archdeacon left Ireland for NYC to find work (shipbuilding/carpentry???) In time, when his wife NORA MURPHY ARCHDEACON didn't hear from him, she feared he was ill so she set off with the youngest and oldest girls to find him in NY. (as the story goes, their letters and maybe their ships, passed each other). Nora was ill during the trip and a short time after landing, died in NY leaving the 2 children she brought with her orphans in a strange city. Meanwhile, back in Ireland, the two other girls, Katie and Mamie Archdeacon went to live with and were well cared for by Nora's brother James and sister ___ in Balleyhooley. My recently-found cousins are granddaughters of one of the girls (Mamie) who came over sometime between 1896-1898. In 1908 she married Michael Hade in NYC. She died in 1967. The girls remember Mamie telling them they had lots of MURPHY relatives in Ballyhooly. Does anyone have any info on any MURPHY family members from the Ballyhooley area? Do you know the name of any Catholic Church in that area? We can only estimate NORA's DoB to be sometime between 1850-1857. That would have made her about 20-27 when her oldest girl was born. We know nothing more about JOHN ARCHDEACON other than even the two girls in Ireland never saw/heard from him until the 4 girls were married and living in NYC. At that point in time they heard from him that he was living in England and 'down on his luck'. The girls were trying to raise the money for his passage to NY where they could rent an apartment for him. Unfortunately, he died - in England - before they were able to send him any money. If anyone has any leads for us - small as they may be - we would be grateful if you would direct them to me ... Eileen Tierney,cnd at etcnd1@Juno.com. Thank you!

Sherry Have you looked for an obituary in a local St Louis paper for Kate Nugent? and have you found her tombstone? Those are the most likely records to give place of origin. Also, check the church records for shortly after migration. I am assuming they are Roman Catholic, and sometimes the priest has information about their origin in the records. Most obviously, what I meant to say the other night, if they came to the USA, is have you found them on the Ellis Island site? You have the right time period. The place of residence column gave the tiny Mayo village of my gr gr uncle in 1900.

Elizabeth, Right now I am waiting for copies of the obits from the St. Louis, Missouri paper. I do know Katherine's date of death is 12/17/1918 and I know that she was 28 years old when she died. Supposedly her husband died around the same time during the same influenza epidemic. However I can not seem to find a trace of him anywhere. When I look at the burial lot where Katherine is buried, there are TWO Patrick Nugents and THREE Catherine/Kate Nugents. Unfortunately none of the ones that are buried there fit into an age group anywhere near Katherine's age. MY luck to find a family that likes to keep using the same names over and over... lol Thanks again ! Sherry -----Original Message----- From: Elizabeth W.

Hello again Being new to this list and to research in Cork, I am really inspired by the many helpful and knowledgeable people who have just answered my query about Carrigroghan (Carrigrohane). Thank you so much. Of course, it encourages me to ask another question. Does anyone have the CDROM which has Pender's edited version of the 1659 Survey of Cork on it, among other things? If so, would they mind doing a look-up for a Clements there? I read somewhere that a Clements does appear there. Barbara Holt in rural NZ

Hello, I am hoping someone will help me with a brick wall I've encountered please. I am searching for information on John Harrington of the Caobach line, from Castletownbere. John was born 1807. He married Margaret Houlihan from Filedarrig Parish, County Cork on January 30, 1826. She was born 1810. They came to New England, USA in 1850. This is all I know of them. I do have information on their children. I would like to find their parents and if possible such things like occupations, what ship they came over on, any documents... Thank you for your time! Kristey

Fellow-Listers I have a note that a John Clement, a probable ancestor, lived at Carrighoghan, Co. Cork in 1653, at least that is what the name looked like to me in 17th century hand-writing on a film I saw in Dublin last year. I seem to recall that someone listed a number of places beginning with Carrig recently on this list but I can't find the message now. Am I right? If so, could they please send me a copy as I did not realise at the time that I had an interest in them. Does anyone have an idea where this old Townland might have been in Cork ? It does not come up when I search an Irish Townlands site for Cork. Brabara Holt in NZ Searching for CLEMENT(S) and DELAHAY in County Cork.

Barbara, The name of the place you seek is probably Carrigrohane. It is about four or five miles west of Cork City.

I am tilting at windmills and because I never found the marriage record of my ggrandparents in Kildorrery, Cork. I have recently learned that Kennys from Co. Clare (the family I am presently looking at) sailed from Cobh to Australia in 1841. My ggrandparents would have been married in 1840 or 1841. It is possible that my James (the only missing member in the Australian family) before sailing from Cobh, met my ggrandmother in the area. I need to check for marriage records. I realize there is no heritage center in this area of Cork. Has anyone had luck with writing to the parish priest in the nearest parish to Cobh?

Here is a transcription of one. 5323. 21 April 1589: Grant to Thomas Saye; of the castle and lands of Carriglemlery, co. Cork, 13 plough lands or 5778 acres. To hold forever, the castle of Carriggrohan, by fealty, in common socage. Rent L31, 18s. 18d. Grantee must erect houses for 90 families, of which 1 for himself, 6 for freeholders of 300 acres, 6 for farmers of 600 a. and 42 for copyholders of 100a.

Barbara, If you just put in Carrig on the www.seanruad.com site and check the box on the right for "beginning of word" all the "Carrig" townlands will show up. If it is near Cork City it is possible that it is Carrigrohane. It may have been spelled as Carrigroghan at one time. Bill Fahy

Hi folks, We have recently found an 1840s headstone inscription for my family in the graveyard in Templevalley, parish of Mogeely (Conna) stating the family was from Bishopstown. This is new territory for me. I have been researching Fermoy and Castlelyons for years. Can anyone familiar with location, records, web site, church history - anything - please give me some direction. The family moved up to Castlelyons in the late 1700s from Bishopstown. I keep thinking this will end and it does not. David N. Murray Email Address: dmurray@totalnetnh.net
