Hello, I'm new to the list and really need some help please - Michael WALSH married Ellen O'DONOGHUE probably in Cork, may be Blarney but I don't know when. They had 7 children but I don't know the order of their birth but Peter (my grandfather) was born in Blarney in 1879 but again I don't know if he was the eldest.. Two of his brothers were born in England in 1882 & 1884. I presume the family came to England some time between 1881 and 1884 as they are not on the 1881 census. I would really like to know when and where Michael and Ellen married, and the order of birth of their children. I believe they lived in Waterloo which I think is part of Blarney. Any ideas anyone? I would be grateful for anything to help me past this particular brickwall. Regards Jean

I don't know any genealogists that I can recommend in that area, but I can tell you that you are doing the right thing asking for recommendations. You have to be very careful who you contract to research for you. I've just been bitten - a genealogist approached me after seeing one of my messages on another rootsweb board - and after looking at their website, I decided to take up their offer of help (they appeared above board, and high profile etc). Sadly, this experience has now made me very wary . . . be careful of paying money upfront, and be doubly careful of accepting an email offer from someone, without personally checking out references and recommendations. I live in New Zealand, so being 12,000 miles away makes it very easy to be taken for a ride. Just commonsense I guess - maybe I was too trusting? Hope you have lots of success! Best wishes SEONAID LEWIS

Dear List I have Mary Goulding who was born Cork, I have her marriage certificate which only states she married David Fenton in the Illawarra, NSW, Australia and the witness was a Robert Goulding.

Best wishes Amanda - Sydney, NSW, Australia

Dave & Seonaid, Thank you for your information regarding researchers. I recently was at the following site The National Library of Ireland and thought perhaps I should have one of the researchers look at some information for me on a particular microfilm. But so many listed - how to choose? Does anyone have any suggestions? I live in Minnesota and I do not have a trip to Dublin in my plans..

Seeking information on a John ARKINS who came to Victoria, Australia c1839 as a 10 year old. Later... on 5 birth certificates of his children he claimed to have come from Co Cork. John married in1855, Catherine HENRY, in Maitland, NSW, Australia. Names of the 1st two boys: John Charles and Thomas Henry. There was also a WilliamJohn. John's big interest was training race horses. Because he regularly visited Victoria, I'm inclined to suspect that he still had a family connection there. I'd like to hear from someone who knew of any Arkins in Co Cork.... I think they were pretty thin on the ground. Regards, Mary shortis@spot.com.au

I would love to hear from someone who is researching this family. JEREMIAH LYNCH married ELLEN MULLANE c 1830/31. Their son DANIEL LYNCH was born 1831/32 in Ballydaly, County Cork. Daniel came to New Zealand in the 1860's I cannot find any other children and wonder if anyone has these names in their research. I am going to Ireland in October and would dearly love to visit the places, churches etc. Regards Lorraine

Hello, I am looking for a genealogist to help me find family from County Cork, Ireland. Does anyone have any advice or know of someone who can help me? Thanks Cathy Morgan Galloway

I have just received some information on Cork ancestors and one of the surnames is "Schly". Has anyone ever hear of a name like that? I think someone could not read the handwriting and this is what they came up with. Haven't found anything similar in Griffiths either. I would appreciate any input. Thank you.

I would really appreciate any info at all. They have been my brick wall for some time. TIA. Anne Garland Lake Conjola N.S.W. Australia

John Grenham's 1st ed of TRACING YOUR IRISH ANCESTORS lists the Drimoleague records for the early 19th century to be on film at the Natl Archives of Ireland. I would find their web site under Cyndislist.com and follow directions for ordering records. I think I have some Protestants at this church too, but cannot put my hand on the file right now--just in case you want to make a note of it. Elizabeth KnowltonEW@Compuserve.com Message text written by INTERNET:CountyCork-L@rootsweb.com >From: panton <panton@telus.net> To: CountyCork-L@rootsweb.com It has recently been discovered that my great grandfather William Woulf(e) & 3 silbings were christened at the Church of Ireland in Drimoleague (1825-1844). Ann 2 Aug 1825 Susan 26 Aug 1829 William born 2 June 1833 Ellen 31 July 1844 These confirmed the names of my GG grantparents Thomas and Jane Woulf(e) (known from William's marriage records in Canada). At the time of the Christenings the family lived at Meenys & then Glannaclogha. Thomas & Jane remained in Ireland all known childrem immigrated to Canada. There was an older brother John (abt 1822)+ 3 unnamed sisters (all silbings moved to Canada) and possibly more who remained in Ireland. Previously all we knew was that they were from around Skibbereen. Does anyone have access to these records?<

Hello Moira - I have information on Doodys, however obviously notd yours because mine are from Co. Cork, in a townland named Caherbarnagh in Ballyvourney Parish. Anyway, the real reason for my reply is your name, Forde. I wonder where in Irelandy our Forde's are from? I have Forde family from townlands of Coolclogher, and Loumanagh, in parishs of Cullen and Kilmeen, Co. Cork. If you ever come across any Fordes from that area, let me know. As an aside, my daughter is named Maura Forde Casey - her middle name after my grandmother.
