Hi Pat, I have written to you in the past trying to find my lost Garveys. I just went on to your Co. Clare site and saw the unknown blank space and thought I had better let you know I found them! I don't know how much you need for your records so I will just tell you that the parents were John Garvey and Sarah Crowe and they married in the Parish of Killaloe in 2 Feb 1851and there had six children, Bridget, James, Catherine, Darby, Johanna and John. They resided in Carrownagowan or in those days referred to as "Glen". I also wrote to you regarding my 'BROWNES' and found one child born in Annacotty, Limerick. I had been looking around and found Anacarty which was west of Limerick but going into Tipperary. I have tried many sites for William Browne and Margaret Burnes marriage but no go. I don't supose you have one up your sleeve I could try? ...even just to get the rest of the children on paper would be good. I got Mary from Family Search and have a request for the film in at the LDS. Anyway, thanks for your help in the past, I enjoy your site and hope my information will tidy up your records. regards Carol Garvey ----- Original Message ----- From: "Pat Connors" <nymets11@pacbell.net> To: "roll calls mailing list" <Ireland-roll-calls-L@rootsweb.com>; "Ireland mailing list" <Ireland-L@rootsweb.com>; <NY-Troy-Irish-Gensoc-L@rootsweb.com>; <fianna-l@rootsweb.com>; <SHAMROCK-L@rootsweb.com>; <genire-l@rootsweb.com> Sent: Friday, August 10, 2007 5:45 AM Subject: [FIANNA] Ireland tithe applotments >I have added new tithe applotments for Counties Tipperary, Kilkenny and > Limerick on my website.

I have just received from the Diocese of Clogher information about the Eskra Roman Catholic Parish and its cemetery. Eskragh was part of the Clogher Parish until its partition in 1870; and it contained 25 townlands and nearly 10,500 acres. The St. Patrick Church predated the establishment of the new parish, and it existed prior to 1833 in the Clogher parish. The cemetery surrounding the church in the townland of Lisnarable was consecrated 25 October 1840. But the lease for the land used for the cemetery came later. According to the diocese history: "The lease of this cemetery is dated January, 1843. It is a conveyance of Francis Jervis, for a consideration of five shillings, to Dr. Kernan [the Bishop of Clogher], Hugh Nugent, of Newtownsaville, and Owen M'Carroll, of Corkhill, of two roods and twenty-nine perches, at one penny per year." It seems as though Owen McCarroll of Corkhill may be an ancestor inasmuch as Corkhill was the townland that my great grandparents, Owen McCarroll and Catherine McCusker, farmed. This Owen might have been known as a Eugene, because my great grandfather was also known as Owen, and with his X he signed the marriage register during the wedding to Catherine McCusker as an Owen. But it was indicated that Eugene was his father's name and they came from Corkhill, but also that his name was Eugene. My great grandfather always used Owen as his name, and we thought that his father used Eugene. But this may change our thinking. We do know that Owen and Eugene are interchangeable. The Owen McCarroll from Corkhill, that was part of the lease agreement, may very well have been his father. But, there are many McCarrolls in that area and now we must see if there is anything that could be investigated about this transaction. For example, the conveyance lease may be available and it could lead to other documents that would shed light on this matter. Any assistance in this matter, or comments or suggestions, would be greatly appreciated. Regards, Jim Carroll

The Ireland GenWeb County Tipperary website has been updated. The following civil parish webpages have either been added or updated: Latteragh, Glenkeen, Thurles, Rathlynin, Rellickmurry & Athassel, Cullen, Emly, Templederry, Tipperary, and Solloghod-more.

There were 81 new townland pages added (too many to name in this email), plus new pictures and many records, including Tipperary born found in the 1860 & 1870 USA Federal censuses and Ontario, CAN marriages, new tithe applotments, and church records for the following surnames: Fant, Burke, Kiely, and Quinn. You can find the website at: http://www.rootsweb.com/~irltip/tipperary.htm Please send comments, corrections and/or contributions to me off the list. Corrections are important because I do make mistakes, like putting civil parish maps on the wrong pages. -- Pat Connors, Sacramento CA http://www.connorsgenealogy.com

My post had to do with County Mayo, I have never done any research in County Antrim, but if I was starting to, the first place I would go would be the 1851 Townland Index which lists each townland found in the 1851 Ireland census. Once I found the townland, I would then know what barony, civil parish and poor law union the townland was found. Luckily it is online at: http://www.seanruad.com Also, Proni has a good geographical website with maps at: http://www.proni.gov.uk/ Go to the Geographical Index at: http://www.proni.gov.uk/geogindx/geogindx.htm Once you know the civil parish, you can click on Parish, find your parish and you will get a map of the county with the parish colored in so you can see where it is locate plus you will get a list of all the townlands found in the parish.

Hello all, How can I go about tracing the marriage and parentage of my g-g-grandparents from Tipperary. Willam BRITT married Ann FOGARTY and arrived in South Australia in 1851. William Britt b C1822 Tipperary, Ireland, d 8th July 1992 at Penola, South Australia Ann(e) Fogarty b C1825 Tipperary Ireland, d 13th October 1894 at Mount Gambier, South Australia. I do not have the names of the parents of either Anne or William, or which part of Tipperary they hailed from. Britt remains a rare surname in South Australia, but there were others bearing the surname Britt who arrived in SA in the mid C19. There would appear to be some family connection, and William's father or uncle may have been a Malick Britt (who probably did not emigrate). Other Britts from Tipperary who did come to SA were: Thomas Britt born C1819 d Adelaide 1902 (aged 83) John Britt born C1857, arrived 1866 'Peeress' occupation: Labourer, Carrier Patrick Britt born C1846, father Malick Britt, arrived 1866 'Peeress" occpn: Labourer Timothy Britt born b C1839 arrived 1858 "Nuggett" occ: Labourer Any ideas or assistance in any direction would be appreciated.

Thanks Joy At the risk of stretching your generosity I'd like to add a few thoughts and 'guesses' which might be helpful. 1. The family was most likely Landless & Illiterate. 2. The surname spelling is probably one of the 7 or so variations. [ there were literate Kerins in South Australia and I suspect the "Kerin " spelling may have been an administrative convenience. The family probably wouldn't know the difference !! ) But the first names would be accurate. 3. Patrick Thomas Kerin b abt 1845 and Elizabeth / Lisa Kerin b abt 1851 are certainly sister & brother and recently I found a highly likely additional sister Mary b abt 1847. I suspect there is more family somewhere. 4. I think they arrived in Australia in 1865 ... but I have no records for that. 5. Their father is recorded as Michael Kerin and mother as Mary / Maryann / Marion nee Magan / McGann / Maccann / McGuan Thanks for offering to help ... We plan to go to Ireland again but I need something tangible !
