Thank you to Jean R. for this history. I will pursue the book you suggest. I presume it may tell me from which ports in Ireland passengers embarked to reach England and then Plymouth to further their journey? Thanks Ruza Aust.

Prior to 1890 surviving passenger lists in Ireland owe their existence to ship owners, who kept them for business reasons.

These lists generally provide the name, age, and address of the passenger, and the name of the ship. In the years 1847 to 1867 J. & J. COOKE carried 21,199 passengers to North America. In 1847 alone it carried 5,071 emigrants: 1,197 (23%) to Philadelphia; 2,210 (44%) to St. John, New Brunswick, and 1,664 (33%) to Quebec. A look at the order book of J. & J. COOKE, which lists the emigrant's place of residence, confirms that Derry served as an emigration port for Cos. Donegal, Derry and Tyrone. Of 1,395 passengers carried on J. & J. COOKE ships in 1850, 533 (40%) came from Co. Donegal; 363 (26%) came from Co. Tyrone, and 307 (22%) from Co. Derry -- i.e. 88% of all passengers carried came from these three counties. By the 19th century the emigrant trade depended to a large extent on people in North America paying the fare to bring out family and friends. These "engaged" passengers ensured the viability of the passenger trade for Derry shipping firms in the middle years of the 19th century.

I hope everyone is having a great weekend. After a 2 year hiatus from doing my research (largely due to laziness!!) I'm on the hunt again for my ancestors. I have had a 9 year road block with my great-great grandfather named Anthony (also seen on records as Andrew and once as John) Wright. He was born in Co. Monaghan in either 1822 or 1823 (based on his death cert from Shettleston, Lanark, Scotland in 1872). Anthony married Ann MADILL (also seen as McDILL and MAIDALL) around 1843 in Co. Monaghan, location unknown. Anthony's parents were George WRIGHT (listed as "small farmer") and Mary MADILL (possibly he married a second cousin since this is his wife's maiden name also?). Ann's parents were listed as Matthew MADILL and Mary DEVLIN. I have been unable to pinpoint their exact home town but at the local LDS center I did find a common denominator town of Dartree for the WRIGHT, MADILL and DEVLIN surnames. I do know that they were protestant. I have records for the births of all but one of his children (William Henry Wright was born in Ireland also about 1845 in Monaghan). This has proven to be a very frustrating situation where I cannot take my own last name past 1822. I have also cross checked with Scotland on George and Mary Wright to see if perhaps they were from Scotland but went to Co. Monaghan for farmland, etc. and then Anthony came back but haven't found anything yet. Anthony came to Shettleston via Thornliebank in the late 1840's early 1850's and then Ann passed away in 1859 from stomach cancer. Ann would have been born about 1826 according to her death certificate. What advice would anyone offer as to how to proceed?? I have had others glance at Griffith's for me but it hasn't shown anything concrete. What would the next best step be? I know many good records were lost in Ireland so this will be a difficult task. No matter what the cost I want to move forward to find out more about my immediate family. It's frustrating as I have other parts of my lineage going back to the 1680's but my own surname stops in 1822. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Take care! Regards, Gregor Wright Lititz, PA USA

hi! Seeking information on the family name of Foley living in the area of Clohane, Co. Kerry in the years before 1910 . I am only looking for before 1910. I have found one family by name of John Patrick Foley with wife ELIZABETH MCGILLICUDDY . married in 1906 came to Boston in 1907. John parents were John Foley and Margaret McKenna, Elizabeth parents Gerald "Jermiah" McGillicuddy and Ellen Donoghue. Can anyone help? Thank you Michelle

Diane, The only possibilities I can see are the names Bonar/Bonner. You can go to this site and search these two names. It is a pay site but you can search the names without registering and without a fee. http://scripts.ireland.com/ancestor/index.cfm Mike On 1/29/06, Don Wixted <dwixt601@hargray.com> wrote: > > My gr. gr. grandmother came from Ireland and died in US.

BALLINA CHRONICLE Ballina, Mayo, Ireland Wednesday, May 8, 1850 BIRTHS April 29, at Pembroke-place, Dublin, Lady Kilmaine, of a son. April 27, at Moyoda Castle, Lady Claremorris, of a daughter. April 27, at Kilrush Glebe, the lady of the Rev. J.F. Robbins, of a daughter. MARRIAGES May 1, in Lurgan Church, the Rev. Robert Sewell, Methodist minister of Cork, to Jane, eldest daughter of the Rev. Wm. Herbert of Lurgan. April 20, in Rathlin Church, R.H. Wallace Dunlop, Esq. of the Bengal Civil Services, to Elizabeth, daughter of the Rev. R. Gage, of Rathlin. DIED In Castlebar, on Friday last, after a short illness, John Symes, Esq., of this town, aged 54 years. The deceased gentleman had been in that town on the Earl of Arran's business, and died at hte residence of his friend Charles Malley, Esq. DEATH OF JOHN SYMES, ESQ. It has not fallen to our lot since we entered on our present career to record a more melancholy event than the death of John Symes, Esq., which appears in our obituary of this date. It is only eight years since, in his capacity of Agent to the Earl of Arran, he became a resident in this town. Previous to that time he was a total stranger, but such was his constant and punctual attention to his duties, and such his honest devotion to their discharge that, notwithstanding the post which he filled, rendered so especially arduous during the late trying years, he gained the good-will and respect of both landlord and tenant. In his magisterial duties he - by his strict impartiality and genuine integrity - won the approbation and esteem of his colleagues; and in the circle of his acquaintances his kindliness of heart and tried benevolence, joined to his sterling honesty of character, rendered him the true friend and faithful counsellor of all who had the happiness and honor of knowing him. On Monday morning his remains were conveyed to this town from Castlebar, and interred in the churchyard of Ardnaree, accompanied by an immense number of all classes, parties and creeds - each anxious to pay the last token of respect to one whom in his life time they would have delighted to honor. We regret to communicate the death of the Right Rev. Lord Robert Ponsonby Tottenham Loftus, Lord Bishop of Clogher, which took place on Sunday last. His lordship was in his 77th year and 47th of his Episcopate. The diocese of Clogher is the last which has been abolished by the Church Temperalities Act. Its reserves, which amount to £12,000 per year, go to the Ecclesiastical Commissioners, and the diocese will extend from Ballyshannon on the West coast, across to the neighbourhood of Newry, and down to Drogheda, embracing the counties of Fermanagh, Tyrone, Armagh, Monaghan and Louth. There are 45 benefices in the diocese of Clogher, including perpetual curacies.- Lord Tottenham was created Bishop of Killaloe in 1804, Ferns in 1820, Clogher, 1822. He was uncle to the Marquis of Eli, and brother-in-law to Lord Hawarden. Cathy Joynt Labath Ireland Old News http://www.IrelandOldNews.com/

BALLINA CHRONICLE Ballina, Mayo, Ireland Wednesday, May 8, 1850 In Cork there were 50 drunkards committed to bridewell on Saturday night, and 31 on Sunday night, besides 29 charged with robbery, vagrancy and rioting, making a total of 116 within 36 hours. Captain Dyas, stipendiary magistrate, died at Ballymena on Saturday last. He served throughout the Peninsula and with the 51st at Waterloo. Constable Odium and party, of the Cregbrien station, arrested Michl. Cleary, charged with the murder of Michael Cleary, of Crossderry on the 18th of September. The Great Midland and Western Railway Company have subscribed £500 for a steam-packet to make experimental trips between Halifax and Galway. It was resolved to engage the Viceroy, which recently made the passage from Dublin to Glasgow in fourteen hours and twelve minutes. The Viceroy, Captain Ewing, is announced to sail from Galway, the 1st of June, for Halifax direct. On Thursday last Sir John M'Neil was elected junior Warden, of the grand lodge of Freemasons in Ireland, in room of R. Cooper, Esq., deceased. There were 130 of the craft present at their rooms in Dublin. Richard Kinealy, caretaker, was murdered at Lismatigue, Kilkenny, on Monday, while in charge of an evicted farm. According to a return recently made, the total number of gallons of proof spirit distilled during the year ending January 5, 1850, was - in Ireland, 8,355,038 gallons. There remains little doubt that the loss of the Royal Adelaide steamer was occasioned by the bursting of the boilers and blowing up of the vessel. Mr. H. Hill's Pitsford won the two thousand guinea stakes at Newmarket on Tuesday, beating Lord B. Lennox's Beehunter, the favourite, by a neck. The Cushla Machree, emigrant vessel or New York, belonging to Evans and Son, of an from Galway, on the 30th of March, when 1600 miles from Cape Clear, was struck by a heavy sea, and thrown on her beam ends, when the three masts were cut away, and other measures taken to keep the ship afloat. They hoisted signals of distress and the Infants, Captain Purdy of New York, stood to, and ultimately 159 of the passengers and crew were taken on the Infants, and arrived in Liverpool. All the passengers, with the exception of a family of eight, in the cabin, were destitute.- The poor creatures were all from the neighbourhoods of Galway, and were conveyed to the Liverpool workhouse for relief. Two farmers residing near Roscrea, were served with threatening notices on Thursday night, cautioning them on pain of death to have nothing to do with the land in which Michael Moran sold his interest - the party then broke several panes of glass in the dwelling houses and fired shot through the bedroom window.

SNIPPET: Stage coach travel in Ireland began its golden age in the 18th century. There was a good road system and routes generally radiated to and from Dublin. By 1737 there were regular services from the capital to Drogheda, Kilkenny, Kinnegad and Athlone. The first permanent Dublin-Belfast route, running 2-3 days a week, was established in 1788, bringing the number of provincial centers linked by stage to Dublin up to twelve. From 1789, the Post Office awarded mail contracts to coaching firms. By 1834 there were 28 mail coach lines, with 40 coaches, operating out of Dublin. Fresh teams of horses were introduced at stages, usually at coaching inns. Journey times improved. In the 1840s the Dublin-Cork mail coach took 18 hours and Dublin-Belfast 12. A century earlier, a Dublin-Belfast winter journey took three days. Up to a dozen passengers traveled inside and eight on top! Often, if the coach broke down, passengers had to walk to the next stage. Until the 1820s coaches were accompanied by military detachments and guards with blunderbusses (a short musket) to discourage highwaymen. In 1838 a Dublin-Belfast ticket cost 27s. 6d. inside and 15s outside, plus a tip for the coachman. Journeys were timetabled and advertised, with contractors' penalty clauses operating. By the 1840s the railways had all but replaced stage coaches.

"Fire Upon the Hearth" I am the pillar of the house: The keystone of the arch am I. Take me away, and roof and wall would fall to ruin utterly. I am the fire upon the hearth. I am the light of the good sun. I am the heat that warms the earth. Which else were colder than a stone. At me the children warm their hands:I am their light of love alive Without me cold the hearthstone stands. Nor could the precious children thrive. I am the twist that holds together The children in its sacred ring. Their knot of love, from whose close tether No lost child goes a-wandering. I am their wall against all danger. Their door against the wind and snow. Thou Whom a woman laid in a manger. Take me not till the children grow! -- Katharine Tynan (1861-1931)

THE CONNAUGHT JOURNAL Galway, Monday, October 18, 1824 DARING OUTRAGE - ATTACK ON KILBRACK COTTAGE. We have the very disagreeable duty to perform of describing the particulars of a daring attack which was made on Saturday night last by an armed party, upon Kilbrack, the residence of M. Cragh, Esq., near Doneraile, a Gentleman well known, and deservedly esteemed and respected throughout the County. At a few minutes past 7 o'clock in the evening, a violent rapping was made at the dining-room window, where Mr. and Mrs. Creagh was sitting at the time. The former immediately inquired from the inside - who was there? - to which a voice from without answered, not to mind, but to open the door. Mr. Creagh replied that he would not. "Then open the hall door," said the same voice, "we want you, and do not mean to injure you," upon saying which the person proceeded to the door, to which Mr. Creagh also went, and was again called on to open it. This, he said, would not do, neither should they come in nor should he go out. One of the party, who it could not be distinctly ascertained was armed, then called out, that if the door was not opened they would set fire to the house. The answer of Mr. Creagh may be considered a rash one, when it is considered that the house was thatched, built in cottage style and that he had no arms in the house for his defence, having sent them away at the commencement of the disturbances, in consequence of being indefensible. "Do, and be d----d," was the reply, accompanied with a repetition of his determination neither to let them in, nor to go out himself. The resolute tone in which this was announced to them, seemed to make them hesitate how to proceed, but in a few minutes they let fly a volley of stones against the window, which destroyed forty-one panes of glass, and almost demolished the frames of the windows. The shutters which were outside, had been previously cut by some sharp instrument. Immediately, after this cowardly attack, the ruffians betook themselves to flight as fast as they could, and an express messenger having been sent into Doneraile for the Police, a party of that force under Major Carter, accompanied by Mr. Kiely, Chief Constable, arrived, in an incredibly short space of time, when a diligent search took place, but we believe unavailingly. The number of the party who made this daring attack upon as worthy and as respected a Gentleman as there is in the County, could not be ascertained with certainty. Four were distinctly men, two of whom were armed with guns, and we believe it is Mr. Creagh's opinion that their object was robbery, unconnected with any of those designs which the former disturbed state of that part of the Country may suggest. Major Carter's promptness upon this occasion, and his unwearied and indefatigable exertions whenever and wherever they are required are described to us by our respected Correspondent as being most meritorious, as also those of Mr. Kiely; and in the language of our informant - if tranquillity be not perfectly restored in this most unfortunate Country, it is not to be attributed to wont of zeal and exertions upon their parts.-- Southern Reporter.

SNIPPET: Patricia Condon JOHNSTON is the author of a book, "Minnesota's Irish" (1984). Another publication I am aware of is by the Hibernians of Minnesota: "From Ireland to Minnesota: Stories from the Heart." (1996). While I don't know if the American poet James Arlington WRIGHT (1927-1980) had Irish in his background, he wrote a lovely poem about horses with a MN setting titled "A Blessing." Mr. Wright was born and raised in the industrial town of Martin's Ferry, OH, taught at the University of Minnesota, Macalester College in St. Paul, Hunter College in NY and the University of Delaware. A BLESSING Just off the highway to Rochester, Minnesota, Twilight bounds softly forth on the grass. And the eyes of those Indian ponies Darken with kindness. They have come gladly out of the willows To welcome my friend and me. We step over the barbed wire into the pasture Where they have been grazing all day, alone. They ripple tensely, they can hardly contain their happiness That we have come. They bow shyly as wet swans. They love each other. There is no loneliness like theirs. At home once more, They begin munching the young tufts of spring in the darkness. I would like to hold the slenderer one in my arms. For she has walked over to me And nuzzled my left hand. She is black and white, Her mane falls wild on her forehead, And the light breeze moves me to caress her long ear That is delicate as the skin over a girl's wrist, Suddenly I realize That if I stepped out of my body I would break Into blossom. -- James Wright "Good Poems"selected by Garrison Keillor (Penguin/2002)
