Betty, Who are the Bradley's your searching for in County Donegal? Where in County Donegal are/were they? I ask because I too, have Bradley's in (or had) County Donegal. My mothers parents were both born in County Donegal. Barbara

Can any kind soul provide me with the following information----or any suggestions as to where I may find the answer to the following: For which towns, parishes. townlands, or other did Mullingar (Westmeath) serve as Post-Town in the period 1800-1840? Many thanks for any possible help, Velma Geraghty vgeraghty@sympatico.ca

Hi everyone.......need you help......does anyone out there have access to the Irish census.....or can do look-ups...or can tell me how I can access it.......Would really appreciated any help you can offer Tony & Joann

The only complete census available are the 1901 and 1911, they are available via the FHC in your area. The FHC will have to order in the films from Salt Lake. I believe there are pay sites that have data available but I don't keep a record of these. Many members on various Lists have Websites that list partial census listing for the counties and Parishes in Ireland. Other than 1901 and 1911 which are complete the others are all partial.. The following URL's are for sites that have census data available, I did not put a name with each URL leave that up to you You will have to do a bit of digging. Bob Cdn.

Agee is a name found in the Nantes region of France. The original Agee in my background is Mathieu Agee who came to Virginia in just about 1700 with a land grant for service to King William at the time of the Glorious Revolution, which, if my memory serves me, occurred in about 1688. Mathieu was one of the founders of Manakintowne, VA. More info is available if you think it useful. Some thoughts: How would D'Assigney sound to the ear of an English census taker? Was there at the time of any particular census some benefit to him to be either English or Irish? E.g., many Irish immigrants to the US claimed to be from England or Scotland to avoid the prejudice against the Irish. Agee has been rendered many ways - Edgee, Age', etc. Ailsa Barnes wrote: > Hi Frank, > > Thank you for your reply... what an interesting idea. The honest answer is I > have absolutely no idea.

Hi list seeking help with finding the parents of MICHAEL WINKLE b 1854 at Castlemaine father believed to be William any help in finding Michael and any other family members would be very much appreciated Mick

JOYCE IS A CO MAYO NAME AND SO IS CONNEMARA have a great day

I am new to this list and would anyone be able to advise me. My husbands great grandfather was THOMAS JOYCE. In 1870, he got married in Pietermaritzburg, South Africa and his occupation was Superintendent of Police. We believe he came from Connemara County and went to America before he came to SA. He was born around 1835. Where can I start looking? Regards, Moyra Joyce Bedford South Africa

I, too, am new to Ireland Roots, and thought I should post my Irish ancestry in the hopes of finding a match somewhere. The surnames I am searching are: FORSYTH(E), PATTERSON, McKINLEY, and THOMPSON. My great x4 grandfather was George FORSYTH, who was born circa 1762 and lived in Ballymageogh, Mourne Parish, County Down. The family supposedly came to Ireland from Scotland. He married Mary PATTERSON, also from that region, around 1787, and they became parents to many children. One of them was John Forsyth, Sr., born & christened in September of 1788. Elizabeth McKINLEY married him on 9 May 1813, probably in County Down also. She was born March or May of 1790 to William McKinley and Jane THOMPSON. Elizabeth's parents both resided in Camray (near Rathfriland), Clonduff Parish, County Down and were married circa 1789 in Griswold, Wapello County, Iowa, USA. He was born circa 1764, and she was born around 1768. John, Sr. and Elizabeth immigrated to the USA 23 May 1843 aboard the ship "Georgianna". via the ports of Liverpool, England and Philedelphia, PA., USA. Oral history has it that their 2nd oldest son, James (the eldest, William, died at age 2 in 1816), found conditions in America better than in Ireland and so persuaded the family to leave their homeland. The entire family, which included 9 children, sold their 6 acres and packed up their belongings. In November of 1853 John, Sr. passed away in Wapello County, Iowa and is buried in Kirkville, Iowa. Elizabeth followed him in the spring of 1873, also in Wapello County, and is probably buried in the same cemetery. Their children were: James, Mary Jane, John, Jr., William, Eliza, George, Thompson, Fanny & Archibald. John, Jr. is my direct ancestor. He was born 31 May 1820in Ireland, and he married Ellen PERRY (daughter of James & Mary) in autumn of 1849 in Allegheny County, PA. He died 7 December 1858 in Wapello Co., Iowa, USA. She died sometime after 1853. My line of descent from John Forsyth, Jr. is James E. (Ellsworth?) Forsyth, Leland Roy Forsythe, Audrey Forsythe Birk, Karen Birk Weatherford. I am very excited to be involved with this list, and I look forward to reading all of your postings!

Hi all, Many years ago I had an English genealogist doing some research for me including for my Irish roots. He found my grandmother's family but unfortunately I lost the letter in which he told me where he had got the information (I'm sure it was Census). Anyway I have not been able to find anything further even after writing to Parish's etc. Does anyone have any ideas of where I could go next? The following is all the information I have: James Duffy (father) - Museum attendant Mary Breen (mother) no marriage or birth details for either of them Children: Bernard Duffy born 1882, Dublin Thomas Duffy born 1884, Dublin James Duffy born 1886, Dublin John Duffy born 1887, Dublin Bridget Duffy born 1890, Dublin Patrick Duffy born, 1892, Dublin Mary Elizabeth Martha Duffy born 29 March 1895, Irishtown, Dublin (my grandmother) Christina Duffy born 1898, Dublin Any help would be greatly appreciated, Olive, Western Australia Olive Bandy

Hi everyone, I am new to this list and wonder if anyone can help me. I have recently discovered that my great great grandmother was born and got married in Ireland. Her name was Martha WILLIS born MACAHOY. She may have been born around 1835 and got married around 1860. Her first child, Lucinda WILLIS was born in Burma in 1863. There were three other children born of the marriage but have no idea where, either Burma or South Africa. Lucinda was married in SA in 1885. Where can I find marriage records of that time and also if someone was born in Burma (India) would they have been recorded in Ireland or India? Help. Regards Moyra Joyce Bedford South Africa

Hi Frank, Thank you for your reply... what an interesting idea. The honest answer is I have absolutely no idea. There is a theory that Adgey is derived from the Huguenot name D'Assigney, but I have no proof of that either. All I know is that it seems that my 3rd G. Grandfather was Irish... that's all I have.

Please don't get disheartened! We're all in or waiting for the same boat! I have Bradley's...I know where he was in the US, I have his immigration papers. Do you think I can find out where he came from? HECK NO! I know it's Ireland, says so on the immigration papers, says so on the Civil War enlistment/discharge and pension papers. Can't even find him on a boat coming here (I know they were ships but to a South Philly girl, if it floats, it's a boat) I thought, based on long ago discussions on some Rootsweb list, the Havilands, were part of the deHavilands (as in Olivia DeHaviland). And that those folks descended from Norman invaders. But that's just me extrapolating from 30 years of reading Irish novels/research and Rootsweb for the last 7 years or so. I'm no help at pinpointing them though. Sorry - just don't give up and if you know birth dates, I'd suggest spending the money to send for their Irish Birth certificates. If they are available, it would provide the next clue. In a message dated 1/10/2006 9:11:39 PM Eastern Standard Time, avonlindah@hotmail.com writes: Well, the other problem is that I don't know the original name, so I don't know whether we're Havilands, as in the ones from England and the China, or Havlin, or what. Until I can trace back John and Ann "Havlin", born around 1780 in Ireland, and Roger and Cecilia "Havlin", born at the same time in Ireland (their daughter Ann married John, the son of John and Ann Havlin), I don't know how to proceed any further, even to find out what the name originally was. It changes in records from one spelling to another. When I started searching on the internet I was firmly informed that there were NONE of THE Havilands from Ireland, but I keep finding listings in the census for them all over the place, so I refuse to dismiss the possibility. Anyway, that's where I'm at. On my mother's side I have a surplus of Taylors in England to sort through..the same story..George, son of Thomas Taylor, married Mary, daughter of John Taylor..but at least I have their birthplaces...Linda H.
