    1. [IRL-CAVAN] James MAGUIRE County Cavin - Help Needed!
    2. Kim Pasquill
    3. Hi Everyone, I'm new to the list and was hoping for some guidance as I have not done any research so far in Ireland. All the research I have done is in Australia, Scotland and England. My ancestors from County Cavan where: James Maguire born sometime btw 1817-1821 in County Cavan to Terence Maguire (Farmer) who was deceased by 1871 and Nancy Maguire ms Docherty also deceased by 1871. This information is from his death certificate. He married. Catherine Bannan in Oct 1846 somewhere in County Cavan (this information is from there children's birth certificates from Scotland), she is the daughter of Bernard Bannan and Catherine Roster? she was born sometime btw 1826-1835. It is my assumption that the eldest 3 of their children where also born in Ireland, but where I do not know. Bernard Peter born abt 1848 Terrance born abt 1853 The remaining 4 where all born in Glasgow, Scotland Catherine born 20/12/1860 died 16/1/1876 in Glasgow James born 15/7/1860 Mary born 245/1/1863 married James Mc Quade and died 20/12/1898 in Glasgow John born 17th Aug 1865. (I am descended from Mary Maguire) What I need to know is how I go about finding out where in County Cavan James and Catherine married. I believe they where Catholic. If anyone recognises any of the above names I would dearly like to hear from you. Any help will be most gratefully received. Best Wishes Kim Pasuill Victoria - Australia

    1. Re: [IRL-CAVAN] IRL-CAVAN Digest, Vol 2, Issue 84
    2. Thank you for your post. Oh there is much more, and this was only a little snippet. But, having said that, the Catholic marriages did not begin to be recorded until the 1860s, but there are parish records that predate that time. Much of the bitterness that comes from those times, and that in particular of Ulster, was a result of the problems of the Catholic and Protestant faiths. But, by 1912 (and earlier for other records) the Catholic Church was a recognized institution throughout the island. Cavan, fortunately, was not part of the partition but those of us from the six counties, including Tyrone, were. That leaves somewhat of a bitter taste in the mouths of the Hibernians. But, what about those that have different roots such as the Scots and Presbyterians? Some day, perhaps, the arguments will settle down and all of society will be better for it.

    2. The Griffith's index on failteromhat.com shows many Maguires in Cavan, of course, no Rosters, no Dochertys but a few Dohertys and Bannans. You might look for parishes with all three names and search those parish records. Diane </HTML>

    1. [IRL-CAVAN] McCarroll - Gaffigan marriage
    2. McCARROLL � GAFFIGAN Marriage. AGNES BRIDGET GAFFIGAN was born and lived in San Francisco before she came to Ireland to marry my grandfather MICHAEL JOSEPH McCARROLL (sometimes aka Carroll) of the Donacavey and Clogher Parishes, County Tyrone. They had met in San Francisco after Michael joined his two brothers. Agnes B. left for Ireland when she reached majority, but we do not know if she accompanied Mickey McCarroll on that journey. Instead of being married in the Fintona area, where his family lived and he chose to settle as a publican/merchant (after residing in Omagh at least until 1914), they were wed at St. Patrick�s Cathedral in Dundalk, County Louth. We don't even know if they traveled together, or where in Ireland they had landed, or even where they stayed before they left for County Tyrone to raise their family. We have no idea if marriage banns were published, but at that time there must have been. I was wondering about if it would be possible to see if some kind of note was placed in St. Patrick's Cathedral's records about their marriage which that took place 25 June 1912. (I do have the marriage record, but nothing else.) Mickey became a publican/auctioneer/seller of shoes and coffins at their public house on Main Street in Fintona (the pub owned by the late Mr. Francis McAtee). Michael and Agnes had a number of children, including my father: MICHAEL JOSEPH, b. 25 March 1914 in Omagh; PATRICK EUGENE, b. 1915, who passed away after three days; MARY CATHERINE (who became Maura when she migrated to the USA), 1917 and passed away in 2004; THOMAS LEO, b. 1918; BERNADETTE ANTHONY, b. 1919; and, KEVIN BARRY, b. 1921. All of these siblings had returned to the States in 1924 with their mother, after the passing of Michael Joseph McCarroll. Michael Joseph Carroll Sr. had left for California in 1887, aboard the Etruria, to join his brothers in San Francisco: THOMAS and PATRICK, who had become USA citizens. In 1904 Mickey also gained US citizenship. After sometime in the Bay Area he returned to Fintona and began a family in 1912. There is some speculation that he was ill in California and returned to Ireland because of that reason, but he had recovered from whatever the illness may have been. You know, this has been a mystery to me (and perhaps a mystery to others in my family) but it does seem quite funny. The two of them went to Dundalk to get married, before the partition so that was not the reason.

    2. Kay Stanton
    3. CAVAN WEEKLY NEWS, Friday, January 19, 1877 CAVAN PETTY SESSIONS. - Monday. (Before W. BABINGTON, R. ERSKINE, and John FAY, Esqrs.) Sub-Constable Woods prosecuted two persons for road nuisance. They were fined 6d. each. Constable GILLIARD summoned Patt DEVLIN for drunkenness. Fined 5s. and costs. Constable Gilliard also charged Denis BRADY with like. Mr. ARMSTRONG (who appeared for Brady) applied to their Worships to postpone the case until they would hear three summonses arising out of the same transaction. Mr. SHERIE urged their Worships to go on with the case. Mr. Babington (after consulting with the other Justices) - We will hear it now; but not measure the punishment until we hear the other cases. Mr. Armstrong - Very well. Constable Gilliard said he found the defendant drunk at the post-office about a quarter past ten o'clock, on the night of the 8th January. Mr. Babington - We will now hear the case of James GALLIGAN v. Denis BRADY for refusing to leave complainant's licensed public house on the 8th inst. There was a second summons for assault. Mr. Galligan said Brady and a man named PRATT came into his house seven or eight minutes before ten o'clock, on the evening of the 8th inst.; Brady was under the influence of drink; told him the "time" was nearly up, and for him to finish what he had and go out; he refused; saw some drunken persons coming across the street, and he shut the door to prevent them from coming in; told Brady and Pratt to go out by the hall door; they went into the kitchen; told Brady to finish his drink and go out as it was nearly ten o'clock; he refused to do so, and said he would get my license broken; at a minute before ten o'clock, witness caught Brady by the hand and spilled his drink; offered him payment for it; ordered him again to leave; he refused to go; he became very noisy; witness was about removing him when he assaulted him. To Mr. Armstrong - I gave credit to Brady's wife, and he cautioned me against doing so in future. I have no ill-feeling against him. Edward REILLY and John COONEY corroborated Mr. Galligan. Mr. Babington said they would hear the cross case of assault against Galligan. Denis Brady was then sworn, and gave a different version of the affair, which was not fully corroborated by Pratt. Their Worships fined Brady 5s. and costs for being drunk; £1 for refusing to leave Mr. Galligan's; and £1 and£1 costs for the assault; and dismissed the summons for assaulting Brady. Michael DONOHOE John CONATY, Bridget M'CANN, James REILLY, and James McCAFFREY were fined for drunkenness. F. G. DEVERELL, Esq., County Surveyor, summoned John Gaffney and his sureties for neglecting to keep his road in proper repair. Mr. FRASER proved the case. Their Worships ordered Gaffney to have the road in repair before the 1st of February, and pay 5s 6d costs. CAVAN YOUNG MEN'S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION. - The next meeting of this Association will be held (D.V.) on Wednesday evening, 24th instant, when a paper will be read by Mr. STUART on Scripture "Zoology." An essay by Mr. W. E. MERCER on "The Round Towers of Ireland," was read at the last meeting of the Association. A vote of thanks was unanimously passed to Mr. Mercer for his able paper on the subject. KILMORE YOUNG MEN'S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION. - We have much pleasure in announcing that Somerset H. MAXWELL, Esq., D.L., has kindly consented to become one of the Vice-Presidents of this Society. The next ordinary meeting will be held on Thursday, January 25, at 7 o'clock, p.m. Scripture subject - Acts xix. Short essays will be read by Messrs. John ACHESON and James BENNETT, and recitations will be given by several members. DEAD BODY OF A CHILD FOUND. - A few days ago the dead body of a child was found at Ballyhillan Bridge. The evidence adduced at the inquest went to show that it had been strangled. Some articles of its clothing have been identified as belonging to Mary A. M'DERMOTT, who is in gaol on a charge of concealment of birth. EMIGATION TO SOUTH AUSTRALIA. - The "British Enterprize," 1,620 tons, Captain John GREIG, chartered by the Agent-General for South Australia, left Plymouth on Friday for Port Adelaide with 440 emigrants under the charge of Dr. T. H. SAWTELL, Surgeon, among whom were 75 single female domestic servants under the care of Mrs. Margaret ROGERS, Matron. NATIONAL BOARD OF EDUCATION. At an important meeting of this Board, held on Tuesday last, in Dublin, the following commissioners were present:- The Rev. Dr. HENRY, President of Queen's College, Belfast (in the chair); his Grace the Duke of Leinster, his Grace the Lord Primate, the Right Hon. Lord O'HAGAN, the Right Hon.

SHERIDAN, Esq., junior secretary; Edwards SHEEHY, Esq., chief of inspection, vice SHERICAN, promoted; Brian MacSHEEHY, Esq., to a head inspectorship; J. Carmichael TAYLOR, Esq., financial assistant secretary; Peter Young, Esq., superintendent of inspection office. SUDDEN DEATH. - Mary Jane MULCAHY, a handsome-looking woman, 35 years of age, who lived in one of the most fashionable haunts of depravity on the north side of the city, and who passed by the name of Josephine SUTHERLAND, died suddenly at her rooms on Sunday evening. The deceased, who was, it is said, extremely fond of dress and jewellery (sic), and who was possessed of extraordinary personal vanity, was the wife of a medical gentleman in the South of Ireland - the County Limerick is stated as the locality. Her inordinate love of admiration and gaiety was so great that she is said to have abandoned a modest and respectable home in order to enjoy the greater attractions of city life. But her looks began lately to fade, and her health was lately rather delicate. She had, moreover, fallen lower and lower in her abandoned career until she had become the manager in partnership of a house of vice. On Sunday she went to visit her partner or employers, a woman named WILSON, then a patient in the Rotunda Hospital; and on coming home she died suddenly in her room. An inquest was opened on Monday at the Morgue, and adjourned till Friday for the production of some witnesses. - Dublin Paper. (County Cavan Newspaper Transcription Project)

    2. If your relatives hold the War of Independence Medals you can write to the Ministry of Defence, Renmare, Galway and ask for a copy of their application. Don't hold your breath as I wrote in March 2006 and am still awaiting the file!! Lorna

    3. I'd be interested in checking those records also. Dundalk jail in that time period figures in my family as well. Many thanks raising the matter of jail records and thanks in advance to anyone who can point a way to them. >From: [email protected] >Reply-To: [email protected] >To: [email protected] >Subject: [IRL-CAVAN] Prison records >Date: Fri, 13 Apr 2007 09:46:15 EDT > >I've recently learned that some Cavan and Monaghan relatives of mine were >imprisoned for nationalist activities in the late 19th and early 20th >centuries. >I believe at least one was at Dundalk Jail for a time.

    1. [IRL-CAVAN] Prison records
    2. I've recently learned that some Cavan and Monaghan relatives of mine were imprisoned for nationalist activities in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. I believe at least one was at Dundalk Jail for a time. Can anyone recommend a place to write to see if records remain? Thanks very much! Diane </HTML>
