Subscriber since last spring... never saw one mention of any McSherry's. So this is a longshot... Need info on the McSherry's from County Cavan. My g-g-g grandfather was Patrick McSherry, a tailor, who married Catherine Smith or Smyth, who, we believe, was also from County Cavan. The McSherry's, we're told, originally came to Ireland during some persecution (Reign of Terror?) period in France, and changed their name to McSherry to fit in with other Irish names Patrick and Catherine emigrated, with small children, to New York City around 1850. Their son, Matthew, married Elizabeth Chenet( her father was Pierre Chenet- no info on that family either). Their daughter, Catherine, married William Hahn. Their daughter, Margaretta, married Clarence Grant. Their daughter, Jeanne, married Richard O'Neill. They are my parents. Thanks Todd

I have a few (OK, 2 Sheridans...) married into my Fitzpatrick line in Carricknashoke. They are fromPetersville, Moynalty, Carrickallen RC, Ireland Father: Phil 1800s Son: Thomas c 1843 Sorry but I haven't done research on the line. Met a Sheridan who gave me the info. His tree showed he was related to the famous military Sheriden (an). I have Annie Fitz Tulliinchion b c. 1891(Father Edward) married to Clerkin. Annie died Jan 23, 1937 -- buried with her parents. I don't have a thing about husband -- just what was on the grave marker. Every where I look I find so much information that I never delve into the sidelines -- sorry.

Fellow Cavan Researchers -- I am new to the list and currently searching for Cavan connections. Specifically I am searching for information on John and Mary (nee unknown) ROURKE and their extended family members. John and Mary, both born circa 1820, were land occupiers in the Townlands of both Upper and Lower Corratober, in the parish of Killinagh, County Cavan, during the 1856-57 period during the Griffith's Valuation compilation. John's son Terence ROURKE, born circa 1841, married Mary FALLON, the daughter of Thomas FALLON of Stranamart, in January of 1868. Once married, Terence and Mary lived in the Townland of Stranamart, parish of Killinagh in County Cavan. Thomas FALLON is also listed in the Griffith's Valuation as a land occupier at that time. The identity of John and Mary ROURKE's other children remains uncertain -- although there were probably at least two other sons, Pat and John ROURKE. Terence and Mary ROURKE had nine children in Stranamart between the years 1869 and 1885: Pat, twins - John (my gf) and Thomas, Mary Anne, Catherine, Sicily (aka Cecelia), Terence, Ellen, and James. Terence's daughter Ellen ROURKE married a John M'HUGH (MCHUGH-M'HUGH) who, I believe, was also from Stranamart. John and Ellen had six children, all girls, and remained in Stranamart until she died in 1943. My gf John ROURKE, as well as siblings Catherine and Sicily, emigrated to the east coast of the United States -- John and Sicily to the Boston area and Catherine to New York city. John married Elizabeth CORCORAN from county Kilkenny, Sicily (Cecelia) married Michael GRIFFEN from county Galway, and Catherine never married. Thomas ROURKE died as an infant or small child, Pat and James are believed to have died young. I have no information on Mary Anne or Terence. Thanks in advance for any assistance or insights you might provide concerning the ROURKE, FALLON, and MCHUGH families, or -- churches and cemeteries of that area and era. Cheers, Jim O'Rourke

Thank you, Heather. I think we have been in touch in the past regarding the Lundie/Lundy name. Your information on the BELL name is new to me, so I will save it in the hopes that it will cross paths with my line at some point. By the way, I really like the layout of your site - so you do it yourself or is it produced by someone? I have a homepage through Genealogy.com, but for the past month they have been having trouble getting their servers to let some of us update our information, so I've been thinking that it may be time to find something better.

So far, the particular Farley family I am researching went from Cavan, Ireland to Douro, Peterborough, Canada to Otoe and Johnson Counties Nebraska. However, there were many children born in the US and since I am just starting this search, have not tracked them all down yet.

Hello Listers, Looking for Peter GRAHAM and his family in County Cavan. Supposedly, Peter was born about 1847 around the townlands of Mullaghard and Knappagh. No idea who his parents are. Also, looking for Thomas Murphy, born around June 1808 in County Wexford and his wife Elizabeth Bulger, born about 1821 in County Wexford. Their daughter Mary is believed to be born in either 1840 or 1844 in Gory, County Wicklow. Their first son, Patrick, is believed to be born in 1845 in County Wicklow. Second son was born in 1853 in New Orleans, Louisiana.

We are new to the list. I tried searching the Cavan archives but for some reason it is working for me. My grandchildren and I just found out that their family came from Cavan, Ireland. Patrick Farley b.abt. 1784/Mary O'Reilly b. abt. 1797 married bet. 1815-1822 went from Cavan, Ireland to Douro, Petersborough, Canada, between 1832-1839. Children that were born in Ireland are Michael, James and Patrick. There were 3 other children whose names I do not have as yet. I have another child born in Petersborough. On one of their son's marriage records from Douro, Petersborough, he lists being born in Cavan, Ireland. I would like some guidance on how to research the Cavan records for these Farley/O'Reilly families. Thank you. E. Sharp and the Farley/O'Reilly gggggrandchildren
