Any Teevan or Fitzpatrick names from Stradone, Larah or Drumlane Drung on list? Thank you. John Teevan

Re: "There is a Clifferna church in Larah -- also a Larah church. My family lives there and I never know which one I'm in! Clifferna is dank, smelly and old. There is a graveyard across the street from it I think. I told someone I have a picture of it -- but can't find it -- I'll post it when I do find it." I am familiar with the Church of Ireland. They have a graveyard in front of the church and on the sides, and maybe in back of the church. Across the road is St. Brigid (Roman Catholic) in Larah. We have been there. It is a new church built approximately in 1976-1981. It is modern and built round. I do not know where Clifferna is but I know where Stradone and Larah are. John Teevan

Jim, have your ever obtained baptismal or marriage records from the Catholic church in Clifferna. If so, did your address your letter Parochial House, Cliferna, Larah, Cavan? Have had good luck at St. Mary's in Kingscourt, Co. Cavan for my ancestors in nearby Meath which is in the Enniskeen Parish. Sorry for the error in my first message. Rosemary St. Louis

My maternal great grandmother was Bridget Brady. Bridget was born in December 1841. She lived in Aghaveans which was in the parish of Scrabby but is now in the parish of Gowna. Her parents may have been Bridget and Bernard Brady. Bridget married James Murray. They had at least six children: John Murray (born 1859), Peter Murray (born 1861), Edward Murray (born 1865), my grandmother, Mary Elizabeth Murray (born 1870-1874), Margaret, and Rosanna. My paternal great grandmother was Rose Dobson, the daughter of Catherine "Kate" Cahill and Matthew Dobson. Matthew was originally from the Mohill area of County Leitrim. Rose was born on November 23, 1845 and baptized the same day in St. Columba's Church, Mullinalaghta, County Longford. This church is just a few miles from Aghaveans in the Loch Gowna area of County Cavan. It is also close to Forthill, Arva in County Cavan where the Dobson descendants live today. The present Dobson farm may have been where Rose was raised. I hope someone can be of help. Colleen

Jim, I was in Knockatagaggart in 1972 to visit the farm of Michael McQuillan. My cousin and I were searching for ancestors in Ireland and had been in County Meath to see the family of Catherine Malone who had married Michael J. McCullen in St. Louis in 1900. They lived in Nativity Parish in North St. Louis until his death in 1945. His relatives in Ireland went by McQuillan, although I found his birth registration in the IGI at the Mormon LDS as McCullen, Our assistant pastor at Nativity was Michael J. Clark who was also from this area. Have you ever received any records from the R. C. Church in California? Rosemary St. Louis

Ok, and I have Fitzpatrick's in Greacrottagh Drung into 1975 -- haven't looked into them. That line starts with Hugh in Drumcalpin 1796 -- married to a Judith (1821 Census). They just HAD to have married a BRADY :-) My cousin Noel Clarke knew them (He's in his 40s). I stand corrected ...there are Bradys here! Edward born Drumcalpin went to Greacrotagh. He had a son Eugene. He's related to "a sister who married a Brady." Ok, Alex Trebeck...the answer is????? Somewhere I have Mary Fay signing a paper -- changed Gen. Programs and lost "witness" recording capabilities. She's related somewhere in there. Up along my cousin Marie's driveway are the Fitzsimmons -- and yes they married into my line :-) Thanks, Mo Maureen Fitzpatrick <maureen_fitzpatrick@yahoo.com> wrote:There is a Clifferna church in Larah -- also a Larah church. My family lives there and I never know which one I'm in! Clifferna is dank, smelly and old. There is a graveyard across the street from it I think. I told someone I have a picture of it -- but can't find it -- I'll post it when I do find it. The new Larah church was put up in the 1970-80s. Very modern -- I think round -- seems like they make me spend more time in them kneeling than standing outside looking Close by is an old graveyard -- lots of marble -- I think late 1880s-1920s -- I tried as hard as I might to tolerate the murderous barbed weeds in there but I was bleeding profusely and itching like crazy -- plus soaking wet. I mean the grass was over my head. Small area 20x20 square? My cousin says that it has been cleared out -- 2 years ago. Then theres the other church that's near a a big graveyard to the Carrickallen or Stradone Church -- I'm telling you its difficult to get them straight -- all near each other and I go over enough that I never give it much thought to names until its too late. The area is beautiful and lushly green. Most are farmers of Dairy -- then prices went too low about 8 years ago and switched to eating cows (sorry I'm vegatarian and don't know the proper names) -- Steer? They sent the milk to be made into cheese. Mad Cow hit and really bad for the farmers. I know my cousin has a very few just for their milk (more like a hobby). My other cousin sold the farm and moved to Baliebourough -- he's young 40s. Let me know how I can answer your questions better.

And what of Annie, Michael, Francis Dowd?? Are you related? I am. they are from Clifferna -- right across the street from the Church. Annie died recently -- 4 years ago? Annie never married. Michael lived in NYC I think. An earlier Francis Dowd married my relative Annie Fitzpatrick from Tulliinchion. Once again...will try to find pictures to post. My Fitzpatrick family was at Knocktaggert too. About 1970s, my cousin married a man who inherited land from a brother who bought it from Knocktaggert farmer. Beautiful land.

My interests are: Terence BRADY was my g-g-grandfather. He was born in about 1830, in County Cavan. At the time of the 1901 Census of Ireland he was a farmer, living with his wife Mary (maiden name unknown) in the townland of Carrickatober, DENN Parish, County Cavan, Barony of Upper Loughtee. He had one son, Charles, that I know of. Charles was born in about 1875, in County Cavan - possibly Garryross, in the Parish of Castlerahan. He married Elizabeth LEE (born about 1875/76) in about 1895/6. At the time of the 1901 Census of Ireland Charles lived with his father Terence in the townland of Carrickatober, Denn Parish. Charles, along with his wife and 4 children (Matthew (Mattie), Charles, Terence (Teddy), and John (my grandfather)) and Charles's parents lived in a 3rd class house, next to a corn mill, and Charles's occupation is given as miller. Their 4 children were all born around the late 1890s/early 1900s. Matthew's and Charles's births were registered in the District of Stradone, Cavan. Matthew - born 22.1.1898. He probably served in the British Army. Charles - born 14.7.1900. He probably served in the British Army. Terence - born about 1897. He ran a mill (flour mill) in Kells, County Meath. John (my grandfather) - born around 1899. He was raised in Ballyjamesduff by his uncle Thomas O'HARA and Aunt Ellen. (Ellen was probably Elizabeth Lee's sister). John BRADY married Mary FEGAN on 26 April 1922. FEGAN/FAGAN Patrick FEGAN (FAGAN) was my g-g-grandfather. He was born in about 1830. He was a mason (stonemason). He had one son, Michael, that I know of. Michael FEGAN (FAGAN) was my great-grandfather. He was born in 1856, in County Cavan - probably Ballyjamesduff (Barony of Castlerahan). Michael was, at the time of his marriage, a fowl dealer. By the time of his daughter Mary's marriage in 1922 his profession is given as building contractor (he was involved in the building of Kilnacrott Abbey) Micheal FEGAN (FAGAN) married Anne SMITH on 16 August 1886 in the RC Chapel of Ballyjamesduff, in the Registrar's District of Ballyjamesduff, in the Union of Oldcastle, County Cavan. Micheal and Anne had 7 children - Anne, Margaret, Kathleen, Rose, Suzanne, Patrick and Mary (my grandmother) - all born around the late 1890s/early 1900s, probably in Ballyjamesduff. Anne SMITH (SMYTH) was from Lavey, Barony of Upper Loughtee, County Cavan. Ann SMITH's father was James SMITH (SMYTH). He was born around 1820 and had died by the time his daughter Anne married Michael FAGAN in 1886. Any connections? Linda Brady Derbyshire, UK.
