    1. [IRL-CAVAN] Cavan Genealogy Research centre-Fees
    2. Murray Bell
    3. The Cavan research centre has a baptism record that I am interested in purchasing. The cost for a copy of the record is 20 Euros. Can someone advise me of the best way to pay for this. Can I send them a personal check for the equivalent in US$ or should I send them a money order or bank draft in Euros. If someone out there has some experience in purchasing items from the centre, I would appreciate receiving their advice. thanks Murray Bell

    1. [IRL-CAVAN] McCarthy/McKernan 1865 Marriage found!
    2. Dear List Readers, I just had to let you know that it looks like the marriage of Charles Edward Delacy McCARTHY to Elizabeth McKERNAN has been found. Meg Greenwood <scotquester@barnet.net> located the data in the LDS Film #101474 - 1865 Marriages in Ireland, Vol. 5, page 824. They were married in Skibberen, Co Cork. I want to thank Meg for her work on my behalf and tell you all that help is available when you least expect it from the nicest and kindest and most generous people who belong to these lists. If you want to do the research for yourself, Meg sent the following tips: Go to www.familysearch.org and click on the link to the Family History Library Catalog. Use the Keyword search and enter Ireland. Select the proper one from the list [its the first selection] then when the long list of topics arises, scroll down to the bottom, you have to get the next batch of topics which will include "Civil Registration". Click on that topic only, not the ones with any indexes or catalogues. Then select the Marriages link that contains 1866. There is another link that has Births containing 1867. Within each of these topics, keep going through the pages until your year arises and find the correct volume number. I've double checked, these films are correct. Usually you can confirm the content of an LDS film by entering that film number into a Film/Fiche searchbox, but this is a series of a few hundred films, the individual content of one film is not available on such a search, you'll only get the huge series of films and you have to keep scrolling to find your film number among the masses. You'll also see what Irish films are available to order - there are lots of them, the list is just so buried in the LDS catalog that few even know of the existence of these film series. I've ordered a boatload of them over the past 4 years.....your Skibberen events were in the Index films. Thanks so much, Meg! Judy Martin <commjet@aol.com>

    1. [IRL-CAVAN] Anglo Celt - Cavan Execution - May 22, 1856
    2. Kay Stanton
    3. For Colin... (best I could do...) "The Anglo Celt" Cavan; Thursday, May 22, 1856 EXECUTION AT CAVAN On Friday last James MURPHY and Thomas DUNN, who had been convicted at the late Special Commission, the former of having been one of the actual assassins of Miss Hinds at Tubberlion on the 12th October last, and the latter of having incited ___(?), were hanged in front of the county gaol. The day was delightfully fine, but the people of the surrounding districts did not take occasion from this to be present in any considerable numbers. The Roman Catholic clergymen had, on the previous Sunday, generally advised their flocks to remain at home, and spend a few moments in prayer for the repose of the souls of the unhappy men, a course which they pronounced much better for all parties than any other which could be adopted. At ten o'clock, therefore, there was hardly any stir in the town; but between that hour and twelve the roads leading from Butlersbridge, Kilmore, Ballyjamesduff and Ballyhaise were rather densely crowded with persons flocking to the scene of the terrible drama that was about to be enacted. And, when twelve o'clock had come, the Huzzars, who had been parading the streets for some time previously, having gone over to the gaol numbered some 700 or 800 souls. There were a few aged persons present; adults ___________(?) numerous, the assemb! lage being ______________(?) The latter, we are ashamed to add, bearing about them all the appearances of respectability, in their _______(?), their carriage, their drss. It was a sad sight to see parasols and veils, bonnets and mantillas of rally a fashionable dscription in requisition for such an occasion. Something exceedingly morbid there must hve been in the dispositions of the wearers, and one might not hesitate to express a firm _________(?) that those who were present in the circumstances were there very little to their own credit. The depot of the Cavan militia, with a company of the Monaghans, were ranged from the Presbyterian Meeting House to the Parnham Garden; two other companies of the last named regiment were drawn up from Clemenger's bridge to the Police Barrack's garden; a company of the 8th Huzzars, mounted, were placed in three columns at the end of Church lane, and 180 policemen were distributed in various ways along the river, and at the different accesses to the town. During the day, however, there was not the least necessity for the intervention of any of them, for there was no breech of the peace, no rush that would involve the least danger. At an early hour in the morning the Rev. Thomas MULVANEY, Catholic Curate of this parish and Chaplain to the gaol, celebrated mass there, at which both the convicts assisted, communicating as they had done on the two previous days. Mass was also celebrated by the Rev. John M'ENROE, and reverently heard by the unfortunate men. After the mass the convicts, who had not seen each other from the day of the trial, were brought together by mutual request, when they kissed most affectionately, and expressed a full forgiveness of all wrongs, real or imaginary, which either had sustained, or was supposed to have sustained, at the hands of the other. They expressed an entire willingness to die, offering the pain and the ignominy of their death, by way of atonement for their sins, and hoping everything from the mercy of their God. As for MURPHY he resigned himself to his fate from the day upon which sentence was passed, and professed himself utterly disinclined to take any trouble in the way of petitions to the Executive for a commutation. He declared that he had lived long enough, and busied himself only about the concerns of his soul. He suffered much from bad health, and so far was he gone to consumption, that were his execution to take place three weeks later, the hangman could have had no person in him upon who to officiate. Dunn was more buoyed up with hopes of life; the fact that he was not charged with any actual participation in the murder, and perhaps the movements for a writ of error, tending to excite in him such a feeling; but still he kept death before him as a thing probably, if not certain, and prepared himself for it. As he remarked himself the day before his execution, he was glad that he had had such hopes, as they left his mind more undepressed, and thus enabled him to attend with more composure to the religious duties which suggested themselves or were pointed out by his able and most indefatigable directors. At one o'clock precisely the pressroom door opened, and the hangman drew in the rope which he adjusted round the neck of MURPHY, ho appeared dressed completely in white, and with gloves of the same colour. He came forward, attended by the Rev. Thomas MULVANY, with a composed step, and kneeled for some moments in prayer; then, getting up, the cap was pulled over his eyes, and he was placed upon the scaffold by the executioner, who, returning, drew the bolt, and the body was left hanging. MURPHY hardly made a struggle; there were a few shrugs of the shoulders, but in a moment even those ceased to take place, and all was over with him. It is worthy of being mentioned that a loud cry was raised, when Murphy made his appearance, a cry which could easily be heard at the distance of a mile; Dunn heard it in his cell, where the Rev. John M'ENROE was offering spiritual consolation to him, and exclaimed, "There goes poor James. May the Lord have mercy on him." Up to this ti! me he had been left under the impression that he should be himself the first executed, but when he learned the innocent deception, he only felt grateful for the kindness which dictated it as it was intended to keep him from knowing and grieving in the sufferings of the other. That the cry, spoken of, was one of pity must have been abundantly clear to everyone whom it reached and as far (?) it was calculated to prove that the spectators, however much they abhorred the crime for which MURPHY suffered, could not forget that it was a fallen man they saw before them, brought forth in the prime of life, and when everything was looking glorious under the brightening influence of a Summer's sun, consigned to a most ignominious death. But there were exceptions to those who were impressed with a feeling so generous. One man exclaimed, as the drop fell, "You'll never kill another Hinds!" a second was heard saying at the same moment, "Pop goes the weasel!" and a body of persons who s! tood along the Farnham Road, laughing and leering, taunted a most respected Roman Catholic gentleman who was driving by at the time to, "look up if he dared" thinking doubtless that the sight to which they exulted would deeply pain him, and forgetting that it was a spectacle of suffering humanity they saw before them, not an occasion of Protestant triumph or Catholic mortification. The body was left hanging for forty five minutes, after the lapse of which it was cut down and carried inside the gaol for interment by three prisoners, called out for the purpose. MURPHY spoke not a word in confession or denial of his guilt, nor, indeed, upon any other subject beyond those which he spoke with the ministers of his church who attended him, and this most probably was the cause, why the great majority of the bystanders left after he fell to ­­­­_____(?) when Dunn came to be executed the place was nearly quite(sp) in possession of the police and military. Shortly before two o'clock the executioner went to the cell and commenced to dress and ­­________(?) DUNN, who kissed each article as it was presented to him, in acknowledgement that he accepted those instruments and equipage of death with a cheerful resignation. When going from the cell to the press room, accompanied by Mr. M'ENROE, he was rather inducing that reverend gentleman to be courageous thus encouraged by him, and, having arrived at the press room, he kissed the rope, when it was being placed round his neck, as he had done to the articles of clothing, which he had to appear in, and which, besides the cap, consisted in a brown overdress and white gloves. Simultaneous with his appearance at the door leading to the scaffold was his being placed on the drop, which gave way immediately, leaving his body suspended. DUNN appeared to suffer even less than MURPHY, and this was owing to the fact that he got a greater length of rope, and had, therefore, further to fa! ll. He seemed to have been killed at once, and the presence of blood from his mouth and ears in the cap, after he had been cut down, would go to show that immediate suffocation took place. Like MURPHY, DUNN was completely silent, and no such cry was raised upon his appearance, indeed, as was said, there were not as many present to join in it. The body remained suspended for forty minutes, and was then given to his sister, who was present ready to convey it to its last resting place. No hearse could be procured in town, those, who usually supply such vehicles, being unable or unwilling to do so on that occasion, so the coffin was placed on a car and brought off in the direction of the graveyard, accompanied by the Hussars, who returned almost immediately and a considerable number of the townspeople, as well as by the Rev. Mr. MULVANY. The Rev. John O'REILLY, President, and the Hon. P. MAGINNIS, Professor of the Kilmore Academy, assisted the Messrs. MULVANEYand M'ENROE, in offering spiritual encouragement to the convicts, and ________________________, (?) Ralph HARMAN, Esq. sub sheriff, and Mr. GALLOGHY, the Governor of the Gaol were also present. By DUNN's own direction, the procession moved by Ardlegherin order to avoid the occurrence of any tumults in Ballyconnell, where a fair was held that day, and on Saturday it was buried in a peaceful and orderly manner. Many of the most respectable shopkeepers in the town had their doors closed until after the execution; in many of the private houses also, which looked towards the gaol, the window blinds were drawn and the shutters closed over; everything so far as the respectable and intelligent portion of the community was concerned, giving reason to believe that the morbid taste, which would lead to the inspection of such exhibitions, was fast passing away. There was nothing to mark that evening in town beyond the presence of a greater number of strangers in the streets. The public houses were only the more full; the laugh and jest only the more prevalent, and the least vigilant must have observed that the execution was not well over, when it was practically forgotten. It remains to add that the hangman that was to be, renounced the exercise of his function on the evening before the execution, holding out for higher terms; but he did not succeed in obtaining them, for the services of another volunteer were called on and rendered efficiently as well as willingly.

    3. I was interested in your message about "miller" Brady, as there is a "mill" and "Brady" connection in my family. Charles BRADY was my great-grandfather. He was born in about 1875, in County Cavan - possibly Garryross, in the Parish of Castlerahan. He married Elizabeth LEE 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 father 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. I also noticed that there was a FAGAN interest in your family. As noted above, my grandfather John was married to Mary FEGAN and I have a little bit more information on that side of the family if you're interested. Regards, Linda Brady Derbyshire, UK.

    1. [IRL-CAVAN] ANGLO-CELT - JULY 21, 1848
    2. ANGLO-CELT JULY 21, 1848 THE POOR LAW.--The first annual report of the New Irish Poor Law Commission has just been published. It shows that pauperism has steadily increased under the out-door relief system. Early in last February the number of persons in receipt of out-door relief in 100 unions was 455,456, and on the 8th of April the number so relieved in the same unions had increased to 638,141. In addition to the paupers receiving out-door relief, there were 140,546 inmates in the workhouses at the date of the report, and thus upwards of 800,000 persons were daily relieved at the charge of the poor-rate in the month of March and the beginning of April; but this is not all; 201,427 children were also maintained by the British Association under the superintendence of the poor-law inspectors, so that the entire number of persons gratuitously provided with daily sustenance in Ireland amounted, in round numbers, to 1,000,000 or about one-eighth of the entire population... _____________________________________________________________ CORONER'S INQUEST On Tuesday, the 18th instant, an inquest (adjourned from the preceding day) was held by John MACFADIN, Esq., of Cootehill, one of the coroners of this county, and a respectable jury, at the house of Mr. Thomas CONNOR of Glasleck "near Shircock", to inquire into the cause of the death of Rose CONNOR, aged 10 years, daughter of Mr. Thomas CONNOR aforesaid, who died on the 16th instant, from the effect of injuries inflicted on her person, by being thrown down and passed over by a cart, on the evening of the 10th instant. It appeared that three men, from the neighbourhood of Carrickmacross--namely, Patrick MURPHY, Edward HANLON, and John M'ENALLY, each driving a horse and cart, left the town of Bailieboro together on Monday the 10th inst., accompanied by a fourth person named Patrick GALLOGLY, who drove an ass and cart, and after coming more than 3 miles from the latter town, on their way homewards, they began to drive furiously along the road, leaving GALLOGLY, who was unable to keep up with them, behind; and on passing Glassleck they came in collision with the above-named Rose CONNOR, threw her down on the road side, and drove one or more of the carts over her, inflicting severe injuries upon her person, from the effects of which she died on the 16th instant. Her mother stated that deceased left the house on the evening of Monday the 10th instant in as good health as ever she was, about 5 o'clock in the evening, and that she went out with a piece of bread to her brother (aged 12 years) who was herding cows in the townland of Glassleck. She did not see deceased afterwards, until she saw her in Mr. James MARTIN's after receiving the injury, where she remained for two days, after which she was carried home. When she (deceased) came home, she told her mother that she went to turn their geese off the road, and that a horse and cart drove over her, inflicting severe injuries on her person. She did not enquire whether the drivers had reins on the horses or not, but she told her they were driving furiously at the time, and that they drove over her body. She allowed she did rise herself after receiving the injury, but that her breasts and belly were greatly hurt. She was sensible up to the time of her death, except that she had occasional ravings. Patt GALLOGLY sworn--Did not see the carts cross the child, but he saw them dashing on the road before him; was along with MURPHY, HANLON, and M'ENALLY leaving the market, and he kept up with them for about three miles-and-a-half; went on before him; left his sight, and were so far before him that he could not hear the noise of their carts; could not tell whose cart went over her, but MURPHY's cart was foremost when they passed him; the three carts were in a row after each other when they passed him, and they went on so while they were in his view. In reply to the Foreman, he said he thought they had a couple of glasses in, but they were not so drunk as not to be able to mind the horses and themselves; the carts had high boxes on, and the drivers were sitting in the carts crosswise; M'ENALLY's cart was hindmost then, but he after- wards got into the middle; it was about a mile from where the child was hurt; one Patt BURNS sat along with M'ENALLY in his cart; on coming up to where the child was hurt, he saw James MARTIN, who called to him, and he stopped until MARTIN came up to him, when they saw the little girl torn and tattered; she was sitting at the time on the side of the road--on the left-hand side as one would go from Bailieborough to Carrickmacross; she was not able to speak, being partially insensible when he came up to her. Michael CONNOR, aged twelve years, brother to deceased, stated that he was herding cattle on the day his sister met with the accident; she came out to him with a bit of bread about four or five o'clock in the evening of that day; they saw carts driving furiously up the road, and his sister went down to turn their geese off the road for fear of their being killed by their carts; the horses were trotting hard, and his sister asked him if she would turn the geese, and he said she might if she liked; two of the carts were in a breast, and the third was closely up to them; does not know which of them drove over her first; the cart that knocked her down drove over her, and the third cart passed over her also; the two foremost drivers did not look behind them, but the third looked behind him after he passed; none of them stopped; the horses were galloping at this time; his sister told him that she must go home, as two of the carts passed over her, and he told her to not cry and that he would soon go home with her. Simon HALFPENNY sworn--Was about 100 perches off, and saw the drivers for about a quarter of a mile; the little girl crossed the road when they were within about fifteen or twenty perches of her; when they came within ten perches of her M'ENALLY (if that was his name) was striving to get foremost; the little girl at this time was standing on the ditch of the road (a low little ditch with the back of it to the road), and from some motive, whether to turn, the geese or to leave the way of the horses could not say; and before she got in on the gravel of the road she was knocked down by the horse's nose or knee, and the cart passed over her. Patt BRADY, one of the jurors, deposed to the fact of HANLON, one of the parties, having admitted to himself on Tuesday evening, the 8th instant, that M'ENALLY's cart also crossed her on the road.. After a few minutes deliberation, the jury unanimously agreed to the following Verdict: "We find that Rose CONNOR, deceased, died on the 16th instant from the effect of a horse and cart passing over her body on the 10th July, 1848, accidentally, and we are of opinion that Pat MURPHY, Edward HANLON, and John M'ENALLY were very culpable in driving so furiously on the public road at the time of the accident, whereby they came in collision with the deceased." The coroner, in the presence of friends of the parties by whom the poor girl came by her death, lectured them very severely upon their misconduct, and pointed out to them how narrowly they escaped from being placed before the bar of justice, on a charge of manslaughter. He said they were now in a position to be sued for pecuniary damages, to satisfy, by any means in their power to repair them, the wounded feelings of the parents of the deceased, whom their act, accidentally though it be, had sent to a premature grave. He was certain, if the parties had any conscience, that their own feelings were not to be envied to them, and he concluded by observing that in almost every case where accidents occur in this neighbourhood similar to the present lamentable one, the parties implicated were invariably from the county Monaghan--a fact which did not speak well for the general morality of its people. Mr. CONNOR is a very respectable man, and a more amiable child than the deceased could not possibly be found. This heartrending occurrence has plunged into deep distress a highly respectable family and a large circle of friends. ====================================================== MEATH ASSIZES--Trim July 12 GRAND JURY--Anthony Strong HESSEY, Foreman; Lord KILLEEN, John A.

I am very grateful for your postings to the list - I research Donaldson Co Donegal and I was fortunate to get a family scrapbook back to 1894 with Donaldson BDMs Many connections to the following counties:- Cavan, Meath, Westmeath, Monaghan and Louth I am not familiar with these counties. As your postings are cross county and I have found the following already:- KELLS UNION Co Meath 24th Jan 1852. Richard ROTHWELL, Esq., in the chair John DALY, Isaac ROUNDTREE ====================== As names on these postings will not appear unless all of the Archives are searched I wondered if you had a surname list please?

    2. Heather Hunter
    3. I have Harriet Love married Cosby Bannon born Mt Nugent Co Cavan - child Georgina Bannon married Isaac Rountree born Curraghtown Moynalty Kells Co Meath From: Pam <1paso@thegrid.net> Subject: LOVE/CLARK, Bailieborough Date: Fri, 16 Jul 1999 16:07:11 -0700 My 3X Great Grandparents, Samuel LOVE and Sarah CLARK obtained a "church transfer letter' from the "Associate Congregation of Bailieboro" in 1801. They didn't emigrate until 1817, however, and may have moved down to Co. Clare sometime between 1801 and 1817. They brought seven children from Ireland and settled in Delaware Co., New York where they had two more. Samuel was born about 1776 and Sarah was born about 1780, both in Ireland, probably in Co. Cavan. Is anyone researching the LOVE's of Co. Cavan? Pam in Calif. ===== Heather Webmaster ________________________________________________________________________ Yahoo!
