This is the only other information I have on Bernard... I think Ellen might be his wife but can't confirm. Bernard & Ellen Tackney were witnesses at the baptism of James Dowd, son of Matthew Dowd and Bridget Coyle - at St. Michael's Church in Cootehill - November 3, 1842. ----- Original Message ----- From: "jean old" <old.jean@gmail.com> To: <irl-cavan@rootsweb.com> Sent: Friday, April 03, 2009 11:32 PM Subject: Re: [IRL-CAVAN] Tackney/Tackeny in Cootehill > Hi Kay > have you heard of Bernard Tackney is is related to Roseann > Regards jean > Ps is that name common ? > > On Sat, Apr 4, 2009 at 2:29 PM, Kay Stanton <kay-stanton@cfl.rr.com> > wrote: >

Ann, I have had some luck on the following site tracing my Gambles from Cavan Ireland who left Cavan in 1852. I know they were in Wellington County, Ontario in 1871, but thats it. It is not inexpensive but with your facts you will proably have some success. I have managed to establish births as early as 1827. I do not often post but I would like to ask for advice on an inexpensive way to have someone research records earlier than 1827. I have some basic name, date, religion, Griifiths evlauation, and land lease information but cannot quite put it all together. I suspect by the number of Gambles running around at that name time with ages and names the same that they were there at least a couple of generations earlier.

As far as I know, my Dixons were not Catholics. My grandmother (granddaughter of Ben Dixon) did not have a good word to say about Catholics (or Anglicans for that matter (I'm Anglican)) so I doubt the Dixons were Catholics. Would you have any other ideas of where to look?

Diane... Do you know of any records that exist prior to 1829? I have information from St. Michael's the Archangel in Cootehill but they only go back to 1829. I'm looking for some births around 1818 or so; one in Cootehill; one in County Meath.

I don't know much about Anglican records, but someone on the list should be able to help you. I believe there are copies of Church of Ireland records somewhere in Dublin, or you could get the address of nearest church by Googling Church of Ireland. Diane

Post your information, Ted, and people may be able to help you. Parish and religion are key, since civil records didn't start until 1864 (Protestant marriage records in 1845). If it's Knockbride (looks like that's where most Gambles were at the time of Griffith's), the RC records have been filmed back to 1835. Protestant records might go back further. Diane

The Knockbride RC parish register is on LDS film 0926133, item 3, covering years 1835-79. Should have Ellen's marriage, and also Catherine's birth if John and Ellen lived in Knockbride parish. Diane

If the Dixons were Catholic, films of the Cootehill (Drumgoon) RC records back to 1829 are at the Cavan Heritage Centre and the National Library of Ireland, and you'd have to pay to have a researcher check them. Since you have a date, the fee should be reasonable. The Irish Family History Foundation has a record of a Ben Dixon born in 1841 but apparently not in Cootehill. You'd have to pay 5 euros to view their record. Diane

I am seeking information on my GG-grandmother's CARROLL family. She was Ellen Carroll, born 1813 in Blackstep, Parrish of Knockbride, Co. Caven, Ireland. About 1838 she married John Duffy in Ireland and their first child, Catherine was born in Ireland in 1839. By 1840 (source: 1840 census) Ellen, husband John & Catherine were in Malone, Franklin Co. New York. Ellen died 8 october 1871 in Westville, Franklin Co. and is buried at St. Joseph's Cemetery in Malone. I have no information on Ellen's parents or siblings , although one of her daughter's godmother was Anne Carroll who may have been a relative. I'm hoping that someone may have information on Carroll's who were from Blackstep & also settled in the Franklin Co. New York area. Appreciate any direction as to where to direct my search.

Hello all Have not posted here much over the years,mainly just tended to lurk. But I would like some help & guidance now , if at all possible. The families I am working on & would be interested to know if anyone has any connections DALY from Lisnahederna CLARKE from Ardlow & Lisnahederna GAFFNEY from Moybologue CAROLAN from Ardlow & later Mullagh & Virginia LYNCH - Ballyamesduff for more recent times 1900's > O'REILLY - Virginia for more recent times 1900's > My husband has mentioned if my current health problems are resolved soon & that I am able to sit long enough in comfort in order to be able to fly that he will take me on my dream trip to Ireland including County Cavan. This trip certainly isn't 100% definite yet & may be a while off but I would be thrilled if it does happen. Can anyone tell me about any of the local research facilities that are available ? Are there any records of old burials ? Are any resources available locally to look at such as Church records,re baptisms,marriages or burials any thing else that could be of use ? Any details of landlords & the families that they rented their land to ? Exactly WHAT can I expect to find re records once I arrive in these various places that I have listed above ? Any other records you would suggest I check out online to find out more in the meantime before we maybe go there ? I am really looking for help & guidance for doing research both - online at home in Australia & the best way to prepare myself before a holiday to Cavan as well as what I could hope to find out once I get there ! I truly hope some listers will be able to be of some assistance. Thanks Colleen Australia cdunk@ozemail.com.au

Better to look at church records in the National Library in Dublin rather than going from church to church in Co. Cavan. Much more efficient use of your time. You can also see civil records at the General Registry Office in Dublin. Google both to learn more. Diane

Hi Karen, Both townlands Clontyduffy (Hart) and Clontyduffy (Nugent) are in the parish of Kilbride, county Cavan. They appear in Griffiths valuation circa 1855 with a complete list of residents, there are no Hart in that list - see http://griffiths.askaboutireland.ie/gv4/gv_place_search_form.php I suspect that there once was a family named HART who resided at or was the landord of Clontyduffy (Hart). Consider taking a look at the Tithe Applotment Books for the parish as they would list residents/landlords circa 1825. They are on LDS Films 256623 and 256624 See also http://www.sierratel.com/colinf/genuki/cav/Kilbride/ Cheers, Colin

Karen inquires: === And one of the entries is: Index Number to Electoral Divisions 524 Townlands and Towns Clontyduffy (Hart) Page 274 I need help please as I try to understand this. Here are my questions: 1. What is the meaning of the name Hart in parentheses? There only one other on the page in parentheses. It is immediately after the Clontyduffy (Hart) entry and it is: Index Number to Electoral Divisions 524 Townlands and Towns Clontyduffy (Nugent) Page 274 Does this possibly mean that there were two families in the town of Clontyduffy, one Hart and one Nugent? === Clontyduffy townland was apparently divided at the time of the Ordnance Survey in the first half of the 19th century. This has been done in many cases throughout the counties. One of them (Rowls) in N. Cork was divided into 6 townlands with different surnames added to each (and one large one was divided even further, into North and South versions [gr]). I have always assumed that the surname defined either the owner-family of the townland or, at least, the predominant family living there. If there was a specific rule regarding this, I'd appreciate hearing about it. These adjacent Clontyduffy townlands have a more-than half-mile common border, are in Kilbride civil parish in County Cavan, and also have "frontage" on the Co. Meath boundary. The village of Mount Nugent lies about two and a half miles to the north of the Clontyduffys, and Lough Sheelin is about the same distance, to the NW. I'll leave the remaining questions to others, as I don't do any genealogy and know little about the records as such. Pete ....................................................
