Hello everyone, I would appreciate some help with a Co. Cavan connection that I am investigating. In 1789 James JORDAN / SHERIDAN was sentenced in Dubin to 7 years transportation for stealing. He was sent to Newfoundland on the 'Duke of Leinster' later that year, only to be sent back to Dublin, via Portsmouth. From Dublin he was sent to New South Wales on the 'Queen' in 1791. James is included on a list of prisoners in Newfoundland. His place of birth is given as Cornegall, Co. Cavan. A search of Griffith's Valuations has confused me as to the location of Cornegall. Does anyone on this list know this location or can anyone suggest what the correct name might be? Also, does anyone have any Jordan or Sheridan connections in this area? James stuck by the name Jordan in Australia, but I'm still unsure as to whether his name was actually Jordan or Sheridan. Until now there are older members of the family who pronounce the name 'Jerden'. Any locals who have come across similar pronunciation-based confusion with these names? Thanks very much for your help, Christopher
