Correct. We do not claim copyright over anything submitted. The copyright states that the copyright remains with the submitter. A photo may have been taken anywhere, but the person should have been born in Ireland and the county in Ireland must be known. If they were born in the US then I believe a photo should be submitted to the USGenWeb Archives. Obits should name the Irish county or location where the person was from originally. Or - that family resides in such and such a place in Ireland. I have seen probate records in the US name people still in Ireland. And where they lived. We are trying to give clues and to help people find the elusive connections back to Ireland./ Hope that clarifies things. Christina Teri Rehurek wrote: > Christina I have some questions.

I have an equally sad story on family photos.... When my mum was young she remembered seeing photos of who would have been my great great grandmother hanging on a wall at a great aunt's. When this aunt died the photos were sent up to another Great Aunt in Cairns. My mum was talking to her aunt and mentioned these photos she remembered and asked if she knew what happened to them. Mum's aunt told her that she had no interest in the photos and didn't think anyone else would so she dug a big hole on her cane farm and buried them! ARGH!

MARRINANS - A very unusual surname. I'm not sure it's Irish BUT here goes -: "Houses of Clare", by Hugh W.L. Weir, (C) 1986, Ballinakella Press, Whitegate, Co. Clare , page 232: ROCKVIEW HOUSE, CARREN - View of Burren Rocks (Eng.) -?; Associated families, etc. - Macnamara, Roche, Marrinan. Townland - Cahergrillaun (Carran) Location - N of the Kilcorney Road, 3 km W of Carran Present Condition - House - Standing, uninhabited; - Demesne - A quantity of mature trees, including beech. A few walls standing. Features - Originally taller and thatched, Rockview is now a small, one story, four bay, gable-ended nineteenth century lodge, with chimney stacks in each gable, facing south with magnificent views down a fertile valley. There are three large four-pane sash windows in front, and a lower unlit front door. There is a small garden, and the house is approached from the road by a short straight drive. History - Standing in 1841, Rockview House and its ninety acre farm was leased to Captain Francis Macnamara in 1855. The estate comprised the whole of Cahergrillaun townland. The house was reconstructed by the Marrinan family in around 1950. \\ It seems your family name is rare and was in possession of this house in 1950. Thus there must be people in the area, possibly relatives, who would either know or remember your relatives. From the entry in "Houses of Clare" it's not certain that there was a relationship to the earlier occupants, but quite possibly there was. Burren Rocks (unknown to me - can't find on map) but probably in Burren area) is not near Kilkee, but in Co. Clare nothing is VERY far away ! Check both areas-: Tithe Applotment Books, Griffith's Evaliuation, etc, for MARRINAN; also Letter to Editor of local newspapers, briefly giving all known details, might well bring replies - 'Clare Champion'. Do Internet search. Hope this helps. Len Keane (O'Cathain) In a message dated 8/1/2011 11:08:51 A.M.

If there is onyone on this list who might be related to any of the undermentioned family please get in touch as I would dearly love to hear from you. Kind regards, Mary (Hooley) Mizzi in sunny and pleasant wintery weather in North Queensland Australia. Searching for any information on the following. Martin HOOLEY, b.abt 1811 ..not sure about this. and his son Thomas HOOLEY birth in 1835 somewhere in Ireland. or any HOOLEYS in Co Clare. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Christina Hunt" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]>; "irl-clare" <[email protected]>; "LIMERICK" <[email protected]>; <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, August 01, 2011 3:32 AM Subject: [IRL-CLARE] Photos of Ancestors Wanted! >I put out a call on a few Irish lists for Ancestor photos to put in the > IGP Archives this month.

I even have more.  A nasty aunt said that whatever I did not know would not hurt me.   She is the one who wrote to her sister and whose letter was shown to my mother.  This sister really liked my mother.  She wrote that my name was "rather heathensh."  My mother was born in Missouri and came from highly educated and highly intelligent people.  This creep said my mother was Hawaiian meaning she was trash and black.   >From what I understand, she thought she had some kind of claim on my father, as he Should have made sure she came to the States.  My father had no money!!!!   My own father would not talk about his family except to his brother as per reply letters from his brother he did not destroy.  He would not keep family papers or letters.   All so very sad!!!!!!  Yes, these are sad things to say about one's own family, but they are the ones who caused it.  My father sent them moeny that should have been used by his legal family.  My mother who was Always cold sent her good heavy coat to them.  She sent them other things.  So, I guess we were resented for doing so.  The nice sister told my mother and wrote in a letter I still have not to send them anything as they have more than we do.  More sadness.   Alanna --- On Mon, 8/1/11, Jackie Hoare <[email protected]> wrote:   I have an equally sad story on family photos....

Good point Alanna Many of our ancestor photos were lost when my mom had scarlet fever... Her family had just moved and they were in boxes in her room. At the time it was believed that the germs were spread on paper among other ways so all the paper in her room was burned. Our Irish branches along with the English up in smoke!

      What a marvelous idea!!  Will upload what we have to  the Clare, Mayo, Waterford & Wexford lists.  A few months ago, I received a thank you for putting the picture of my Gran's brother on our Ancestry tree.  It seems that the family of his wife, in Chicago, were seeking data on her family and their spouses.  The tree with picture came up.  The original was above the hearth in their home in Mayo.  He is holding the bridle with his favorite race horse.  Perhaps someone out there have pictures of some of our ancestors.       We have one of my husband's great grandmother, done about 1873 in Dublin by a photographer LENNON.  How this obviously elderly lady got to Dublin from Kilmore in County Wexford to have it taken is mystery.  The story is that it was the practice of many parents, knowing they and their children would never see one another again, would have this done.  Just the cost of a train or coach up to Dublin and then the picture would have been expensive, but it was done.  We have this lovely photo of Mary nee MURPHY CLARKE to pass along to future generations.

A group of this family have been researching for many years and would love to connect with families who have similar interests from County Limerick and County Clare. We have a website at http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~spearin/Index.html and also a facebook group at http://www.facebook.com/groups/219630734727688?ap=1 We would love any input that anyone can give.

Hello Declan I have seen posts from you concerning Spearing in New york, I am wondering if our Spearin family might be related? If memory serves me correctly you have a Spearing married to a Barron ( or the other way around ). Can you tell me anything about that family? Margaret
