One man's impressions.... Chris http://www.news.com.au/travel/story/0,23483,20729135-27977,00.html Irish whispers By Murray Waldren Article from: The Australian <http://www.theaustralian.news.com.au/?from=ni_story> EVEN if you're not among the one in three Australians said to have Irish ancestry, a trip to Ireland may well seem like a homecoming. You'll certainly recognise cultural, political and psychological echoes. More important, perhaps, you'll notice and enjoy intriguing differences. There's never a sense of the same ole, same ole about visiting Ireland, but what never changes is the countrywide warmth of welcome. The Irish are people who've made greeting and meeting a folk art; they've been doing it for thousands of years, of course, although not all guests have been as welcome as is the modern traveller. But then relatively few of us, these days, are after a bit of pillage and plunder. see website for the continuation....

Hi, I have been going through the archives of this mailing list and have seen a few links to the Coffey/Coffee family and was wondering if anyone could help me to place mine. My great great great grandmother was Eliza Coffey. She married Edward Perry and they had 9 children in Liscannor County Clare. Eliza died in 1865 and her obituary (thanks Declan) says that she was the daughter of Francis Coffee, land surveyor. Eliza would have been born about 1822. I suspect her mother may have been Jane Coffey. Jane holds the same lands in Griffiths that Francis Coffee does in the tithe books. Jane died in 1875 and the informant is Edward Perry, although no relationship is given. I have found Francis Coffey's obituary and he died in 1844, at what appears to be a young age. I have also come across several maps in the NLI that he did and reference to the fact that he was the valuer for Ennistymon Union. On this list a few years ago, someone said that they had a "Francis COFFEY born c.1790 married Jane O'DWYER of Kilrush granddaughter of the famous Jenny BUTLER whose 6 daughters married KENNY, SHANNON, MAHON, KELLY, O'DWYER, O'GORMAN". I wonder if these could be my Francis and Jane? I hope that someone can help me to piece all of this information together!

Dear Brenda I too commissioned research from the Clare Heritage Centre which I will send you if you can give me a postal address. In relation to James Hickey in Griffith's, an extract from my Clare Heritage Report states he "shared 34 acres 2 roods and 20 perches of land with Edmund Ryan and Patrick Donohue. The valuation of this land amounted to 37 pounds and ten shillings suggesting it was high quality agricultural land." There were more Hickeys in the earlier Tithes survey. I would think James was a brother or a cousin of my Michael. The Donohue link is interesting there. There could well be a relationship. I will dig out my records at the weekend and have a closer look but godparents called McNamara and Malone feature commonly. Edmund Ryan was godfather to Mary Hickey (1842), sister of my great grandmother. I suspect Michael Hickey may have died before Griffith's survey as a Margaret Coffey was leasing a house valued at 10 shillings from a James Coffey in the townland of Brickhill West, next to Ballymorris.

Dear Catherine Thank you for responding. My great grandmother was Honora Donnellan before she married Michael O'Donoghue. My sister engaged the Clare Heritage Centre Corofin to do research some years ago and we have the record of many Baptisms from the Church in Cratloe. There is a close connection with the Coffey family. A James Hickey appears in the Griffith Valuation of Rateable Property 1855 in the parish of Kilfintinan in Ballymorris so perhaps he is a relative of yours.

Hi, Crossing the Shannon Estuary between Clare and Kerry was very frequent in the 1800s. ( by both rowing boats and larger ones). Disappeared with the advent of motor transport. You will find all the same surnamres on both sides. The same is true with the Fergus Estuary. Declan

Dear Brenda I do not have any information about the O'Donaghue family but my great grandmother, Sarah Hickey, was born in Ballymorris townland, Civil Parish of Kilfintinan, County Clare, and baptised at Cratloe Parish Church on 25 March 1844. Her father was Michael Hickey and her mother was Margaret Coffee. I would be interested in exchanging information.

Debbie, See http://www.heritagecouncil.ie/publications/genealogical/summary.htm (another section of the document that Sharon just flagged). Pádraig (the Paddy that was) -----Original Message----- From: irl-clare-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:irl-clare-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Debbie Fall Sent: 08 November 2006 04:14 To: IRL-CLARE@rootsweb.com Subject: [IRL-CLARE] A thought-Nat'l. Heritage Ctr? With lots of informed people on this list I was wondering if anyone knows if a National Heritage Center has ever been proposed. By this I mean that ONE heritage center would be open for commissioned searches. Records from all the centers would be placed on one large database within one building. This would cut costs in keeping heritage centers up and running and it might even bring down the cost of a search. I was just wondering if this has ever been considered. I realize that approval rights might not be easy from sources such as churches. I had heard that LDS was trying to get approval from all sources that their films are from to allow them to put the records on their family search site. Not sure how that is progressing, but I would assume it would be a very difficult job to accomplish and long time to complete IF ever. Thanks for any feed back....

I ahve O'Donohue in my family but I don't have very much info. My great grandfather, Patrick Haren (born around 1847) married Honorah Donohue. I know they lived in Letterkelly, Inagh parish. Also, my grandfather, Michael Haren is listed as a nephew living with an O'Donohue family in Ballyleas, also Inagh parish.

Dear Cathy, In Co Clare a Scanlon married a Doody. I think that this Doody was in the area of Lissycasey or Cappanagera. But this Scanlon was Not related to my Scanlan's! I have received a paper mail request to give the writer some info about my Scanlan's, but do to my personal life, I have not replied that we are not his Scanlon's. I will have to bring the letter to my computer area to give you the details in a few days. If you go to the LDS search area, there is a posting of a Doody. I think that this poster is the one or the relative of the paper writer. Alanna cathy carley <cathy_carley@yahoo.com.au> wrote: I'm researching my Direct Line of DOODY in Ireland. Family Talk is they may have originated in Co Clare around Kilrush area then Moved to Co Kerry. My ggrandfather was JOHN THOMAS DOODY, Born circa 1860, And Sister MARY JOSEPHINE born 1864...Their Father was THOMAS DOODY. JOHN and MARY came here to Australia in 1882. The Family thought they were from Co Clare, But in a newspaper Listing for John DOODYS marriage here in 1888, said he was second son of THOMAS DOODY of Listowel Co Kerry, Maybe they moved from Clare to Kerry. Also does anyone have access to Irish records that they can check please a Baptism for Mary Josephine Doody in 1864, Catholic, Father Thomas. And Does anyone know please origin of DOODY Name.. Thank you Regards from Australia Cathy:)
