Whether or not Callaghan is a Donegal name is another question, but whenever you come across a surname in a county far from where that surname is common or is thought to have originated, there is a good chance that the individual was a member of the Royal Irish Constabulary. It was standard practice to assign new recruits to the force to a county as far from his home county as possible so that there could be no familial influence on the course of justice, nor threat of reprisal.

    1. Cork to Donegal
    2. Hi all, I recently took my first trip to Ireland. I was with my 3 sister and their spouses and did not get to do research. I did get a free couple hours up in Donegal however and knocked on the door in the tiny hamlet of Coolcross Clonmany looking for Callaghan descendents. The ones who are left there do not know much about the family history. One gentleman I spoke to however mentioned that Callaghan was not a Donegal name and family lore had it that the Callaghan's were from Cork originally and moved there by the British. Does anyone know when this would have happened and point me towards some sources for more information? Cheryl

    2. Hello again Barbara, No, I can't say for certain that LORE is a variation of LEARY, but I will check it out and let you know. In my research of LEARY on Ancestry.com & other research websites I thought I had seen it as a variation, so will have to go back and review later. Unfortunately I'm having a problem accessing a few websites due to some unexplained malfunction so will refer this info to a friend who may know. Will get back to you asap.

    1. Re: Bandon estates & papers
    2. Mary Simpson
    3. Many thanks for all information regarding research into Earl of Bandon's papers. I did not realise that the Dukes of Devonshire's estates went out that far, and the online indexes make fascinating reading, but they do not, in this case, apply. Also, whilst the Bandon Genealogical web-site is wonderful, my area just happens to fall a smidgeon outside it's area - I think that it's called Sod's Law......... But I definitely think that I will be checking out what the Cork Archives can offer. Again thank you to everyone for all your advice and help, Mary

    3. Also the Devonshire Estate records (Lismore Castle Papers) are held at the National Library in Dublin. A searchable index is online at http://www.nli.ie/pdfs/mss%20lists/129_Lismore.pdf They cover much of the land around Bandon, Innishannon, Enniskeane etc and go back into the 1600s in places. I spent many hours last year researching in these papers for the Bandon area website (and myself!) and they are a fascinating treasure trove. Regards, Patsy - New Zealand.

    1. Research etc etc...
    2. Mary Simpson
    3. Hello Brendan, you may very well have the reason for the loss of farm etc., the family went from leasing 130 acres which was taken up by the Old Man when he was 60, so he must have been farming it with his sons, amongst whom was my great grandfather, until he was 80 when he suddenly lost it all and ended his days owning only 5 acres, so something was going on. There were also house burnings, sons going off and leasing other farms with cousins in different parishes, and sons disappearing - abroad?? All happening during the turbulence of the Land Wars. We have all the details of the land from the Rate Books besides the Griffiths'. The point that I am making is that I discovered all this detail well after the death of my father and grandfather, and it all makes ' the family history ' different, and more complicated, than I had supposed it to be. Nothing surprising there, you may say, but I was using this example as a warning, if you like, to others to approach family history with an open mind, and to be prepared for the ( very ) unexpected. I could write a book..... Mary

    1. Re: How to research etc etc
    2. Hi Mary, The Land Commission was set up in early 1880's and granted 15 year leases to certain tenants, if you had a sitting tenant they refused the lease, your family may have been refused a lease. The Valuation Office have records from Griffiths on, in the Cancelled Land Books, they list the people who owned the land, tenants etc, they also list if a lease was granted in 1880's, you will find a blue stamp on the record.

    1. How to research etc etc
    2. Mary Simpson
    3. Dear Brendan Just read you excellent piece in the O' Donoghue journal, and wanted to say thanks for all your very good advice. And would just like to reiterate to everyone starting on this - please do as much groundwork ' at home ' as you possibly can, pester each and any relative possible for whatever info you can get hold of, you will need it! But treat it with caution, some family stuff is written by the fairies...... In my father's family, we knew EXACTLY - down to the very fields and lane - that they came from, and the family history was indoctrinated into us, but even so, it has been a long slog to find hard documented evidence, baptismal and marriage records etc., and they turned up some surprises! One of the ' family stories ' repeated over and over by parents, aunts and uncles etc., was of a dispossession, occurring in the early 1880s, which I now believe may have been part of the Land Wars in that part of Cork. Or even the end of a fixed lease, perhaps a Lease of Life or similar. But the family is not happy with that, dispossession being much more romantic. Only access to the Earl of Bandon's Estate Papers would sort this one out. I did find the advertisement for the land that my great grandfather purchased in early 1877 from the Representative Body of the Church of Ireland, and perhaps the details might be found in their archives - if they have survived..... Next stop is digging into the Tithe Applotment records - another visit to Dublin! And if anybody else complains about being charged for research - try a few hours in front of old, faded, almost indecipherable microfilm, to see what it does for your eyesight let alone your sanity - and as for old paper records....... And that is all AFTER you have found out where to do the digging! Keep up all the good work, Mary
