After visiting Mallow, Kilshannig and Dublin Reg office, I was able to see my GGGreat Grandfather, Cornelius Callaghan's (O'Callaghan) death Certificate. He was born Glantane abt 1823 and left Ireland to return in 1870 with his wife Elizabeth and four children. Cornelius died in August 1873 and was living across Mallow bridge in Ballydaheen. His place of Death was The Cartigans which I have been informed is a house in Baldaheen. I have two questions ? 1. Are there any Callaghan's (O'Callaghan) researchers out there with ancestors from Glantane, Kilshannig Nr Mallow. 2. Does anyone know of The Cartigans house, its history, purpose abt 1873.

Hi Richard, I have an O'Callaghan from Kilshannig, my 5 X Great Grandmother & 6 X Great Grandfather. On the 11th September 1736 at the C of I Church at Kilshannig, Thomazin O'Callaghan [who was Roman Catholic & the daughter of Anthony O'Callaghan of Dromore ] married Thomas Vowell [C of I] . Thomas died in 1749 & Thomazin married again to Edward O'Dell. I came across a will abstract dated 24 Feb 1729 which referred to Anthony Callaghan of Dromore & Daniel Callaghan, his sixth son. In 1731 Anthony Callaghan transfers lands at Kilvaleton to Georg Foot, husband of Judith Callaghan. In 1766 a list of "Popish" inhabitants of Mallow includes Anthony Callaghan. It seems quite possible that your Cornelius is descendant of Anthony Callaghan. Thomazin's Granddaughter Susan VOWELL married Rev Michael Henry BECHER & lived at Clyda House at Kilshannig from 1818-1850. >From Jenny http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~becher/index.htm ----- Original Message ----- From: "richard" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, June 14, 2009 8:10 PM Subject: Callaghan, O'Callaghan from Glantane Nr Mallow Co Cork > After visiting Mallow, Kilshannig and Dublin Reg office, I was able to see > my GGGreat Grandfather, Cornelius Callaghan's (O'Callaghan) death > Certificate. > He was born Glantane abt 1823 and left Ireland to return in 1870 with his > wife Elizabeth and four children.
