Hello Folks, My Gt.Gt.Grandfather William Bury lived at 30 North Strand from 1852 until 1863. My third Cousin has sent me a graphic of the damage done by the German bombing of Dublin in 1941 and the caption to the pic.says it shows damage to numbers 30 to 35. Does any Dublin native know if number 30 was reduced to rubble or was it left standing. Thanks and a Happy New Year to All Message sent using MelbPC WebMail Server

This is my first attempt at research in Ireland and I am sorry that my existing information is so vague! Theophilus Samuel Patrick MONTGOMERY was born in Dublin c 1812/13 according to the 1851 census of Bethnal Green, London. At some stage he married Mary Jane BRISTOW from Coleraine. Their daughter Maria was born in Coleraine c 1840/41. The family moved to Bethnal Green some time before their daughter Florence was born there in 1844/45. I would appreciate advice on how to attempt to discover details of Theophilus' baptism and marriage, please. Adrian Yorkshire

I have some information the above that I have done for a client who has said that it is OK to pass it on to anyone doing this research. So please contact me off line if you are interested. Regards from Valerie in sunny Sydney

Many thanks for these web sites...will enjoy looking at them after the Xmas rush.

My great grandfather, Owen (Eugene) McCarroll (c. 1840 � 1895), came from the townland of Corkill, (or Corkhill as many of the recorded records indicate) in the parish of Clogher, County Tyrone. He was baptised and buried in the Eskragh R.C. chapel's graveyard. He was married in the Fintona R.C. Church which is in the parish of Donacavey. Owen went by that name and not Eugene - probably because that was his father�s name. Owen was the son of Eugene and Catherine Carroll who were farmers, and was born about 1840 in Donacavey. He married my great grandmother (registered as Eugene, but signed the register as Owen), Catherine McCusker, on 25 June 1867 in Donacavey. My great grandmother was from the townland of Augharonan, in Co. Tyrone, which I believe also is in Donacavey. Little is known of my great grandmother's family but we can make out a few facts about Catherine and how she existed. Catherine and Owen had a number of children: Ellen, b. 1871 - 1917, married Andrew Bogan; Patrick (also known as The Yank), b. 1873 - ? (He appears to have been buried in the family plot at Eskragh); Thomas, b. 1875 - ? married to Catherine (Kitty) Daly (Daley?) and emigrated to USA, perhaps from Newtownsaville; Owen, b. 1877 - ?, who married Brigid Conroy in Beragh, and lived in Curr. My grandfather was next: Michael Joseph (Mickey), b. 1879 � 1924. Then there were: Jane, b. 1871; and Hugh, b. 1883, both of whom lived in Corkill with their mother Catherine until her death in 1916. The family farm house in Corkill was there when I first visited but it was removed about November 1982, and I understand that the property is possibly owned by Devine family. The resting place is the family plot in the R.C. Church Graveyard in Eskragh (Eskra). Catherine McCusker's father was Patrick and she was born circa 1846 � 1851; she married Owen at "full age." (McCosker may be a variant of the name.) But, as is the case with most old Irish records, there is a discrepancy for the 1911 census lists herself as a 60 yr old widow while the 1901 census listed Catherine as a 45 year old widow. She had a possible sibling: John McCusker of Legmaghery, but little is known of him. Descendants of Owen and Catherine include the children of Andrew Bogan (Ellen) who still are in the Fintona area, while some have moved on to Dublin. The Donnelly�s live in Curr, Beragh; and they are related to Owen McCarroll and Brigid Conroy. The Coady family, who owe their lineage to Ellen and Andrew Bogan, still reside in the Dublin area, while Catherine �Kitty� Coady had a vegetable store in Irish Town before she passed away. She had three children: Mary, John and Patrick. My grandmother Agnes Bridget, or �Aggie,� was born around 1888 in San Francisco, California, USA to John Amos Gaffigan and Maggie Crennan. She was described in the San Francisco Call Index upon her death as being Mary Agnes (Aggie) Bridget Crennan Carroll. She remembered the great earthquake and fire of 1906. She left for Ireland when she reached majority, but we do not know if she accompanied Mickey McCarroll on that journey. But instead of being married in the Fintona area, where he chose to settle as a publican after residing in Omagh at least until 1914, they were wed on June 25, 1912, at St. Patrick�s Cathedral in Dundalk, County Louth. Mickey, or Michael Joseph, became a publican/auctioneer on Main Street in Fintona (the pub lately owned by Mr. Francis. McAtee). Michael and Agnes had a number of children, including my father: Michael Joseph, 25 March 1914; Patrick Eugene, b. 1915 who passed away after three days; Mary Catherine (who became Maura when she migrated to the USA), 1917 and passed away in 2004; Thomas Leo, b. 1918; Bernadette Anthony, b. 1919; and, Kevin Barry, b. 1921. Michael Joseph Carroll Sr. had migrated to California around 1899 to join his brothers in San Francisco: Thomas and Patrick, who were naturalized as USA citizen. In 1904 he gained citizenship as an American. After sometime he then returned to the Fintona area to get married and begin a family in 1912. There is some speculation that he was ill in California and returned to Ireland because of that reason, and had recovered. There was some gossip that he purchased the public house in Fintona from his mother's estate or from some relative of the McCuskers. And then there were stories that the family was to return to San Francisco when he became ill and passed away. My great grandfather was John Amos Gaffigan and he married Maggie Crennan. John had left Glasgow with his mother Mary and older brother Thomas in 1867 upon the death of his father Patrick. Although both boys were born in Scotland the parents were originally from Ireland. Maggie Crennan was originally from Queens County but had left for Northern California in the 1820s. We know that John came to Ireland in 1914, probably to see his daughter Agnes and son Michael Joseph who was born that year in Omagh. My grandfather, Mickey McCarroll, was to pass away at age 44 in Omagh. It after they had sold the pub that my grandmother packed up the children later that year and returned to San Francisco. Their voyage was on the S.S. Cameronia, a Lloyd�s mail ship which left from the Clyde in Scotland and picked up passengers at Moville, near Londonderry. There is more, but that gives you, the reader, the flavor of the kinship of Owen and Catherine McCarroll. Any help you can give in sorting this thing out would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, Jim Carroll. j.j.carroll@earthlink.net

Hi List, am hoping someone might be able to help me find the death of a Richard Coyne of Dublin. The time frame would be 1885 (when he is listed on son's marriage certificate) and 1888 (when he is listed as dead on daughter's marriage certificate. The only other information I have is that he was living at 1 Lower Gardiners Street Dublin and occupation has been listed as engineer (on son's certificate) and porter (as listed on daughter's certificate). Thank you. Pat

The 1860 US census for Smithfield Rhode Island USA lists two families from Ireland on the same page: ...William BOWE born about 1825 in Ireland and what appears to be some of his relatives, Catherine (born IRL abt 1815), Julia (born IRL abt 1800), and Hannah (born IRL abt 1800. This surname could be BOWES or BOUGH. ...Stephen and Elizabeth OWENS both born about 1820 in IRL and their children: Stephen, Thomas, James, and Peter all born in IRL and William born in RI. When James OWENS died his death certificate indicated he was born in Dublin. Question: Does anyone have any information on Stephen and Elizabeth OWENS probably married in Dublin about 1840 or a bit earlier? Thanks for the help, Charlie King gg grandson of William Bowe of Ireland and Smithfield RI ________________________________________________________________________ Try Juno Platinum for Free!

Hi all! Since I didn't get any direct answers to my question of whether the Library does lookups for specific references, I took the bold step of asking them directly! Had hesitated doing that as I imagine they are very busy, but I was delighted to get an almost immediate response telling me if I gave them the details they'd check it for me! A couple of hours later they wrote back with the rest of the details on the record [unfortunately parents were not listed - boo hoo:-(] Now, I hesitate in posting this as I don't want to be responsible for them being bombarded with requests, but if you have proper reference from their database and have only simple request [no long list!] you might also be pleasantly surprised with their response! I'd also suggest you report results to the list so that we can be considerate in spreading out requests over time [i.e. if you know someone else has made request recently perhaps you could hold off for a bit:-)] Hope this helps! cheers Aggi-Rose

Hi Aggi-Rose I suppose with such a large population, plus abundant records available, it is hard for people in the US to realise that there are heaps of people in the rest of the world who also want to know about their forebears but don't have the resources available that Americans have. I wish I could hop on a plane and, in a couple of hours, be in Ireland. Probably like us Aussies travelling 'over the pond' (Tasman Sea) to New Zealand. I wonder if they realise that some people do not the resources to travel in search of information. Just as an interesting tidbit, I read somewhere that Australia has the largest population of Irish and Irish-descended people outside Ireland. Thanks veery much for your tip re the Irish newspapers archives. I am hunting for NOLAN, RATH and McHENRY so, with a bit of luck, I might find something. I suspect that a couple of them might have come here via US during or just after Gold Rush days as I cannot find how or where they came into Oz except by swimming all the way!! Thanks very much for your kind offer of help. I will keep it in mind. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you and yours Kind regards Irene Rees on the Gold Coast http://www.tribalpages.com/tribes/Brent44 -------Original Message------- From: Aggi-Rose Reddin Date: 12/08/06 11:28:37 PM To: ivrbjr@bigpond.net.au Subject: Re: [IRL-DUBLIN-CITY] Dublin City Library Archives Hi Irene! Yes, so did I!! Not sure if this might be relevant, but have you checked www.irishnewspaperarchives.com ? I found what may turn out to be my biggest lead yet through an article I found there that was in a 1776 newspaper! That's actually why I posted my question about the Dublin Libraries Archives, as it turns out there are RC records from the 1700s that still exist and there are 2 Reddins listed that are of particular interest!

There are only 2 existing census's available as they were destroyed in a fire in 1922. The 1901 and 1911 are available but not online. You have to go to Dublin library or go to your nearest LDS and see if they can get the census for you. Mark (all Irish roots and so hard to find!!)

Hello I'm new to this list, having just discovered my George H LOCKING, born Leeds, Yorks in 1866, travelling to New York in 1931 as a resident of Dublin. He was a wool merchant. I wonder if anyone can point me to any online directories of Dublin, which might include my George. I am very ignorant about Irish records, having no Irish ancestry, and would be glad for any help with finding aids - are there censuses, for example? Cheers, Liz Davies
