    1. Omey-CLOHERTY
    2. Hello, Omey Civil Parish, town of Attigoddaun: CLOHERTY, COSGROVE, COTTINGHAM, SCHOFIELD, TIERNEY (Griffith's Valuation) Would I be correct in assuming that since I found the above names, all related in some way to my grandfather, Christopher CLOHERTY, in the town of Attigoddaun, Omey Civil Parish that I have found the birth place of my grandfather, Christopher CLOHERTY. If that is the case I would appreciate if someone could tell me the name of the Roman Catholic parish as I would love to obtain records. Christopher CLOHERTY ca. 1846 Co. Galway- d. -1913 in Phila. According to Griffith's Valuation there were only 38 CLOHERTY households in all of Ireland, 37 in Galway and 1 in Limerick. Parents: unknown siblings: unknown immigrated: ca 1864 married Mary COSGROVE Oct. 1869 in Wilmington, Delaware . Christopher and Mary had 13 children. Mary COSGROVE (b. ca 1849 in Ireland d. 1924 in Phila.) parents: Stephen and Mary (Cottingham) Cosgrove known siblings: Thomas (b. ca 1855 in Ireland d. 1926 in Phila) John (b. ca. 1850 in Ireland - d. 1924 in Phila.) aunt: Margaret COTTINGHAM (b. ca 1834 in Ireland - d. 1907 in Phila.) parents: John and Mary (Schofield) Cottingham Tierney: all I know is that my parents went to a Tierney wedding who was a cousins of my father. I will be going to Ireland in late August, a surprise gift from my two daughters who will be traveling with me. I would love to be able to find the graveyard where my family is buried. I would appreciate any information, help, direction in locating records. Perhaps someone could tell me where the civil parish of Omey is located. Marguerite
