Hi... Patricia Farrell shared a photo of her ancestor only she is not sure which I have added the photo to the Photos page. If anyone knows who it is by all means, contact Patricia. Her email is on the website. And she is on this list. http://www.igp-web.com/IGPArchives/ire/kerry/photos.htm Thanks for sharing the photo. He is an Irishman. I can tell that much. :) Regards, Christina

A VERY SPECIAL IRISH BLESSING... This is beautiful. Wishing you a wonderful week and a Happy St Patrick's Day! http://www.andiesisle.com/ThisBlessingIsForYou.h tml

Jeanne Reilly has shared two photos of O'Connor relatives buried at Kilbannivane Burial Ground - Castleisland, County Kerry. I have also redone the military headstones so they have a link to the text from the main page of photos for each set as we are doing elsewhere. The military graves were about the first donations we had for the IGP Archives. To see the headstone page go to: http://www.igp-web.com/IGPArchives/ Click on KERRY and then Headstones. We love to add headstones. If you have anything to share, let me know. Regards, Christina

Not sure about access to all of these and details on what they contain. Seeing lots of academics names on the list, I venture to guess that these people aren't genealogists and though their project is praiseworthy, they need some coaching on what we would like to see. Ray Marshall in Minneapolis, where it is snowing. So there. You thought it was Spring already. http://www.dippam.ac.uk/ http://www.dippam.ac.uk/contact/ About the Project DIPPAM is an online virtual archive of documents and sources relating to the history of Ireland and its migration experience from the 18th to late 20th centures.

Belfast and its Rural Migration Hinterland, Paddy Fitzgerald EPPI: Enhanced British Parliamentary Papers on Ireland EPPI is a large database of 15,000 official publications relating to all aspects of Irish affairs during the period of the Union, including bills, reports, commisions of inquiry, and the published census reports. It is a rich source for the social history of Ireland, as well as for statistics relating to population, emigration and other subjects. DIPPAM will offer an enhanced and comprehensive version of the resource previously hosted by the University of Southampthon. IED: Irish Emigration Database The IED is a virtual library of emigration-related primary sources, principally letters to and from emigrants, compiled by the Centre for Migration Studies, Omagh. This extensive collection of more than 33,000 records is drawn from a number of collections, including the Public Record Office of Northern Ireland and many private donors, and is capable of expansion as new records become available. It covers a wide time period, but with a concentration on the period between c.1780 and c.1920. VMR: Voices of Migration and Return VMR comprises over 90 life-narrative interviews conducted with returned and non-returned migrants from Ulster (9-counties) gathered during the course of two studies on contemporary migration (2004-2008). The study participants represent a range of geographic origins within Ulster, class backgrounds and religious denominations.

http://www.iar.ie/Genealogy.html Family History & Genealogical Research Many of the collections listed on this portal will contain information of interest to genealogists and family historians. Items such as rental ledgers, wages and salaries books and employee records can often contain references to people whose lives have otherwise gone largely unrecorded. It must be borne in mind however that considerable time would have to be expanded in searching through these records to find any useful references, as they are often not indexed or accurately dated. Due to limited funding and resources for archival repositories in Ireland, it may not always be possible for staff in the repositories listed in this portal to answer family history queries or give guidance on how to begin a genealogical research. Luckily a number of institutions already offer very comprehensive guides which will aid any researcher with this type of query. The National Archives of Ireland www.nationalarchives.ie provides a Genealogy Service where members of the public can consult a professional genealogist about sources relating to their family history. This service is provided free of charge and is available to the public from Monday to Friday, 10.00–17.00. The Genealogy Service is intended primarily for first-time researchers and visitors but more experienced researchers are also welcome to use it. The website also has a comprehensive guide to using its records to research family history http://www.nationalarchives.ie/genealogy/beginning.html Importantly, online Census returns are also available at no charge via the National Archives web site http://www.nationalarchives.ie/genealogy/censusrtns.html The National Library of Ireland website has a very useful guide for anyone beginning a family history search. It is available to download at http://www.nli.ie/en/family-history-introduction.aspx An advisory service is also available free of charge to all personal callers to the Library who wish to research their family history in Ireland. For first time researchers this Service is a useful starting point, allowing them the opportunity to discuss their research with experienced Library staff, and ready access to important finding aids. More experienced family historians are also welcome to avail of the Service if they need assistance with on-going research. Both the National Archives of Ireland and the National Library of Ireland websites feature lists of professional genealogists willing to undertake paid research work. Details can be found at http://www.nationalarchives.ie/genealogy/researchers.html and http://www.nli.ie/en/commission-research.aspx Other useful sites include: The website of The Genealogical Society of Ireland http://www.familyhistory.ie also offers a series of very useful links for researching in Ireland. The Society of Archivists, Ireland maintains the website www.learnaboutarchives.ie designed to provide a practical and interesting online information service for the general public (but more especially educators and their students) on archival material and archive services in Ireland. It provides an excellent introduction to the rules and procedures in place when accessing and handling archival material. To research your family in their county of origin contact the local archive or local library directly. Contact details are available on this website or on www.learnaboutarchives.ie

The website www.iar.ie, launched today, allows the public to search a wide range of Irish archives online. Some of the collections featured include the Irish Film Archive, the Guinness family archives, archives from UCC’s Boole Library and a large number of city and county council archives. Brian McGee, archivist at the Cork City and County Archives, told TheJournal.ie that the Irish Archives Resource site links to wherever these archives are digitised and searchable online. However, it also carries detailed descriptions of what is in every archive listed and where it can be accessed physically, if the collection is not online. He said: For now, it is primarily a descriptive site but we see it as the first step on the ladder to digitising entire collections. For example, we have one collection that is 175 boxes’ worth of documents and it has not been possible to put them all up as yet. State-funded archiving in Ireland is a relatively recent phenomenon, only being properly established in the last 30 to 40 years. However, the IAR website brings together a large number of collections from around the country, preserved by a range of organisations. It includes records from current and defunct government and local government agencies, personal contributions, estate records, clubs, societies, trade unions, religious, cultural, sporting and political organisations. One personal archive included is that of Nancy McCarthy, a member of the Cork arts scene who had a romantic relationship with Frank O’Connor when they both worked with the Cork Drama League and later, a lifelong friendship. Her archive, donated to UCC Library by O’Connor’s wife Harriet O ’Donovan-Sheehy, who became executor of McCarthy’s estate, contains fascinating personal correspondence between McCarthy and a host of luminaries such as actors Cyril Cusack and Micheál Mac Liammóir, editor of the New Yorker William Maxwell and sculptor Seamus Murphy. The range of audio, video, written and aural testimony ranges from records of traditional trades, crafts and traditions that were practised in Ireland around 1850 to more contemporary material. Film buffs, for example, will be interested in production material harvested from Jim Sheridan’s Hell’s Kitchen International Ltd production company. The company is still going but some materials from films such as My Left Foot, The Field, Into the West and The Boxer were given to the Irish Film Archive following the closure of Hell’s Kitchen’s Dublin office in 2009. Brian McGee says one of his personal favourite archives referenced on the site is a recent collection of deeds on properties in Cork city dating back to the 16th and 17th centuries. These deeds were found lying in a skip in the Netherlands. Geneaologists will also find much helpful material can be accessed through the site’s guidance. McGee says: We would have lots from local government archives, for example documents from the workhouses’ board of guardians. The important thing about the site is that every collection on it is accessible and available to the public. The long-term hope is that it will one day all be digitised, and some archives are going in that direction already. Limerick city archives have been digitising a lot of their material recently.

I have just transcribed and uploaded additional Royal Irish Constabulary extractions for Kerry Natives. We previously had Sept. - Dec. 1852. We have added up to October 1853. If you are interested, you can see these at: http://www.igp-web.com/IGPArchives/ Pick KERRY from the table of counties. Then pick Military/Constabulary from the sub-headings. If you have someone here and would like the image, please write off list. Thanks, Christina [email protected] To submit a picture or obit or other document... http://www.genrecords.org/irfiles/

In researching my family history, I can trace the Corridon line down to Thomas Corridon  born 1708 and married to Margaret O'Donnell. The next Corridon I can identify is Philip Corridon (b: ?1610) who allegedly was the first Corridon in Co. Kerry. However, I am missing at least two generations of Corridons between Thomas and Philip. I know Philip had a daughter (Mary) and he must have had at least one son who would have been Thomas' grandfather. Can anyone help me or give me leads that I can investigate. Thanks. Charlie Corden

Just tried to get some information on the term links. This is what I turned up so far. "The British Golf Museum says that "links" are coastal strips of land between the beaches and the inland agricultural areas. This term, in its purest sense, applies specifically to seaside areas in Scotland. So "links land" is land where seaside transitions into farmland. Links land has sandy soil, making it unsuited for crops. Such land was often, in times past, thought to be worthless because it was not arable for crops" I am still not convinced that it would be a descriptive term in the 1840's!!

Paddy Knowing the area around Ballybunion I had thought about golf links but as the birth of Hanora Sullivan was probably in the 1840's I would think it would be much too early for the term links to be used. I could be completely wrong and I don't know the origins of the word links.

May I put in a caveat? The original marriage entry was written in Latin by a travelling French priest in Wisconsin USA. He could only write down what he was told by the groom or bride. There were three words in the address. The first was clearly Beall the last was Ireland; in between was what I read as Linckei, which I took as a Latinized plural of 'Links'. Many years ago when I was on holiday in North Kerry, I took my nieces and nephews to swim and play on the Shannon shore at Beale, typical 'links' terrain. There are golf links in the area but they are just south of Ballybunion.

Gleninchiquin is a townland between Kenmare and Lauragh - it's a beautiful park with a lovely waterfall, just a wonderful spot. The local priest, Fr.

Trish, I'm not having the problem. I had more hits spelling it Ballyfinane than Ballyfinnane.

Hi... Has anyone on the list heard if the IFHF will be adding Co. Kerry to their data base and when? I haven't heard anything about when we can expect these records to be available. Bev W

Trish There would be very few Catholic church records as far back as 1820. Between 1700 and 1829, it was illegal for priests to keep records; although some did, mostly in the towns. Some parish records don't start until the 1860s (Brosna 1868, where my people are from)according to Ryan. But Tralee goes back to 1772. Ray Where it is March in Minneapolis and he's hoping for Spring one of these months. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]]On Behalf Of Trish Jensen Sent: Wednesday, March 02, 2011 9:41 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [IRL-KERRY] Irish records Has any one been trying to use the www.churchrecords.irishgenealogy.ie site of late I can get nothing from it at all with dates in the 1820 Put in many names , have they taken off the early ones perhaps.??

Hi. Trish! I hope I understood your question. If not, I apologize. I found three Elizabeth Teahans born in the 1820s: 06 Oct. 1822 in Killarney; 07 June 1820 in Boulteens; and 05 Nov. 1827 in Ballyarkane. In addition, I found an Elizabeth born on 14 Dec. 1816 in Killorglin.
