Hi Karen, I am sticking my two-cents in uninvited with some information which may or may not be helpful to you. In the book "Irish Land Owners of 1876" of people owning one acre or more of land the following from Cork County are listed, which may be of help scaling your brick wall. Coughlan, Rev. A. L., Ballinglanna, Glamire, owned 66 acres, valued at 126 L (pounds) Coughlan, Rev. J. Cole, Mallow, 42 acres, 18 L 5 s (shillings) Coughlan, John, Mountain Common, Clonakilty, 7 acres, 4 L Coughlan, Joseph Boyle, Ballygarvan, Cork, 1,678 acres, 1,068 L 5 s Coughlan, Patrick, Mountain Common, Clonakilty, 5 acres, 3 L 5 s No listing for spelling Coughlin. Crowley, Cornelius, Bridge Street, Bandon, 79 acres, 40 L 10 s Crowley, John, Ballyluck, Clonakilty, 13 acres, 2 L Crowley, Laurence, Bandon, 6 acres, 10 L 5 s Since both sets of people are from the right area for your relatives, hopefully it will provide you with further leads. Good luck!

Thanks in advance. I'm looking for a Mary Coughlin, from Clonakilty, County Cork. She would have been 20 to 25 during those years. Also a David Crowley from (we think Bandon) County Cork, who could have been anywhere from 30 to 45 during those years as I have no clear DOB on him. They are husband and wife but I have nothing on them before they came to the States - one of my proverbial brick walls. I don't even know if they were married in the States or in Ireland. Would appreciate any help at all. > > Thanks again, Karen Crowley Roettele > > ==== IRL-KILKENNY Mailing List ==== > ***Join a mailing list with 24-7 ROLL CALLS*** > Rootsweb's first totally Irish Roll Calls mailing list... > http://lists.rootsweb.com/index/intl/IRL/IRELAND-ROLL-CALLS.html > > ============================== > To join Ancestry.com and access our 1.2 billion online genealogy records, go to: > http://www.ancestry.com/rd/redir.asp?targetid=571&sourceid=1237
