This may be my first posting to this list. certainly the first for a long time, I have very little information but this is what I have managed to piece together. My gg grandfather was David Sheehan, born circa 1825 in Ireland.My gg grandmother Catherine Gorman was born 1823 also in Ireland. According to the 1861 census of Poplar all 5 of their children were born in Middlesex, but none of the births seem to have been registered.Catherine died in 1885, but David lasted until 1898 so I got a clue from the 1891 census, which states that he was born in Limerick. So now I need to try and track a marriage between 1843( when David would have been 18) and 1852 when their oldest daughter was born. I did a search on FreeBMD today and am sure they didn't marry in Britain. The family was Roman Catholic, any clues would be appreciated Regards Joe Austen in OZ

They were mostly buried in St.Mary's Cathedral Churchyard, or St. Munchin's Chuchyard.

I’ve been trying to piece together some of my heritage based on vague records from my father Doran Hughes. All dates and ages care approximate at best so there will be plenty of flexibility in researching. Kate Macterlagh I think lived some 160 years ago and was from the Limerick area. She was married to Bryan O’Doran from County Cork. I do not have any info on death dates or places. I only know that their son, Dan Doran lived in Canada with his wife Margaret Foley having at some point had a son John Doran who also lived in Canada with his wife Theresa O’Rielly. I know cthese are very vague bits of info but if anyone can guide me in the right direction I would really appreciate it. Thank You, Howard D.

Could somebody tell me where Anglicans would have been buried before 1855 please in Limerick City ?

Thank you, Jack. I should have added, that at this time, I am only interested in these specific counties in Ireland. Also, I encourage anyone who hasn't taken advantage of DNA testing for genealogy that FamilyTree DNA is having their annual promotional sale right now through Dec. 31st. Prices are very low. Family lore stated that our Grahams had come from Scotland and were descended from the famous Grahams there. However, I saw on a census record that my ggg-grandfather had said he was born in Ireland (or was of Irish descent). Years later DNA analysis showed we had a DNA 'signature' common to people from these counties, especially Hogans and O' Briens. This DNA signature is commonly known as Irish Haplogroup Type III. I would never have known this without the test.

Hello. I'm new to the list and am researching my GRAHAM family. Are there any descendants of Grahams from the Tipperary (already joined the list), Limerick, or Clare counties area here? Thomas Beall

You might also want to check on the Ancestry message boards and just do a search for the GRAHAM name. The County Limerick board is at - http://boards.ancestry.com/localities.britisles.ireland.lim.general/mb.ashx You should easily be able to find other boards of interest from there.

I just saw that Family Search has added Ireland Tithe Applotments to their List of Projects. Something Irish researchers might want to help with. http://indexing.familysearch.org/projects/viewProject.jsf?url=Ireland-TitheApplotmentBooks1824-1840/ProjectHelp1.html People named in Tithe Applotments are going to be rural, not City dwellers. We have some "TABs" on the Tipperary site done by Mary Heaphy http://www.igp-web.com/tipperary/cens_subs.htm and I believe Pat Connors has done quite a few. But, leaving aside that some are online, I am glad to see more being added for Ireland. Christina

Hi Carla, That graveyard only has records from 1855 onwards and they go by date, so it would be difficult to locate a family grave without a date.

Hi I was wondering if anyone could refer me to a website book or similar which details the presence of the British Army in Limerick. I am particularly looking for the period around 1890 to 1900. Many thanks Ros

Hi Ros If you Google "British Army in Limerick" some interesting sites come up including one about housing of such men.

When I visited the castle in Limerick city some five years ago I noticed that they had a display about the military. Perhaps an email to them might help. best wishes, Graham.

I went down there earlier, but left my note of the grave at home, typical, I found other O'Shaughnessy a few graves over from where I should have been looking. Will go back tomorrow and check properly.

Be sure you put a Subject in your emails. If the topic changes, please try to redo the Subject line so it is relevant. Thanks, Christina List Admin

Hi Sharon, Do you know if there are any lists for the tomb for the D'Arcy-Evans burials back around 1800-1870.

Hi, I am looking for someone in Limerick that can check out a plot for me in Mount St. Lawrence cemetery. I am trying to find out if a headstone was placed for my grandparents there. The plot is 69BA. The names are John O'Shaughnessy died 1953 and Bridget O'Shaugnessy ( nee Ryan ) died 1977. Any help would be appreciated. Chris
