Irish World and American Industrial Liberator (New York, NY) Saturday, June 25, 1892; pg. 8; Issue 1,139; col F (Obituary) OBITUARY. CASEY -- Patrick Casey, an old-time citizen of Chicago, died at his home, 607 Jackson Boulevard, June 15. Patrick Casey was born in Ballovan, County Limerick, Ireland, in 1819, and with his parent, three brothers and three sisters, came to America in 1837. He, with his brothers, Michael, James and Edward, engaged in railroading and canal building on their arrival. After a short time in New York the brothers transferred their field of operations to New Jersey, and in 1840 the family moved to Chicago. They had a large contract to dredge the Chicago River, and Halsted street, south of the river, which was built by them, was first named Casey avenue. They built the Chicago and Galena Railroad and constructed fifteen miles of the Illinois Central from Urbana south. Mr. Casey was formerly a leading member of St. Patrick's Church, and more recently of St. Jarlath's. Of the four brothers, Michael, died in 1850; James is retired from business and lives at 705 Jackson Boulevard, and Edward is in the livery business. Mr. Casey leaves four sons -- Michael, aged 35; James, aged 25; Edward, aged 23, and Thomas, aged 21. He also leaves a widow and two daughters -- Catherine and Molly.
Kathy~ Don't assume the age of Baptism sponsors. There are many incidences both in Ireland and in the USA in the Catholic church where sponsors are in their early teens. Also, grandparents have also been sponsors. "Back in the day" they had to be practicing Catholics. However, I have been to two over the past few years where one of the godparent's was not Catholic. One MUST be Catholic but not necessarily the other, per our pastor. I had questioned him after the service. les wright <olgeta@bigpond.net.au> wrote: Hello Kathy, I will contact you further regarding the names you asked me to look at, I have a fair bit of information for you.

I wrote the IFHF and said I would have spent more if I could have cross referenced the last names of the bride and the groom - otherwise it was like playing the slots in Vegas. They responded that they are considering that option.

HI Tom, The only thing I can add to your inquiry is my gr gr gr Grandmother, Mary Slattery, married James Quaid in the D'arcy mansion house, Knockaderry, 1808. Mary being the daughter of Miss D'arcy, no known first name, and Michael "Buck" Slattery. Miss D'arcy was the grand neice of Conyers D"Arcy. Hope this helps.

Limerick; Reeves of Charleville; Boles of Cork Hello List I'm researching the Boles of Moyge, co. Cork one of whom, Elizabeth Boles, married James D'Arcy of Knockaderry House in 1738. They had at least two sons, a second James D'Arcy and a Boles D'Arcy who married Catherine Boles of Moyge in 1767. I don't know the line of descent from there but by the 1830's the house was in the Evans family. The Boles entered into the house's story again though when the daughter of John Boles Reeves of Belfort near Charleville married Thomas D'Arcy Evans of Knockaderry. The generations through these times are all names different combinations of these family names: Boles D'Arcy, Boles Reeves, Boles D'Arcy Reeves, John Boles Reeves, Thomas D'Arcy Evans etc. I could really use some help figuring out these people. Any small contribution would be appreciated.

It was also verbally stated to my grandmother that the place they came from had about 2 hundred people and there were stones there similar to Stonehenge As regards your hint regarding the name Cornelius and his son and etc were also called that here in NZ by g/uncle was actually called Con and Young Con to distinguish the 3 generations of them living under the same roof. The family were all Catholics as far as I know and Family folklore states that at some time past their originals were Cullinane and/or O'Cullinane Regards Elaine Griffith's Valuations: http://www.failteromhat.com/griffiths.php ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to IRL-LIMERICK-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message

NOTES: One portion of this cemetery is in Brooklyn with the other portion of it being in Queens. In 1852 the Common Council of NYC passed a law prohibiting any more burials in Brooklyn/Manhattan--so based on the date of death this person is likely buried in the QUEENS portion of this cemetery. Most of the burials in the Brooklyn/Manhattan portion of the cemetery were of poor Irish children under the age of 7. The very first Shanahan in my family line to be born on USA soil [Patrick Joseph Shanahan 17 Mar 1862-16 Aug 1862] is buried in the Queens portion of the cemetery. Kathy Rhodes
