I am trying to find the family or anyone else who is researching Anne KEANE born 4/11/1810 at Limerick IRL to John and Ann KEANE. Anne 'married' Alexander Robinson and somehow found her way to Wolvenham, England, charged with stealing and was sent with her son William to Australia, arriving 1834. cheers Maureen

Hi All I'm wondering if its possible to find a death record or an obituary for a Catherine (Katherine-Kate) LANGAN I have her either born or christened in Askeaton June 10 1858. She was a child when she died. The LANGAN'S as far as I know so far came to the United States about 1876. Thats as close of a time line as I can get. Thanks...and now I'm off to work.. Cris

Jan Another scenario is that she was provided for in their marriage settlement. These often provided a life rent charge for the widow.

Try the LDS (Mormon Research rooms). Even here in New Zealand many LDS research rooms have the indexes in their libraries. If not you may be able to order them. Good Hunting.

I forgot to ask where Ballinlena is located. Could it be near Knockfierna? Thanks MARIE

Can anyone tell me where Cappanihane is located and the proximity to Castletown- Conyers? Also, how would one go about finding the family of a person living in County Limerick in the 1800-1860 time period? I have looked and I have decided I just don't know where to look. Help please.

I think the same as Virginia. My grandfather's will was not proven until after his wife died 10 years later Elaine NZ

Thank you! : ) I ha no idea there was a center here. I had asked and was told the nearest one was in Oakland CA. Yosemite Ave, is near where I work. Im so excited I might have to plat hookey from work one day...LOL, wow this is great, Cris

Hi there No, I haven't forgotten you. Unfortunately I am visiting friends and do not have access to my computer or notes for a few weeks. I will definitely get in touch shortly. What is your email address or do you prefer I contact you through irl-limerick ? Talk soon Barbara-Ann egan.egan@gmail.com

Kathy My experience is that will were generally proved quite quickly after the death. There is, however, a list of wills in the National Archives that were never proved. So it is possible. What happened more often was the will would be proved quickly and there would be a grant of administration some time (years) later because executors had died before completing the administration of the will. For example; Michael ADAMS, of Ballycullane whose will dated 3 July 1801 and proved 27 May 1802 had a grant of administration dated 1833. -- Regards Nick /Home/ http://members.iinet.net.au/~nickred/ <http://members.iinet.net.au/%7Enickred/> /Sites managed/ http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~registryofdeeds/index.html <http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/%7Eregistryofdeeds/index.html> http://www.igrsoc.org/index.htm http://members.iinet.net.au/~nickred/majuratennis/ <http://members.iinet.net.au/%7Enickred/majuratennis/>

When you do searches make sure that you use the ADVANCED search option and run two searches--one putting the surname you are searching for in the Subject Line and another search putting the surname you are searching for in the BODY Line (note: not at the same time - run two separate searches!). This way, despite the manner in which the posting was made, you WILL be able to find (hopefully) what you are looking for. (NEVER say NEVER - lol!) The link to use to search ONLY the postings made to this particular mailing list (IRL-LIMERICK) is: http://archiver.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/search?path=IRL-LIMERICK You have two options - KEYWORD OR ADVANCED CLICK on the ADVANCED TAB and do as I described above. It is not always easy to find things in the archives so I hope this "TIP" helps someone! We should probably all try to do better with our changing of subject lines, etc. but you should also be aware that changing subject lines is problematice too because changes to subject line often cause you not to be able to read complete "threads" to see how a certain subject progressed--and this can be majorly annoying when you've found a promising line that might pertain to your research only to "lose" it because the posters "changed" the subject line. So, again in this case this is where it comes in handy to use the ADVANCED search options. Happy (and successful!) Hunting!
