There is a Marriage of Patrick Hanley in 1857 and a Marriage of Mary Connors in 1857, both in Co. Tipperary. But unknown if married to one another. There is a Birth record of William 1864 in Tipperary, but Anna in 1867 in Limerick & Roscommon. Hanley / Hanly is a highly used name in mid-Ireland. The IFHF is free to use, just register.

Author: ljaywright14 Surnames: HANLEY/HANLY Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.britisles.ireland.may.general/7855/mb.ashx Message Board Post: My great grandmother was Agnes Hanley, born c.1862, somewhere in Roscommon. Her parents were Patrick Hanley and Mary Connor/Connolly. Agnes married an Englishman in Rhode Island in 1884 and then moved to Birmingham and then London to raise their 10 children. I know of one sister, Annie Maria born c.1868 and of one brother, William, born in 1866 in Salmons Lane, Ballyleague/Cloontuskert. There is a record for William's birth, naming parents as Patrick Hanley and Mary Connor. Unfortunately, living relatives in Rhode Island were unable to supply new information regarding the Hanleys in Roscommon. I would appreciate any help you are able to offer perhaps either as possible descendants of Patrick and Mary, with any knowledge of relevant cemetery transcriptions in the area or with any other ideas as to how to further the search. Thanks for taking the time to consider this request. Ljay Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

In answer to your question; based on the bith date of the oldest child, the refeenced marriage must have been near 1780 to 1785 or thereabouts. The oldest child, John Duncan, was born "about" 1874, though I do not know where. John's family lived in Drnuganaugh, Parish of Killdecommauge, Co. Mayo at least into the 1830s - and likey until his death in 1847. Dave Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

They're in date order. LDS also has copies of many of the actual detailed birth records for the cert numbers included in the indexes. The birth records include the mother's maiden name too. Have you gotten your father's civil birth cert? Since you have his birth date, birthplace and parents names you can order it from the General Register Office http://www.groireland.ie That should confirm his mother's maiden name. There was a very high mortality rate for infants in those times and it's possible there were earlier children who might have died. As I mentioned the Irish civil registration marriage records indexes microfilms are also available on order through your nearest LDS Family History Centre in date order. If you find the marriage entry in the indexes, you can copy the information from the index and use it to request the actual marriage record from the General Register Office http://www.groireland.ie The 1901 online Mayo census doesn't contain complete information that's in the microfilm census records. You can order the census microfilm records through your nearest LDS Family History Centre to view the additional detail in the census records for Kilgellia, Attymass. The 1911 Irish census has also been relased and you can likewise order that through your nearest LDS Family History Centre.

Church parish records would be the possible source for baptismal records for them if they were all baptised in Attymass civil parish. However, Attymass Roman Catholic parish records don't go back before 1875, see: http://www.ireland.com/ancestor/fuses/rcparishmaps/index.cfm?fuseaction=showidrecords&CityCounty=Mayo&parish=Attymass&churchid=118 There aren't any surviving census records before 1901. The only possible source to find out what Thomas and Anne's fathers' names were is their marriage record. Mothers names weren't included. If they were married after 1864 there may or may not be a civil marriage record for them. You'd need to order the Irish civil registration marriage index microfilms through your nearest LDS Family History Centre and search for the marriage in the records. The records are all in date order. Without Anne's maiden name and with no idea when the marriage took place, they would be difficult to identify from the marriage indexes. Not all marriages were even included in the civil marriage records so there's no way to know whether or not it was without knowing the marriage date and her maiden name as a minimum amount of information. You can search their son Patrick's civil and church records in the US to see if they include his mother's maiden name. Have you searched the civil birth records for all of Thomas and Anne's children to find out what child was born first? Considering the children's ages in the 1901 census and Thomas and Anne's ages, there must have been children born earlier who weren't still at home when the census was enumerated. That might help give you an idea when the marriage might have taken place. Their civil death records in Ireland won't include either parents names or birthplaces.

Hi Lorraine, If Michael Flaherty and Norah Ford married in the US their civil and church marriage record there may include Norah's parents names. The 1900 US census (online) will include the number of years they were married and when they emigrated to the US. You don't mention if their children were born in the US or in Ireland. The reference to Annaghdown as their birthplace in Co. Galway probably refers to the parish rather than to the townland itself. Annaghdown isn't really big enough to be called a village. It's more of a townland. See: http://www.tuam-guide.com/annaghdown.htm If you look at the Ireland Townland Database http://www.seanruad.com and search County Galway you'll see Annaghdown townland is about 700 acres. The west side of the parish is on Lough Corrib while the east side is near the road from Headford to Tuam and isn't on the Lough. The parish itself includes the following townlands: Addergoole, Annagh East, Annagh West, Annaghdown, Ardgaineen, Aucloggeen, Ballylee, Balrobuck Beg, Balrobuck More, Barranny, Barravilla, Baunmore, Biggera Beg, Biggera More, Bolinsheen, Bunatober, Bunnahevelly Beg, Bunnahevelly More Bunoghanaun,Caherlea,Cahermorris,Carheeny,Carraghy,Carrowbeg North, Carrowbeg South, Carrownrooaun, Cartron, Castlecreevy, Castlequarter, Cloonagh, Cloonboo, Cloonleenaun, Cluidrevagh, Corbally, Corrandrum, Corrandulla, Coteenty, Cregduff, Cregg, Drumbaun, Drumgriffin, Gardenham or Garrymore, Garrymore or Gardenham, Glebe, Glenrevagh, Gortroe, Grange, Illaunaneel, Illaunaneel West, Illaunaveetry, Kilcahill, Kilgill Lisheenanoran, Mace, Muckrush, Mullaghadrum, Nineacres Park, Rabbit Island, Racoona, Rinnaharney, Shanbally, Shankill, Slievefin, Tomnahulla Tonagarraun, Tonamace, Turloughgarve, Walsh's Island and Woodpark. The whole parish today has about 750 people so it's a very rural and sparsely inhabited area. Back when your ancestors were born was before the Famine (1845-50) and subsequent emigration so there were substantially more people then. Here's a link to a description of the parish in Lewis Topographical Dictionary in 1837 and you'll see then the population then was over 6,000 people. http://www.libraryireland.com/topog/a.php Annaghdown Parish records are available on microfilm on order through your nearest LDS Family History Centre in the US and you can search the parish records for the baptismal records for Nora and Michael. Here's a link to the information about Annaghdown parish with the years covered in the records and the LDS microfilm number: http://www.ireland.com/ancestor/fuses/rcparishmaps/index.cfm?fuseaction=showidrecords&CityCounty=Galway&CityCounty=East%20Galway&parish=Annaghdown&churchid=1041 You should be aware that the surnames Flaherty and Ford/e were very common ones so you may find many entries for events for both surnames. That doesn't necessarily mean all the entries are the same family. There was a property valuation done in Ireland to impose taxes called Griffiths Valuation and it was done in County Galway in 1855. That was after the Famine (1845-50) so isn't complete for all the people who were in the County before the Famine. It lists the following Ford/es and Flaherty entries in Annaghdown civil parish, these names were responsible for paying the rent: Surname First Name Townland Parish County Ford Michael Balrobuckmore Annaghdown Galway Ford Michael Barrany Annaghdown Galway Ford Michael Lisheenanoran Annaghdown Galway Ford Michael Shankill Annaghdown Galway Ford Michael Balrobuckbeg Annaghdown Galway Ford Michael Annagh West Annaghdown Galway Ford Mary Lisheenanoran Annaghdown Galway Ford Mary Tonamace Annaghdown Galway Ford Michael Annagh West Annaghdown Galway Ford Patrick Coteenty Annaghdown Galway Ford Patrick Lisheenanoran Annaghdown Galway Ford William Lisheenanoran Annaghdown Galway Ford William Muckrush Annaghdown Galway Ford William Shankill Annaghdown Galway Ford William Coteenty Annaghdown Galway Ford William Billybeg & Rabbitt Islands Annaghdown Galway Ford Patrick Tonagarraun Annaghdown Galway Ford Thomas Grange Annaghdown Galway Ford William Annagh West Annaghdown Galway Ford Mary Garrymore,Gardenham Annaghdown Galway Ford Martin Garrymore,Gardenham Annaghdown Galway Ford James Shankill Annaghdown Galway Ford Jeremiah Balrobuckbeg Annaghdown Galway Ford John Annagh West Annaghdown Galway Ford James Rinnaharney Annaghdown Galway Ford James Ballylee Annaghdown Galway Ford Bridget Lisheenanoran Annaghdown Galway Ford Honoria Tonamace Annaghdown Galway Ford James Annaghdown Annaghdown Galway Ford John Baunmore Annaghdown Galway Ford John Corrandulla Annaghdown Galway Ford John, Jr. Lisheenanoran Annaghdown Galway Ford John, Sr. Lisheenanoran Annaghdown Galway Ford Martin Annagh West Annaghdown Galway Ford John Tonamace Annaghdown Galway Ford John Shanbally Annaghdown Galway Ford John Drumgriffin Annaghdown Galway Ford John Grange Annaghdown Galway Ford John Grange Annaghdown Galway Ford Anne Annagh West Annaghdown Galway Flaherty: Flaherty Michael Grange Annaghdown Galway Flaherty Michael Carrownrooaun Annaghdown Galway Flaherty Michael, Jr. Grange Annaghdown Galway Flaherty Patrick Annagh East Annaghdown Galway Flaherty Thomas Grange Annaghdown Galway Flaherty Patrick Lisheenanoran Annaghdown Galway Flaherty Mary Annagh East Annaghdown Galway Flaherty Martin Annaghdown Annaghdown Galway Flaherty John Coteenty Annaghdown Galway Flaherty John Corrandulla Annaghdown Galway Flaherty John Grange Annaghdown Galway Flaherty Margaret Annagh West Annaghdown Galway Flaherty Margaret Kilgill Annaghdown Galway Flaherty Hugh Annagh West Annaghdown Galway Oceanstrands --- On Tue, 6/17/08, Lorraine Conroy <timlorr@embarqmail.com> wrote: Michael Flaherty born 1840 died 1911 in Bklyn, buried in > Holy Cross, his > wife Honora Ford/e born about 1840 d 1901 buried in HC > ,Bklyn.
