    1. Fwd: New CD-ROMs
    2. Christina Hunt
    3. I haven't seen these - so this is not an endorsement, but with Christmas around the corner, some of you may be trying to find suggestions as to what your family can get you. <G> Regards, Christina Dear Eneclann CD-ROM user, We thought you would like to know that we have just released three new CD-ROMs. These include the long awaited collected works of Brian J. Cantwell (Memorials of the Dead), the first eight volumes of The Irish Genealogist by the Irish Genealogical Research Society from 1937 to 1993, and the 1798 Rebellion Claimants and Surrenders Lists. To find out more about these CD-ROMs, please come to: http://www.eneclann.ie/pub-cat.htm Further information also appears below: Title: Brian J. Cantwell’s Memorials of the Dead: The Collected Works ISBN 1 905118 02 3 Ref: CD14 Price: €69.90 or US$69.95 Description: For the first time, the works of one of Ireland’s most eminent researchers of gravestone inscriptions have been collected into one publication. Over a twenty-five year period, 1966-1990, Brian J. Cantwell visited over 500 sites and recorded many thousands of memorials (with dates up to 1900). His work includes all of Wexford and Wicklow, large parts of South County Dublin, much of West Clare, as well as parts of Cork, Kildare, Galway and Sligo. This work has now been compiled and edited by his son, Ian Cantwell. This CD-ROM includes: · Memorials from 546 sites · Over 4,000 pages of transcripts · 24,392 memorials · The names of 67,297 people · Extensive original indexes · Introductory Biography, indexes and statistical analysis by Ian Cantwell This CD-ROM features copies of the original typescript pages of Brian’s work as well as some of his other published works in an easily searchable format. Also included are original photographs taken by Brian, as well as some of his private correspondences and an excellent guide he wrote for the R.S.A.I. on transcribing gravestone inscriptions. Title: The Irish Genealogist, Vols. 1-8, 1937-93 ISBN 1 905118 04 X Ref: CD12 Price: €74.90 or US$79.95 Description: The Official Organ of the Irish Genealogical Research Society was first published in April 1937. This publication covers from that very first issue up to Volume 8 in 1993. The Irish Genealogist, through many of its articles, allowed researchers gain access to material that in many cases was held in private collections, was otherwise inaccessible or lost, particularly following the fire in the Public Records Office in 1922. Covering such diverse topics as family registers, abstracts of Diocesan Wills, monumental inscriptions, many important family genealogies, guides for those wishing to do their own genealogical research, as well as Ken Nicholls standard setting work on the Kavanaghs (1400 – 1700). These and much more are covered in over 5,000 pages of invaluable material, compiled in an easy to use and search format, using scans of the original volumes. Title: The 1798 Rebellion: Claimants and Surrenders ISBN 1 905118 03 1 Ref: CD13 Price: €29.90 or US$29.95 Description: The 1798 Rebellion was a watershed in Irish history. It has been estimated that up to 30,000 people were killed during the uprising, with many more wounded. This CD brings together some of the few remaining primary sources about the people involved in this conflict. It contains two lists of individuals who made claims for compensation for loss of property during the rising, and also two lists of rebels who surrendered in Dublin City and Coolock Barony. In total there are over 8,000 names included in this publication covering two different groups – those who took up arms and those whose property was damaged. These groups come from every social background, from poor Dublin city labourers and artisans to the aristocratic ascendancy of late eighteenth century Ireland. For more details about any of these titles, and our existing range of Irish historical and genealogical publications, visit: http://www.eneclann.ie/pub-cat.htm We look forward to hearing from you, and wish you all a very Merry Christmas.

    1. 1901 and 1902
    2. Peter
    3. At last some good news from our Government thanks to the Canadian Government telling them how to do it. The following appeared in The Irish Times today. Census information from the early 20th century will be available on the Internet from next year, following an agreement between Canada and Ireland. Minister for Arts, Sport and Tourism John O'Donoghue signed an agreement between the National Archives of Ireland and Library and Archives Canada, which will see the Irish census records for 1901 , and 1911 digitised and placed online. Access will be free and interest is expected from many Canadians, 13per cent of whom claim Irish ancestry. Census records are currently only available at the National Archives in Dublin. The three-year project will allow anyone to search for an Irish ancestor quickly and easily. People will also be able to access historical information and images. Information will be available from December 2006. The census records contain the name, sex, marital status, occupation, and county and country of birth of everyone listed in every dwelling in the country including houses prisons hospitals, military barracks and industrial schools.They also include details on each person's literary level ability to speak Irish number of years women were married and the total number of children born Though the first full government census was taken in 1821,the 1901 census is the earliest surviving. Other censuses were destroyed mainly in the fire of 1922 at the Public Records Office

    1. Any HAYES researchers out there?
    2. Karen Bell
    3. Hello everybody, Is there anyone out there researching the HAYES family that may have come across a GARRETT HAYES? The only reference I have of him is in the Index to Marriage License Bonds for Cashel & Emly for 1796. He marries a Sarah Perry. She died in 1822 at age 50 and is buried at Ballinure Graveyard with a sister and a brother but her husband is not buried with her. I assume he would have been the same age or somewhat older which would give him a birth around 1770 or slighly earlier. I did find one Garratt Hayes running a Tavern and Public House at Clonmel in the 1824 Pigot but I am uncertain if this is the same person. If anyone has come across this name in their research I'd love to hear from you. Thank-you, Karen Bell

    3. Christina thank you for the recipe link . Last year I had an Irish dinner party, which was great fun. I did a lot of searching for typical Irish recipes. I finally ended up doing chicken, colcannon (yum) vegetables and a very popular beef and Guinness dish. Dessert was apple pie. I made Irish flags, placemats depicting my family names and items of interest about Ireland. I made name cards in the shape of a shamrock (stuck onto a wooden skewer and lodged in a potato) - all the guests were "Saint whatever". I did a trivia quiz (all things Irish) and the prizes were all green. Did other things as well, it was all great fun and extremely successful. This is my first posting here - my great great grandparents, Martin McNamara and Margaret Leo came to Australia from Ballina, Tipperary in 1841 aboard the "Adam Lodge". There were other Leos on the ship but I have not tracked any of them down. Margaret died and Martin remarried, so there are a lare number of descendants here in Australia. Naturally I would be pleased to hear from anyone who may have connections with these particular McNamaras.

    1. O'Hallorans
    2. Hello list, I am new to the list and am researching the family of John O'Halloran and Mary O'Connell. Mary was born in 1850 and died on April 14, 1927. I've been told that they had 22 or 23 children. They were from Ballyboe, Clonmel. I have the following children's names: Johanna (my husband's grandmother) McCunney Ann Ellen Peter John Bridget Nora (McCarthy) James Mary (Hallihan) Margaret (Carobine) Katherine (Carobine) Thomas Elizabeth Anyone sound familiar?

    1. Armstrong / Massey
    2. Carrie & Shawn Gibbons-Patterson
    3. Hello everyone - I'm new to the list, so here goes... I have a Robert Armstrong, born about 1806 in Ireland (don't know where) who married a Frances Ann, born around 1816, also in Ireland (somewhere). After coming to Canada, they had eleven children, all in Ontario, starting in the Ottawa area and moving southward towards Middlesex County (London). Their first child, Alicia, married Angus Perkins; they are my third great grandparents. The reason I'm posting on the Tipperary list is because of what's engraved on Frances Ann's headstone. It reads: "In memory of Frances Ann, beloved wife of Robert Armstrong / died April 19, 1894 / Granddaughter of Sir Francis Hugh Massey of / Castle Suir, Queen's County, Ireland" After some searching, I don't think Francis Hugh was a Sir as much a Baron (excuse my ignorance in this regard, Canada's a little shy on formal title) decended from Hugh Massy, the 1st Baron Massy found in Burke's Peerage. I also notice that Castle Suir is (and perhaps always was?) in Tipperary County, rather than Queen's. So my challenge is this, I think I know who the grandfather is in the Peerage (Francis Hugh Massy, born about 1790) but I'm having trouble connecting my Frances Ann through one of his children - below: ........ 2 Francis Hugh Massy b: Abt. 1830 d: March 3, 1901 ............ +Gertrude Masterton Walter b: Abt. 1830 m: February 14, 1889 d: July 29, 1919 ........ 2 Daniel Molloy Massy, Col. b: Abt. 1830 ............ +Sophia Grant b: Abt. 1830 m: October 21, 1876 d: July 16, 1919 ........ 2 Anne Bomford Massy b: Abt. 1830 ............ +John Henry St. George Whitty b: Abt. 1830 m: September 21, 1871 ........ 2 Jane Adelaide Massy b: Abt. 1830 d: April 3, 1906 ............ +Austin Damer Cooper b: Abt. 1830 m: April 29, 1886 d: Bef. 1906 I'd sure appreciate any help anyone can offer. I'm completely unfamiliar with research in Ireland (I'm just starting to direct my research there) but I'm keen to learn! And while I've got your attention, can someone explain the difference between this list and the CoTipperary-L@rootsweb.com one? Thanks so much for any help!

    3. As we think of the holidays - we think of traditional foods. If anyone would like to contribute a recipe that was made in your family, let me know. You can post it here. (This is a quiet time on the lists.) If you like, name it after the ancestor who made it. I think that makes for a nice remembrance. They will go on the Irish Recipes page. http://www.rootsweb.com/~irllog/recipes/main.htm Thanks, Christina
