Hear hear Eileen....I couldn't agree with you more! I have oftened wondered from here in New Zealand, if there are any Sinnott familes from Enniscorthy, Wexford who wonder about family they might have in NZ. I'd like to think they do.

Everyone of those areas are covered by another List Eileen, so therefore to make a connection with anyone who for instance is researching the McGraths for example you would join that ROOTSWEB list for the area of England you suspect they went to same applies to South America and for all of your other names and places, I have only noted a few area not covered by RW and that could be simply remedied by someone making a request. Cheers Cara
Hi Patti, I'm replying to this mail very late but I just wanted to say that your question is a very good one. It does seem strange that out of all the Irish genealogy websites that look 'in' from outside Ireland there does not seem to be one that looks 'out' from inside Ireland. During my family research I have found out about many family members from earlier generations who emigrated to other countries but then lost contact with the family back in Wexford. I'd love to have a way of letting them know they are being searched for by their roots.

Barbara~ Check out the IGP web site. Click on Wexford or any other county you are interested. Many researchers have shared data. On the Wexford site, I shared over 5000 surnames for the Parish of Rathangan for baptism and marriage. The former start about 1803 and the latter start same year but end in 1895. There are WHITE and SINNOTT sacramental records listed. Also Eileen has donated records. I know Eileen was researching a connection of WHITE/SINNOTT to O'BRIAN which are connected to the maternal side of my husband's CLEARY line. However, to that particular line there was no connection. The connection is through a marriage to an O'BRIAN of a SULLIVAN. Those records are on the Rathangan sacramental list. There is a space of approx. 1848 to about 1853 which are not there. They do exist at the parish church. The book was too fragile to allow transcription. Know this because some of our records were for those years. On a trip over made an appointment at the parish house. Father let us look through the books for the records we needed.

My great grandfather was born in Prospect, County Wexford 10 March 1805. I think he had a brother named Patrick born about 1796 and another brother named Timothy born about 1815. And I think he had many other siblings. I think his father's name began with the letter M and his mother's name might be Mary. If you can get me the name of the local priest and his address I would be glad to write to him.

Mary Ellen, I'm not sure I understood your post correctly. Are you saying that your husband has a counsin Mary who came from a line of Clearys? And this Mary/these Clearys are connected to the post office in Duncormick currently/long past? I have a tie to the postmistress in Duncormick but it is a long way back and goes from White to Brien including a marriage to a Cleary around 1910 (but my early details are still unproven). Are you also connected to the Duncormick Sinnotts?

Hi, Cara, John Kane who died in 1906 is a person of interest per your list of burials. John Kane/Keane is alive for the 1901 census for Ballinacur but is not alive for the 1911 census. I have identified 10 of the children thanks to you, Cara, and also the IGI and the census information. 1) Catherine b 2-3-1866 2) Elizabeth b 5-8-1868 3/4) Twins Ellen and Mary b 5-20-1872 5) Bridget b 6-26-1874 6) Margaret b 10-15-1876 7) Unknown 8) Denis b 2-27-1879 (IGI plus census) 9) Nicholas b 1-1-1882 (per info from memoir) 10) Julia b @ 1885 (per census) 11) John b @1887 (per census) Nicholas' memoir said he was the 3rd youngest of 11 children. The missing child might have been born @ 1870 since there is a gap there and possibly did not survive. Should you have any information on John Keane/Kane who died in 1906, he might possibly be Nicholas' father.

Greetings Edd from New Zealand I don't know if you will be able to recognise these names, but it is worth a try anyway. I am researching a SINNOTT family, my ggrandparents, who emigrated from Enniscorthy Wexford, Ireland to Dunedin,NZ in 1874. There was father Gregory, died 1879 aged 54, Ann(ie) (nee Kidd on some documents and nee Boyne on others), died 1900 aged 71 and children John died 1881 aged 19, Patrick died 1883 also 19 and Edward (Moses) died 1914 aged 44. My grandmother, Mary Ann was born here. Gregory's death certificate states that his parents were Patrick Sinnott and Ann, nee Shale (though I suspect that might be Sheil or Sheill). It took me years to find his death here in NZ because he was registered as George Sennett, so I suspect there was a problem understanding the irish accent. Maybe, you could point me in the right direction of where to go next....hope so anyway.

Thanks Ed. I see the sight was done by Dr. Jane LYONS, a very knowledgeable lady. When we are over next, will have to drive over to Bannow to see what is there.

We are over at least once a year; therefore, familiar with most of the graveyards in the above placenames area. Some are not mentioned on the list and others give Bannow as the place for the graveyard. That is a distance from them. I was curious as to where the data was obtained. At least, for my husband's maternal ancestors minus one, they are interred in cemeteries much closer. I did check out the Duncormick one of which we have a record, epitaphs, and placement of graves. Thought I might find some Sinott's for you. Sadly, did not. The cemetery and church is about 500 meters from Sinnot's Pub which is directly in the center of the small townland next to the Post Office. My husband's cousin Mary is the post mistress for that area. We and the family do not know where his g grandfather Patrick CLEARY is buried. He died about 1880. The family home place is in the area known as The Cull - Blackstone. We'll find him one of these visits.

However, at least with our Irish cousins, they are interested in our common ancestors in Ireland before 1864. They have helped us and themselves as much as they could. Both Mayo & Wexford live on the same home place the families have occupied since pre 1798 (Wexford) and approx. 1850 for Mayo.

Many survivors fled and families lost contact. Many are just plain suspicious of people showing up in a village/town after 200 years seeking a kinship. Which is understandable. I'm sure in the USA we would be too. Just some ideas re: you question. Mary Ellen Chambers Hi Mary Ellen I found this very interesting--thank you for writing it. My grandparents both came from Co Donegal(Carndonagh, Malin Head, Glenmakee area) I wish I had known them better, and learned more about their lives in Ireland before they came to MA My grandfather died in 1931, way before any of us cousins were born, and Mary Ann (grandmother) died in 1958. I'd love to one day find(as we think we still have families on both O'Donnell/Bradley- sides) family members still living in that area. In doing family research I've learned that by marriages I have a family from Wexford but they are in CA, and those that immigrated from Wexford have long since died. Name Sinnott. b ________________________________ From: patricia meyers <pattimeyers67@att.net> To: wexford list <IRL-WEXFORD@rootsweb.com> Sent: Thu, June 17, 2010 10:14:12 AM Subject: [IRL-WEXFORD] general question...
