Thanks Shela! I will pull out all my info today and send it out there! ;) Christine ________________________________ From: slstrick <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Sunday, June 21, 2009 9:28:17 AM Subject: [IRL-WICKLOW] McGrath - a summary ? Hi Christine,     Perhaps you would like to post a summary of the info you have on your McGrath.  Pension Info, Military service,  US Census info location and dates, Wife,  Children - dates and places of birth and death, any alternate spelling of the name.  The mailing list archives have 37 messages on McGrath - some of them are lengthy discussions.  It takes quite a lot of time for someone to wade through and piece together the items to find a connection to you.     Did he die before his wife ?  If so, did his wife apply for a widow's pension ?  My experience with the widow's pension application is that - I found the townland BALLARD for my Wicklow ancestors John O'Neill and Mary Doyle hiding in the small print of the document certifying their marriage in the RC church Kilbride-Barndarrig in Dec1855.  I had the document for several years before I realize the word "Ballard" was written in it.     Other places to search - Track down the children and their children in the US records - find as many as you have the stamina to pursue. My O'NEILL descendants resided in Buffalo, NY.  One day I tracked down an 1930 US Census for a 2nd cousin that moved to California.  It showed her as Head of House residing with an uncle, a Catholic priest, Father Edward Arthur BURKE.  Never in our family did we hear of a connection to Burke.  So I back tracked Father Burke through the US census - in 1880 he resided in Kentucky with cousin Kate DOYLE and in 1860 with parents John Burke and Ann Donnelly in Kentucky.  Living close by was the family of Patrick DOYLE and Katherine Donley with 6 daughters - Mary, Margaret, Bridget, Kate, Eliza and Alice.  Now I am trying to find what became of these 6 DOYLE woman.  I have 2 of them located - still searching for the other 4.     The marriage certificate in the widow's pension file shows that my ancestors John O'Neill and Mary Doyle were from Ballard, Co Wicklow.  I am still looking for the information to connect Patrick DOYLE to Co Wicklow.

RE: ROLL CALL - LISTERS My name is Pat Murray Scott from the U.S. My family name is MURRAY. I know this Murray family was in Co Wicklow in 1860 and 1862 (see William, my grandfather, and Joseph below) Were they there before 1860 and after 1862? My great-grandfather and his six sons were stonemasons. I have evidence they worked in Ireland, Wales and Scotland before emigrating in 1869. (ship's Manifest "1001 England" arrived New York 19 May 1869. Frances Hunt Murray was left in Hull, England with five younger children to give birth to George, but she was in Philadelphia. PA,US in the 1870 US Census.) Reason for emigration: I think they were looking for steady work. FULL NAMES OF MURRAY FAMILY JAMES MURRAY b. abt 1824 maybe Dublin. d 1902 Wheeling WV US. - no record of birth or death yet FRANCES HUNT b. abt 1830 maybe Co Roscommon, d 1899, Wheeling WV US no record of birth or death yet MARRIAGE RECORD: married 5 Jan 1847 Co Leitrim, CSI Kiltoghert RC., transcribed by Pauline McCartin 2008, (THANK YOU, PAULINE!) 12 Children: JOHN JOSEPH b 1 Oct. 1848 Wales - (US Census) - d 22 Dec 1927 Wheeling WV US (Death Cert) CHRISTOPHER LAURENCE (CHRIS) b 27 May 1850 (US Census) - d 29 Apr 1895 Bellaire OH US (Death record and obit) I believe Chris was born in Leitrim and have a CSI birth record with right date, right father, but wrong mother's name. His given name fits all the family names for Hunt in Kiltoghert Parish in Griffiths.

Well all the places you mention are Wicklow so it would appear she had her children in the Parish of Avoca- but after researching the name Kinsella forever and a day under that spelling, I had to take a waked up call only yesterday when I realised how many other ways it may be spelt. If it appears on the census does it not say child Andrew one would think it would Nothing of course unusual about a child born before marriage, it happened.

I would love to know where they found the name EVES or what it is the derivative of, bet they did not explain that little matter to you to aid the search, seing as they are linked to Toole name also. Yes if you can throw a candle on the name EVES and give me a glimmer of what it may have been would help Carol, well it would help Cara as well. Cara

Thanks for your advice Cara. It is frustrating as I've tried to get a birth certificate a couple of times with no success. Hopefully, I'll get there.

Thanks to Joyce Tunstead and Yvonne Russell http://www.igp-web.com/IGPArchives/ire/wicklow/photos/tombstones/headstones/ballinatone.txt with interest to the text of headstone No.85 is I am sure the resting place of Edward Johnson Surveyor and Valour for Lord Meath, Lord Wicklow, Mr. Gunn-Cunningham and occasionally Lord FitzWilliam. And father of Daniel Johnson. Should anyone have any details regarding his birth c.1791 and/or his marriage (date unknown) to Elizabeth (surname unknown) 1797-1880 I would be grateful. In the same spirit as Cara's stories, I offer the following entry by the minister which I noted when searching the Killiskey C of I records at the National Archives. "In May 1897 Robert Sutton of Black Ditches was having a field known as Casey's field ploughed. The slice? struck a rock. He gave orders to have the rock blasted and when the hole was being made a hollow sound being emitted the men began to investigate and finally discovered a perfect cist ? ? the rock they were trying to blast was the covering stone. Next day I saw it. It contained a large skeleton the bones were quite hard and teeth still remained in jaw. The femur measures 19 inches. A fragment of a bowl was also found and I examined it. It was of baked clay with a zigzag ribbon pattern. The pattern was exactly the same [can't decipher next four words] bowl found at Ballym?t in Sligo, of which there is an illustration in Wichemans Irish Antiquities. I heard that 60 years ago another similar cist was found at Cullen's farm but they were so frightened at the discovery that they covered it up. Also that one had been found at Broomhall. The Cist was this shape - [oblong drawing]. measures inside [crossed out] 6ft.6" long 2ft.6 wide and was about 2ft. high." On the opposite page he has drawn a elevation sketch of the cap stone supported by two pillars. He notes ;" The covering stone has curious slants like a roof". Frank Kehoe

Cara I think they may have been Quakers originally - see IGP Archives, and the name EVES is/was to be found in Co. Wicklow for sure. Recently I transcribed a Headstone for a SAMUEL EVES PIM. Also quite a number listed on IGI. So it would appear to have been a name in its own right. Still in Telephone Directory. On the record on FamilySearch it gives the source, i.e. film no. etc. It seems (and I say this from other reseach done by me) that with some Canadian Death Records they give a lot of family information, something similar to Australian Death Certs. This tip was a good one - I have found relatives using the suggested search method - so thanks Carol. Joyce >I would love to know where they found the name EVES or what it is the > derivative of,

Hi, Enter a SURNAME and COUNTRY (optional) only, then Search. On the top right, under Sources Searched, selected IGI. This will give you the option to enter Counties, States, etc, depending on which country you want. From there, pick Refine Search and you can enter first names, births, marriages, deaths, years and range. The only thing you can't do is enter parent's names WITHOUT the persons First Name. hope this helps.
