This is a follow up to my earlier "Hughes I could use" post. The James Hughes/Margaret Walsh marriage was actually Patrick Hughes. And I found out that Patrick and Margaret named their first 2 sons Patrick (1865) and James (1867), as did my ancestors Thomas Hughes and Mary Lyons(Thomas 1872 and Patrick 1875). And that Patrick Hughes of Clonmore married Margaret Byrne. I have found one birth record for them, Patrick, born in 1843 (town of Liscoleman). The husband of Margaret Walsh has a birth year of 1841, if I can still trust the LDS record, so this is pretty close, though perhaps a tad young. The interesting (alright, downright frustrating) thing about all this is that neither the (potential) Hughes nor Lyons family seemed to have named daughters after their mothers. I can also add another Hughes to the Rathvilly mix: Patrick Hughes Gender: Male Birth Date: 5 Feb 1866 Birth Place: Rathvilly, Carlow, Ireland Father's Name: John Hughes Mother's name: Eliza Magee FHL Film Number: 101121 Name: Mary Anne Hughes Gender: Female Birth Date: 8 Feb 1868 Birth Place: Rathvilly, Car, Ireland Baptism Place: Rathvilly, Car, Ireland Father's Name: John Hughes Mother's name: Eliza Magee FHL Film Number: 101161 These are Thomas and Mary (Lyons) children with sponsors: Mary-William Hughes & Elizabeth Hughes Dora-James Doyle & Bridget Dolan Patrick- Patrick Lyons & Nannie Dunn James- John Delaney & Elizabeth Lyons Thomas- William Nolan & Anne Maher All are in Rathvilly. So Byrne doesn't add anything at the moment. Take care, Kevin

As my Hughes and Lyons families are in both Carlow and Wicklow, I'm posting this here as well. I think this is the family I want. Is anyone else searching them, or have any information about them? My ancestor Thomas Hughes married Mary Lyons 1865 in Rathvilly, Carlow. Children (in order): Mary, Dora, Patrick, James, Thomas (all born Rathvilly) Sponsors for Mary were William Hughes and Elizabeth Hughes. In their Irish database, the LDS has James Hughes (b.1841) m. Margaret Walsh 1864 in Rathvilly, Carlow. (https://www.familysearch.org/) (http://www.rootsireland.ie/ does not have it.)I couldn't find any children, so I wonder if they emigrated. Both men name their father as Patt. Most Patrick Hughes seem to have been spoken for, but this one has been rather quiet: Hughes, Patrick County : Carlow Parish : Clonmore Location : Ballynakill (from Griffith's 1852) The only other Hughes I found in Rathvilly was Martin, who was also listed in Griffith's (1852). I would say this is he: Church Marriage Hughes Martin 1847 Co. Wicklow Church Baptism Hughs Eliza 1848 Co. Wicklow Church Baptism Hughs William 1851 Co. Wicklow Church Baptism Hughs Michael 1855 Co. Wicklow All RATHVILLY (RC). This could be the William and Elizabeth who sponsored Mary Hughes above. It's certainly the easiest explanation. The 3 boy's names make sense; I would imagine the girls do, too. There are only 3 Dora/othy Hughes in the records, and I've got one. Church Baptism Hughs Dorothy 1829 Co. Wicklow AVOCA (RC) Father: Pat RootsIreland has 15 birth records for Dora (and variations) Hughes. Only 3 are in Wicklow, including mine and a Dorothy also in 1869, in Arklow. This is the only Hughes marriage I found to a Dorothy: Church Marriage Hughes Farrell 1841 Co. Wicklow BALTINGLASS (RC) I don't know how or if he fits in. Any ideas? Thanks and take care, Kevin
We are back at our computers after the holidays. I have just uploaded *Glenealy Cemetery from Joyce Tunstead. Joyce explained that this cemetery is not connected to the Glenealy Parish Church Graveyard which we also have headstones for. This cemetery appears to contains a mix of religions. *Also new...1842 Royal Irish Constabulary enlistees from Wicklow. These include where the man was posted and date of marriage, if any. To view either or both of the new offerings - go to our main page: http://www.igp-web.com/IGPArchives/ Click on WICKLOW and then either Headstones or Military & Constabulary.

My great grandfather Patrick (O’)Toole immigrated in the late 1880’s to the United States. I was wondering if there was information about the rest of the family that seemed to have stayed in Ireland. Patrick’s parents were Luke Toole and Bridget Bolger of Aughrim. Thanks! Stacy O’Toole Kilts
I'm wondering if anyone else is researching these lines: Thomas Hughes married Mary Lyons in Rathvilly in 1865. The Hughes family emigrated to New Brunswick, NJ in the 1880's. His parents may be the Patrick Hughes and Betty Moore married 11 May 1839 in Rathshanmore. They seemed to have lived around Hacketstown, and had William and Lawrence. I haven't found a Thomas, it's a guess on my part. Mary's parents are Luke Lyons and Betty Stewart, married in Raheen in 1836. I believe Betty was born Hester Stewart to John and Elizabeth (maybe Toole)in Tuckmill in 1808. Only child I know of. Luke was born in Rathvilly in Jan. 1809 to Patrick and Judith Lyons. I don't know her maiden name. They had 6 children. If anyone else is looking for these people, or interested in them, let me know. I've got some information. Take care, Kevin

ON BEHALF OF Peter (resend) I am researching the descendants and ancestors of John Chamley/Chomley bap. 3 Jun 1742 Morland, Westmoreland, England - died 12 Mar 1817 Belcamp, Malahide. John arrived in Dublin between 1760 and 1763 to work as a lawyer with his maternal uncle Christopher Abbott, of George's Hill, Esq; an eminent Attorney (died of smallpox Drumcondra March 1783). John married Henrietta Baker, a granddaughter of Major Henry Baker of Malahide and Courtlough (Mentioned by Macaulay as one of the defenders of Derry) on 25 May 1753 at St Peter's, Dublin and lived at Belcamp, Malahide. They had 6 sons (John 1781-1805, Thomas 1782-?, George 1783-1856, Henry ?, Francis 1784/5-1847 and 4 daughters Lucy ?-1824, Louisa Maria ?-pre 1821 married William Hanna of Corduff, Henrietta ?-1817 married Edward Malone of Baronstown, Caroline Mary ?-? married John Weir of Hall Craig, Fermanagh. Questions: when did John Chamley/Chomley arrive in Ireland? How did he become a lawyer? Where is his grave at Balrothy or Santry? In a Will dated 26 Mar 1763, proven 21 June 1766, Edward Stritch of Limerick, Merchant references "my nephew John Chamley" ref: Wills Vol 26 p 225 .... who was Edward Stritch and how was he related? Attorney - Exchequer Lawyer for the Chamney family of Wicklow, Kings Inn Admissions T1766 - was there a blood relationship with Chamney family? Are any other descendants alive today?

Hi Rachel....yes, SS. stands for Saints Mary & Peter. Also, Rachel, since my records stop at about 1875-80, you might find other's at the G.R.O. in Dublin. I'm not sure how cooperative the Parish Office is, when it comes to look-ups. I know there is a fee. There is an Esther living at #11 Lower Main St, Arklow in 1901 Census.... Here are the inhabitants of same address in 1901: Doyle, Esther, 17 - Visitor of Anthony and Bride Murray Doyle, Esther, 68 - married. retired nurse The rest of the inhabitants are all Murrays. Bride Anne Murray (above) was a Doyle. They married 12 Oct. 1886 in Arklow. She was 39 in the 1901 census. She died 2nd Dec. 1912 aged 64. Perhaps Esther, aged 68 was Bride Anne's mother? I might have more, if you want to write off the list. cheers, Peggy
Cara, Thanks very much for all this. I had come across the possibility of a Galway connection. Patrick and Jane may have had 3 children there before moving to Dublin. As for the Gaskins buried at Killadreenan parish of Kilquade RC and Parish of Newcastle Church of Ireland - if you ever get a chance to transcribe the details, then that would be fantastic!

OMG! Oh Wow thank you Peggy! I definitely know there were other (probably 6 - 10) not sure how many but thank you for your contact :) I see emails arrive each day in my inbox about everyone else's relatives and thought maybe my email had got lost somehow so I am SO pleased to hear from you AND esp with this news. I have a huge extended family here in NZ and only a couple of relatives of my grandfathers generation left to chat with but they're far away and difficult to communicate with... If I get further information I will certainly pass it onto you. Can you tell me what SS is, as in "1878 in SS. Mary & Peter's" - would it be 'Saint/s'?

Thank you, Margaret for the information you have provided. With luck I'll be able to establish the relationship between the 2 Kearons which will then lead me further back into the family's past. Joan Margaret Lambson To irl-wicklow@rootsweb.I have Thomas Kearon as the father of Joseph Kearon, based on their marriage record. I hope this helps. "1st July 1863.
