    3. Hi Ed, Rich Hansen seems to have covered most of it, but if you do a Google search you can find a lot of information on there from various sources. Like all things they are open to interpretation. People from Northern Ireland can sometimes be more "Irish" than we down South would consider normal, but then the real Ireland exists in our imagination and hearts, not in political boundaries. They have different touches to the Language up there that are just as intriguing! There is a book Called Irish Place Names by P.W Joyce available for around US $7.50 or £4.00 or Can $8 and even Aus.$9.75. I'm sure you would get it from the likes of Amazon.com or even a good local bookshop the ISBN number is : 0862811279 in paperback. Google lists some 496,000 pages on Irish place names so it's a case of take your pick on line or buy the book. You have to look around for things, it's all in the imagination, that's the beauty of the Irish. slan Cyril Newsome Loch Garman... ----- Original Message ----- From: "edbld" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, March 20, 2006 3:33 AM Subject: Re: [WEX] Now look at this! > Hi Cyril: > Thanks very much for your post, as I was able to get a birdseye view of > Castletown up northeast of Gorey which I believe was the town where my > original emigrant Thomas Sinnott was born. > > I also noticed that there were three other Castletowns, but I believe this > is the one as his parents and grandparents all came from that area and > Arklow in Co.Wicklow. > > I do have another question, What do the suffixes Cool, Kil, Bally Ballin and > Barra mean before a lot of the towns names ???? is there a site that > explains this naming pattern ??? > > Edd Sinnett in Florida > > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Cyril Newsome" <[email protected]> > To: <[email protected]> > Sent: Sunday, March 19, 2006 9:43 AM > Subject: [WEX] Now look at this! > > > > Now here's something that you should all find interesting! > > > > http://gplan.wexford.ie/wexford_gplan/ > > > > It's a birds eye view of Co.

    3. Hi Cyril: Thanks very much for your post, as I was able to get a birdseye view of Castletown up northeast of Gorey which I believe was the town where my original emigrant Thomas Sinnott was born. I also noticed that there were three other Castletowns, but I believe this is the one as his parents and grandparents all came from that area and Arklow in Co.Wicklow. I do have another question, What do the suffixes Cool, Kil, Bally Ballin and Barra mean before a lot of the towns names ???? is there a site that explains this naming pattern ???

Well I can help with some of those or at least point to possibilites Bally is an Anglicization of the Irish word Baile. It literally means home or town (As in Baile Atha Cliath, town of the hurdle ford, or Dublin) but in town naming it could be as large as Dublin to as small as a four house hamlet. Cool is probably Cuil or corner, nook Kil is Cill a very old word for church. Kilkenny Canice's Church, Killpatrick well figure it out <g> Ballin could be a variant of Bally or Balla (wall) with the diminutive suffix -ín added. Barra is bar which I would take in the geographic sense not the thing you put your pint on.

    2. Cyril Newsome
    3. Now if you work on the basis of the naming pattern and he follows his father as a John Doyle, there are 136 John Doyle's as head of household listed in Griffiths' Valuation of Wexford between 1848 - 1864. I could give you every one of the Heads of household in Griffiths', but unless we can identify an area you could be looking forever and it could cost you a fortune in getting someone to do a lookup for you. Now you say "The only other fact I know about John and Bridget Doyle is that they were married in Wexford in 1833". To us here in Co.Wexford, we would take this to mean that they were actually married in the vicinity of Wexford Town! If this was the case? The odds are shortened, to there being only 15 John Doyle's as HOH in Wexford Town area for this same period (given we had the same conditions of the naming pattern as above) and subject also to the fact his father was alive and kicking at the time of Griffiths' being taken. The margin of error otherwise is too great to make wild guesses and greatly affects any research expenses. I'm sure Tina that you also meant either Monagear or Monagreany? slan Cyril Newsome Loch Garman. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Marilyn Shanahan" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, March 19, 2006 5:47 PM Subject: Re: [WEX] Doyle > Hi Tina: > Thanks for the information...now I at least have an area to research from. > The only other fact I know about John and Bridget Doyle is that they were > married in Wexford in 1833.

    3. As a matter of interest, there is a John Doyle transported to Australia for 7 years per Lord Sidmouth 1821 from County Wexford. There were actually 2 X John Doyle's per Lord Sidmouth (2) in 1821 One was aged 22 from Tipperary and the other 37 from Wexford. Both were transported for 7 yrs Neither are in the 1828 census.They both got Cert of Freedom within a week or each other and the older one got a ticket of Leave in 1825.

    3. Hi Tina: Thanks for the information...now I at least have an area to research from. The only other fact I know about John and Bridget Doyle is that they were married in Wexford in 1833. Maybe that will be of some help in tracing them, or other children they may have had. I only know about ggrandmother Margaret, as she married ggrandfather James Shanahan (also county unknown) in Chicago, Ill. Since she died young, her children were raised by her sister, Mary who also lived in Chicago. This is the only piece of information that I have right now. But thanking you, and hopefully we can find a connection somewhere down the line. Good luck.
