My late husband's grandfather, Patrick John COONEY came to Connecticut from Mohurry, Enniscorthy, Wexford. Patrick's parents were Richard COONEY and Dorathea (Dora, Dorah, Dolly) LEARY. Their birthdates are around 1828. They married in Rathnure on 13 January 1856 and died, 11 months apart, in 1906. Richard and Dora's graves are in Ballindaggin, Coolacarney, Old Cemetery When we visited Mohurry, we were told LEARY and O'LEARY were rather interchangeable. Do you have any information that makes all this sound familiar? (also, I kept coming across vital records for Patrick COONEY and wife Anastatia "Anty"LEARY and wondered if brothers married sisters) Any clues?

I have found a newspaper reference in the "Wexford Evening Post" - March 1826 - to a court case which appears may have been in Waterford, but perhaps Wexford, City Court. I am wondering how one can attempt to get information from the actual court records of that time (1826) from either city court? Jim

It is a working farm which icludes extensive apple orchards commercially operated. ( Have Photos) Originally Ballycross was an outstanding 3 storey five bay mansion with a large garanite Plillared porch and special features such as a very fine staircae and mahogany doors, In or around 1863 Thomas Lacy refers to as the seat of one John Rowe esquire and a very fine residence. He went on to descrive the mansion as a large square vuilding of comparitively recent erection and of ample proportions, surrounded with ornamental pleasure grounds enriched with fine plantations. The present home incorporates some of the original features and stands beside a large and pleasant yard of excellent outbuildings such as stables, cow houses and other buildings. Which today house said animals and others which are availble for children to visit and see them. History The Rowe family settled the area in the middle of the 17th century and were granted the neighbouring property of Ballyharty ( q.v.) The OLD Ballycross house was built c 1840 by John Rowe, who was an adventurous landowner and he reclaimed hundreds of acreage of submerged lands around Ballyteigue. He owed upward of 8000 acres, Rowe street in Wexford bearing his name today. On John Rowes death in c1875, the house was reputed to be left to his wife who was nee Bolton of the Island Co Wexford. Furney family records indicate that their family lived there in the later 19th century, moving between this house and Hill Castle and being still in residence at up to around 1901 at Ballycross or later. The Furneys were connected to the Leared family of Juliamount and GLenville. Frederick Hughes occuppied the house from 1905-1922, and felt obliged to leae due to the Civil war activities in the area. Another family connection a Mr. Stewart lived there and he married a Misse Deane Drake . Local folk lore says that the house was once occupied by Commander Cummings who specialised in pig breeding. After the house was demolished in 1948 a new dwelling was built around the servant quarters, This accidently burnt down and was rebuilt by the Von Engelbrechten family who came from Germany, this is the family who has established the very brilliant and productive apple farm and animal farm at Ballycross. I do have photos if you are interested in the house and area but mainly of the apple and farming area of Ballycross. This is further reading on the internet http://www.ballycross.com/index.php/image-gallery This site hold images and updates on the Ballycross Apple Orchard. Yours In Gen Cara Feel free to contact me if you would like me to upload the photos for you to acess this applies to anyone interested in any photos I have on Wexford, if you think I may have something to interest you then contact me, just because these days I have learnt to be silent, does not mean I am not interested in all things associated with Genealogy in Wexford.

Cara, I can not thank you enough for all the information on Ballycross. I am still in contact with the Leared family, my Great Grandfather married two of them!, I hasten to add not at the same time, and that the eldest son of the eldest son has taken Leared as a first name. The Furneys and Boltons see to have being marrying each other for some time, William Bolton marrying Sophia Furney at Castletown Queens County which is where my Gt Grandfather Lemuel was living, maybe that is how he came to Wexford. You mention in your email "Furney family records indicate..." if you have any more on the Family, and can find the time, I would be most grateful for any information. Thank you again Regards Peter Furney

Never overlook the fact that the O may not always appear on your name search. This is general information and not to suggest they were your family, but it would appear they may have been the founding fathers of the name in Wexford PALLIS HOUSE O'Sullivan The O'Sullivans who have always dwelt in this house came from Tipperary and settled first at Barracurragh. Pallis was built in 1769 by a builder name Ryan of Crochan and served as a mill owners dwelling The mill continued working through out the 1798 Rising and 1916-1922 troubled times and finally closed in the early 1950's. Patrick Sullivan (sic) is recorded as the miller in the Mill Book in 1846, so the name Continued in Wexford up until 1920 and after that date, and some may be there still. This is something I have in notes, but will be looking more at the name that is why this mial is numbered 1- Cheers for now Cara I use BullGuard Spamfilter to keep my inbox clean.

Dear Peter, Baile na Croise equates to Town or place of the cross, located at Bridgetown Co Wexford and associated family names were Rowe, Furney, Hughes, Quirke, Clkiffe, Stewart, Cummings and Von Engelbrechten Is in the townland of Ballycross Location is S997 091 South West of Bridgetown Village, over the bridge and turn right The oringinal home was demolished in 1948 where a later house now stands on the site and is inhabited. It is a working farm which icludes extensive apple orchards commercially operated. ( Have Photos) Originally Ballycross was an outstanding 3 storey five bay mansion with a large garanite Plillared porch and special features such as a very fine staircae and mahogany doors, In or around 1863 Thomas Lacy refers to as the seat of one John Rowe esquire and a very fine residence. He went on to descrive the mansion as a large square vuilding of comparitively recent erection and of ample proportions, surrounded with ornamental pleasure grounds enriched with fine plantations. The present home incorporates some of the original features and stands beside a large and pleasant yard of excellent outbuildings such as stables, cow houses and other buildings. Which today house said animals and others which are availble for children to visit and see them. History The Rowe family settled the area in the middle of the 17th century and were granted the neighbouring property of Ballyharty ( q.v.) The OLD Ballycross house was built c 1840 by John Rowe, who was an adventurous landowner and he reclaimed hundreds of acreage of submerged lands around Ballyteigue. He owed upward of 8000 acres, Rowe street in Wexford bearing his name today. On John Rowes death in c1875, the house was reputed to be left to his wife who was nee Bolton of the Island Co Wexford. Furney family records indicate that their family lived there in the later 19th century, moving between this house and Hill Castle and being still in residence at up to around 1901 at Ballycross or later. The Furneys were connected to the Leared family of Juliamount and GLenville. Frederick Hughes occuppied the house from 1905-1922, and felt obliged to leae due to the Civil war activities in the area. Another family connection a Mr. Stewart lived there and he married a Misse Deane Drake . Local folk lore says that the house was once occupied by Commander Cummings who specialised in pig breeding. After the house was demolished in 1948 a new dwelling was built around the servant quarters, This accidently burnt down and was rebuilt by the Von Engelbrechten family who came from Germany, this is the family who has established the very brilliant and productive apple farm and animal farm at Ballycross. I do have photos if you are interested in the house and area but mainly of the apple and farming area of Ballycross. This is further reading on the internet http://www.ballycross.com/index.php/image-gallery This site hold images and updates on the Ballycross Apple Orchard. Yours In Gen Cara Feel free to contact me if you would like me to upload the photos for you to acess this applies to anyone interested in any photos I have on Wexford, if you think I may have something to interest you then contact me, just because these days I have learnt to be silent, does not mean I am not interested in all things associated with Genealogy in Wexford.

If you call in at the library in Wexford Town they may be able to help locate graveyards where O'Sullivans are buried. You will find the staff there most helpful.

[snip] ....living in Shanowle, Horetown, Wexford. My GGGgrandfather's name was Nicholas. However, there is no Raheen nearby. === Karen, The townland of Poulpeasty is located in Whitechurchglynn civil parish, about 2 miles or so NNW of Taghmon town. A mile or so SW of Poulpeasty is the townland of Shanowle, in Horetown civil parish. From Shanowle, heading due south, we come to a Raheen townland, in Taghmon civil parish. The Shanowle-to-Raheen distance is only a bit over a mile by magpie, but nearly 3 miles by road. There is a similarly-named townland of Pollpeasty about a dozen mile NW of Poulpeasty, and a Raheen within 3 miles or so of it.......but no Shanowle nearby [gr]. === What I'd like to find is the parish where the O'Sullivans were from, the church they would have attended, but most of all, the graveyard where ancestors could be buried. === This will take a bit of time (which I don't have much of, these days.....), but I'll try to put some of this together within the next week. Fortunately, you're not leaving for Ireland soon. A quick glance at my maps, etc. shows RC churches in nearby Carrowreagh and Cullenstown, and graveyards in Kilgarvan and Wilkinstown. And, of course, both categories are prevalent in and around Taghmon town, which is less than 3 miles from Poulpeasty townland. I'll get back to you on this remaining info soon, but if you have any additional questions, drop me a line. Just a caution, though - I don't do any genealogy, so I'd only feel comfortable with geography, archaeology, some history......and related matters [gr].
