Daniel sullivan Co Kerry Dingle. Married Mary MC Clements of Holywood Co down Children John, Robert, Dennis and Marcus Eliza and Martha. Daniel was a boat builder by trade and was called up and fought at The Battle of Trafalgar. His famous son was Dr Robert Sullivan who was a publisher of children's dictionary and geography book. He lived in Marlborough St Dublin. Dr Robert founded Sullivan Upper School.

My great x 4 paternal grandmother was Honora Sullivan born in County Kerry abt 1820. She married Francis Morrissey. Their daughter, Ellen, my great x 3 grandmother was born in County Kerry in 1841, she married James Thomas Keane and they immigrated to New Zealand, settling in Temuka. I would love more information about my Sullivan ancestors and to make family connections. Please contact Debi - debij.18@gmail.com

MY Great Grandfather was Daniel Sullivan. He came to Victoria Australia c1860. Records say he was born 1840 in County Cork (no details). He was RC and married a Protestant so had two weddings on the same day at Port Fairy, Victoria I believe this was fairly common to keep both families reasonably happy. . Both Certificates say his father was John Sullivan. The RC one says his mother was Mary Kennedy - the C of E one says his mother was Julia Manning. Makes it virtually impossible to find which Daniel Sullivan he was and from which part of County Cork he was from. I have a list of Daniel Sullivans born in County Cork and marriages of a John with Mary Kennedy and Julia Manning but can't pin him down. Any suggestions.

My great great grandfather was Roger Sullivan of County Kerry; left in May 1848 on the Swan out of Cork with wife Catherine Moynihan. Died in Warren County, NY, early 20th century. Had several (11?) children, among them John R. (my great grandfather), Patrick and Joanna (died young, buried in St Mary's Cemetery in South Glens Falls, NY, with Roger and Catherine). I have not been able to find much else. John R's wife, my great grandmother Anna Stack Sullivan, also had parents who emigrated, I presume during the Famine, but I can't find anything about her parents other than census records stating they were born in Ireland.

Oldest Family member was Cornelius Sullivan born in Ireland about 1794. died in Fall River, MA. in 1856. Married a Bridget Eagan. Died in 1855.. Cornelius was Thought to have immigrated to USA betwen 1850-1855. May of had 8 children.

My Great Grandfather, Abel Anderson Butler, came from Massachusetts and settled in Mississippi around 1850. I believe his family previously moved from Ireland to Massachusetts. He was born around 1820. I have traced his ancestry back until then but I have hit a dead end. I plan on making a trip to Ireland so I would like to find out more information about my ancestry.

My Father was a Patrick Joseph Butler of 41 Pearse St, Kilkenny Ireland. I know very little about him.He did have 2 Brothers Sean and Michael.Also Christina his Sister. I do not that his Sister married a McGrath and divorced him. What I really want to know is my Grandmothers Maiden name. I think her first name was Maria not sure. But that address is correct. Any info at all would be greatly appreciated

I am a Angeleana Butler and I have been doing a lot of research on our Butler ancestry and I am so fascinated with our History. I would love to correspond with any of the Butlers in Ireland, if anyone would like to reach out to me that would be amazing.

Tony Butler from Mallow, Co. Cork here people....

As I find... very cryptic!

hi to all the butlers Im getting a tattoo on my arm and want to incorporate our crest into it Love the motto Any suggestions

Hello Butlers! Long shot but is the Butler in Pretoria, SA, involved in mining? I have a great-grand father who came from there. Holly

Hi, Im the great grand daughter of the Butler family in Kilkenny who ran the stables for the last Butlers who lived in the Castle. My great great grandfather, Thomas Butler, taught the last Butler daughter the Butlers of Ormonde how to horse ride. Any other Butlers out there?

Hello Gail Ryan, you wrote this to a Jenny Miller (no dates). "My great-grandfather Patrick Ryan and great-grandmother Bridget Treacy came from Borrisoleigh, and also emigrated to Queensland in ~1880. They got off the boat in Townsville, and spent their lives in Charters Towers. Perhaps we are related - Borrisoleigh is not a huge town!! My name is Cherilyn, my maiden name Cherilyn Ryan. My great-grandfather (Michael Ryan) was the twin brother of Patrick Ryan, your g-grandfather. My g-grandfather's name was Thomas Ryan and he married Anne Russell in June 1899 (or it may be 1880 - hard to tell), in Borrisoleigh, Tipperary. The town seems to be spelt differently sometimes - Borrisleigh. Sometime after that date in 1899/ 1880, the twin brothers, Thomas and Patrick, came to Townsville, North Queensland, Australia. I know my grandfather's side of the family, i.e. his parents Thomas and Anne Ryan, lived on a cattle property/ station at Calcium/ Reid River/ Toonpan/ Woodstock area - all tiny little places, more like localities really. My grandfather, and in turn my father were both born at Calcium. Woodstock is the largest village and does have a tiny school, but not even a pub! Those areas are not too far south of Townsville (now a city of 150,000 or so). Some of the Ryan's still live on that original property - there are four houses of Ryan's still remaining there. Personally, I don't know them. On my grandfather's (Michael Ryan's) birth certificate, his father Thomas Ryan's occupation is listed as lime-burner. I can't find anything that may relate to Thomas and Patrick's parents or siblings though, those who remained in Ireland, or Thomas and Patrick's dates of birth. I also can't find the date they emigrated to Australia. I was wondering if you had any information on them at all? Perhaps a photo of Thomas and Patrick together, I wonder if they were identical twins. Your g-grandparents, as far as I can tell, lived in and around Townsville all their lives, Charters Towers is quite a bit further away, well in those days of horse and cart anyway - 137km away. Gold was found in Charters Towers at one stage and perhaps they went off to the gold fields for a time. On your side of the family - I have a small "The Ryans - Family History" booklet regarding the offspring of Patrick and Bridget, formerly Tracy (spelt that way in the booklet). They had 9 children, and this particular booklet, it says, was "compiled for the Ryan Family Reunion, 27th September 1997". One of my father's aunts must have given it to me, and some of them must have kept in contact with their cousins - your side of the family. This booklet then goes on to name and give commentary on Patrick and Bridget's third born (May 1885 in Townsville), their son Thomas Patrick Ryan, who married an Alice Isabell MacDonald. It appears they had 12 children!! Your g-grandfather Patrick's occupation was listed as labourer when his son Thomas Patrick was born, according to the booklet. There are two photos in the booklet of your g-grandfather Patrick Ryan and his wife Bridget Ryan, no date on the photo though. There is also another photo of your grandfather (4 generations it says), dated 1939. Anyway, I was wondering if you could help me with any more history of on g-grandfather Thomas Ryan and his twin brother Patrick Ryan. As an aside, lime was found on that property at Calcium, also a large cattle station, and it was called the Ryan Lime Company. To this day, lime is still quarried there, but no longer owned by the Ryan's. The quarrying operation was sold decades ago and my grandfather and grandmother (Michael and Eileen Ryan) moved to Brisbane in the 1940's and built a number of shops and a small supermarket (there were no large ones back in the day) in an inner suburb of Brisbane (Queensland's capital). I have also travelled to Ireland in 1979 (and again in 2019, 40 years later). My boyfriend and I, now husband, went to see my grandfather's cousin in 1979, we were with an Irish mate in Nenagh, Tipperary (my boyfriend worked with him in London), whose mother knew my grandfather's cousin - a small world. They had a lovely home on a farm, a quite large double story house - sadly, I can't remember their names, but they lived quite close to Nenagh, where our mate came from. Anyway, this thread doesn't seem to have any dates or years on it, so hopefully I'm not writing this and it goes off into the never, never! Cheers.

Patrick Ryan married to Liza McAnnally 1860

My x 3 great grandfather was James Michael Ryan, born in Galway, Ireland abt 1819 (unsure of whether his birthplace is correct). He must have immigrated to Australia at some stage if he was born in Ireland (perhaps with parents). His father was Michael Ryan born abt 1797 in Ireland. His mother is believed to be Honora Shaulsy / Shanley / Brien (in some connected records) birthdate unknown. He married Sarah Ann Kennedy in Australia and then moved to Timaru New Zealand where he drowned in Saltwater Creek in 1867. I am unable to go back any further and would love to make some family connections and get more information about our ancestors, please contact Debi - debij.18@gmail.com

Hi, My paternal grandma was a Ryan, Margaret Ann Kathleen Ryan born in Collingwood, Victoria Australia in 1898. Her father my Great grandfather was James Michael Ryan born in Collingwood, Victoria Australia in 1858. His father my GG grandfather was Michael William Ryan born in Ireland in 1828, Tipperary. He was baptised in Drom and Inch, Diocese Cashel and Emly. I have a Gedmatch number if you would like it please contact me.

My 2x Great-grandfather. James A. Ryan was born in Thornback, Kilkenny, Ireland 9 Sep 1832 and died in Piatt Co., IL, USA 29 Dec 1900. He had a sister, Agnes, who died a spinster in Troyswood, Kilkenny, Ireland 05 Oct 1907. I am trying to find if he had other siblings. I believe his parents to have been William and Bridget Kirwick Ryan who both died in Ireland, but I am not positive where.

Jenny Miller - my great-grandfather Patrick Ryan and great-grandmother Bridget Treacy came from Borrisoleigh, and also emigrated to Queensland in ~1880. They got off the boat in Townsville, and spent their lives in Charters Towers. Perhaps we are related - Borrisoleigh is not a huge town!!

Our Ryan's come from Bottomstown, Murroe, Limerick. That is about all I know except my grandfather said the Ryan girls were known to be great beauties and his grandmother was Mary Ann Ryan O'Maley. If anyone can elaborate on the family, please let me know. Thank you and God Bless you.

(Part 1 of 3) The Ryan name has a long history in the British Isles, but now DNA and some recorded history says its origin is from the south-west region of the Emerald Island. The Ryan story [dominated by DNA tribal marker R1b-L513, Subgroup O2] can trace their beginnings to what is now County Kerry from 50 BCE. Perhaps the journey begins with the Clanna Dedad; Deda, son of Sen or Deda Mac Sin. The Ryan surname origin is possibly a branch of what will become the Dáirine [R1b-L513] who are found in south Ireland around 300 CE.

(Part 2 of 3) According to research, the Dáirine will join with the Dál Riata of north-east Ireland and invade Scotland around 500 CE. But how could this be? Recent discoveries from DNA testing are unlocking the migration patterns of Celtic tribes as late as 800 CE to 1200 CE. The Ryan story begins in pre-history Ireland but many of his descendants will then move to Kintyre, Scotland where they and other R1b-L513 members will form the Dalriada. This line and many of his kin will then travel to Brittany, France during the Dark Ages.

So I am leaving a message to all Walsh families in Kilkenny Ire my name is Reuben Innes and I am connected to a DNA family who 400 years ago lived there that was my surname before Innes family tree has one name family Jackman my tribal markers are R1b-L513

John Walsh was my grandad, he came over from Ireland to London, where I was born. He grew up in a home and so his heritage is slightly shrouded in history, especially on his Dad's side - whoever he may have been. Some secret. He was born in Dublin, was sent to Cork, and then found himself in Galway. That's when he met my Nanny Norah and eventually came over here to London.

I’m a great-grandson of Adam Walsh of Antrim Co. Ireland. He may have been born between1855-65. Came to Canada in near 1895. And settled in Renfrew Co., Ontario.

(Part 2 of 3) According to research, the Domnaill name is also found in Brittany, France. It is a very old name which appears in the 5th century Roman inscriptions as Dumnovellaunos in Brittany meaning “Deep Valour” equivalent to Irish Domhnaill. But how could this be? Recent discoveries from DNA testing are unlocking the migration patterns of Celtic tribes as late as 800 CE to 1200 CE. The Walsh story begins in pre-history Ireland then moves to Brittany, France during the Dark Ages. Guy de Sancto Wallerico’s ancestor joined the Normans and invaded England in 1066. In 1128, he is granted lands in south Wales.

(Part 1 of 3) You may say the Walsh surname is not of Irish origin, but Welsh and Norman (from Normandy, France). But now DNA and some recorded history says otherwise. DNA tells us the origin of Walsh is as Irish as they come. The Walsh story [dominated by DNA tribal marker R1b-L513, Subgroup B2] can trace their origins to the Finn Valley in Donegal, Ireland from 50 BCE. Perhaps the journey begins with the Clanna Dedad; Deda, son of Sen or Deda Mac Sin. The Walsh surname origin is from Clan Domnaill [DNA Tribe R1b-L513, Subgroup B1] and relations who remain in Ireland take the modern surname (O’)Donnelly and McDonald in Ireland.

Descendant of Michael Walsh of Ireland.

I have just recently started searching for my family in Ireland. My 5th great grandparents were Owen and Hanonah Dennehy McCarthy could you be any help in where to look

My father, Joseph McCarthy told me that his grandfather - also Joseph McCarthy was born in Lucan County, Ontario in 1854. His father Joe came over from the potato famine/genocide, but back in Ireland the genealogy trail runs dry. The McCarthys of Ontario were involved in the famous Donnelly massacre, and moved very shortly after to Chicago, where my grandfather was born. No-one was ever accused of the crime - everybody hated the Donnellys apparently.

Yes sonny canavan was famous for making bodhran drums and was the best at doing so, in which people from all around the world would travel to Ireland just to get their hands on one. He was also a very very well respected man, he had one glass eye from being shot in the face and would often take it out in the pub to give the locals a fright.

I am a Mccarthy and live in Sheffield. My family are all from Ireland and there's still lots over there I have never met. Not sure where they are all from but I think it's county kerry, listowel, and Dublin.. My great grandfather was a man called sonny canavan. He made drums.

My great grandfather was Johnny the baker from Manchester conn

I have Mary McCarthy born c 1853 in Cork. Immigrated to Queensland, Australia in 1877 with sister, Nora. Mary's marriage certificate states that her parents were Timothy McCarthy and Kate Leary. Can anyone help with information on where they came from and if there were any more siblings.

My family came from Cork. My 5th GreatGrandfather was Timothy McCarthy 1801-1876. His father was Eoghan (Owen) McCarthy 1756-1847 and was married to Hanora Dennehey or Dehahy. These family members were from Claragh, Millstreet, Co. Cork. My family members have been traced to Donal Caomh Reagh MacCarthy Direct ancestor (20 generations) 1240 - 1320 and further back than that.

Don’t know

I’m not sure of anyone

Hi all, Am researching my McCarthy Ancestors on my paternal Grandmothers Mothers side. Who came to India in the mid 1800’s. I do not have their birth or marriage records, still trying to find the same through the British Library which has India records and also on find my past etc. I have records of his children being born - all in India and also his death in India in 1908. He was working as a Chief Guard in the South Indian Railways. It could be him who came to India or his Father before him. The name was Thomas Dever McCarthy. Married Anne Elizabeth Patterson in India. Many many thanks. Regards. Savio Castell.

Her mother was Maggie Richardson born 1887 and her father was Richard Flynn born 1887.Agnes had siblings called: Rose Ann Flynn born 1901, Mary Bridget Flynn born 1904 and married Peter McCaffrey in 1924.Christopher Flynn born 1906, Theresa Patricia Flynn born 1910 and may have married a man named McGeough and lived in Seafield Lawns, Dundalk prior to 1970.She had two children called Mary and Joseph. Agnes Winifred Flynn born October 1912 and Richard Paul Flynn born 1915. All lived in the Faughart, Kilcurry,

I looking for all men named William Wall who had a son namedJames born between 1830 and 1835. When James emigrated to the US he stated that he came from County Kilkenny. His mother's name was Mary surname unknown and his father was William. I have found only one RC record which would match up name and date wise and that is Mary Farrell and William Wall 10 OCT 1827 at Gowran and William's address is Templemartin. A later record shows children named James. Edward and Margaret. Any information that can confirm or deny this connection to James Wall who emigrated to Boston, MA in 1850 would be appreciated. James was my great grandfather. I do have the Wall Genealogy by Hubert Galwey. My aunt was one of the original subscribers to that work. I am guessing that we are descended from the Coolamuck Walls but would love to be able to make definitive connections if I can. Alice

Did you try "The Wall Family in Ireland 1169-1970"

Angela F Cofer My father's [George Pelham Cofer (1912-1979)] mother was Carrie Lou Wall (1880-1974) whose father was Benjamin Franklin Wall (1839-1920) whose father was Thomas J Wall (1810-1864) [all from Wilkes County, Georgia] whose father I found with online research as John W Wall (1780-1863) who was married to Ann Walker (1780-?), both from Ireland, and also his father was John W Wall (dates?). I have not been able to find where where they are from in Ireland and would very much like to find out who my ancestors were.

I was born in London to my Dad John McGrath who was born in Galway (Wood Quay).  His Mother Mary McGrath (who passed away in 2008 at the age of 98) was married to Thomas McGrath who I am named after.  Much of my family still live in Ireland and around Galway.

I am trying to find any McGraths who went to Glasgow or Edinburgh from Waterford/ Carrick on Suir any time after 1890. Or any that served in the Military in those areas.

Hi Cant find anything before our US connections, great grandfather came to VT in the late 1800's James Joseph McGrath, ended up in Jericho, VT farming. I have visited Waterford and saw remains of McGrath's castle and found a priest who was very accommodating with information about that areas McGrath's. Hope to spend more time on this , found a marriage certificate with McGraw instead of McGrath, family lore says boot legging was involved. Haha.

Hiii there... just a shot in the dark, but my brother in law is seeking his father he never met Mr William (Billy) Ferguson McGrath from South Africa. He was the Sales Manager for Electrolux Germiston during 1977. He must be in his seventies now. It was heard last that he moved to Australia with his wife, son and daughter. If you could connect us my email is jaclynsagency@gmail.com

My McGrath ancestor was Andrew McGrath, born 1818 in Galway city Salthill, died Rahoon Parish, Galway, 1883 or 1884. His fathers name was Michael and he was from Moycullen, Galway. Andrew married Julia Judith Hackett 1829-?, daughter of Michael and Catherine Carrol Hackett of Rahoon Parish, Galway. Their oldest son, Michael b. Rahoon parish, 1865 emigrated to the U.S. and settled in the Scranton, PA area to work the coal mines. His sisters Norah and Catherine also emigrated, as well as his brother in law Luke Hackett. Would love to connect with any other McGraths from Galway.

Hi! I am about to marry into the McGrath family! My fiance is from Cork, Ireland. He joined the military while young, his parents passed away, and he never got to know his family history. I was hoping to be able to put together something for him. Id like to know what the official family tartan is, as well as military background. If anyone could help, I would appreciate it. Thanks!

Greetings to all my family out there in the World. Im a member of the Glaswegian branch of the McGrath clan. If any of you knew my grandfather Joe McGrath who lived here in Glasgow until just a few years ago Im sure the rest of the Glasgow Branch would be glad to know they havent been severed from the other branches.

My Great Great Grandfather was Edward OBrien b. 1830 or 1831. He left Ireland and came to Peterborough, Ontario Canada, probably around the 1850s. He married Bridget Heffernan in Peterborough on Feb 15, 1859. Ballyporeen, Tipperary and Cork appear on various documents. His death certificate lists Tipperary as his place of birth. I have found a lot of information on the Heffernans who came to Canada, but nothing about Edward OBrien.

Henry"Harry" Power was born in Waterford 1819/1820. His father is believed to have worked as game-keeper to the Marquis of Waterford, this is where Harry learnt his excellent riding skills, he was always around helping in the stables, they gave him riding lessons and they trusted him with any of the horses. Harry was transported to Tasmania (Van Diemen's Land) Australia in 1842 on the convict ship "Isabella" under the name of Henry Johnson Index number:36754 Record ID: Name_Indexes: 1405820. About 1847 as a free man went to New South Wales, all was good until 2 drunken troopers stopped him and drew on him, from there he was in & out of jail & became a bushranger. He was an excellent horseman and became one of Australia's famous Bush-rangers. He was also mentor to Ned Kelly, teaching him how to ride to avoid the law. There is a look-out in Victoria named after him, Power's Lookout. Harry never killed anyone, he was known as the gentleman bushranger. I cannot find any information of him in Ireland. I believe his mother was Anne McGuire (her maiden name). Harry Power died in Swan Hill, Victoria on the 11/10/1891.

My ancestor was Morgan Power, a farmeryeoman from County Wicklow who was transported to Australia in 1797 for being in possession of 26 stolen sheep. If there are any other known descendants of Morgan in Ireland I would love to hear from you. W. Power.

My Family Tree DNA has placed me as a Breton so Im all over the British Isles. Old Britain and Ireland and France way back when on my Paternal side. Havent Done my Maternal side as yet.My parents were cousins 16 or 17 times removed. They have a common ancestor back in the early 1700s America before it was the USA.

The other possible origin is the de Marisco family who arrived along with the Anglo Norman invasion around the 1170s. I've written a book about it called 'Australians of The Great Irish Famine - one clan's story'. see www.pjmpublications.com.au

Michael Morrissey - born around 1812 or earlier and immigrated to Castle Garden, New York and arrived on May 30, 1836. He reported himself to be from the Parish of Muckalee, Kilkenny, Ireland. He left Dublin and went to Liverpool, England, then sailed to America. He reports that he was a farmer, but I'm leaning towards "laborer". He was illiterate and poor. I have no idea how he was able to come to America, being poor. He sailed on the ship "New Orleans" with no other family member I could see on the passenger list. He was reported to be 22 at the time he came in 1836, but on his naturalization intent in July of 1838, he reported himself to be 23. I'm almost certain he was Roman Catholic. He ended up coming to Indiana soon after arriving because that is where his naturalization intent was recorded, (Tippecanoe, Indiana). He was found in a census in Union, Fulton, Indiana in 1850 and was reported to be 38. He married Jane Mendenhall in Fulton, Indiana. I found a death record of a Michael Morrissey who died in 20 June1861, who was from Ireland and birthdate unknown. He is buried in St Mary's cemetary in Lafayette, Tippecanoe, Indiana.

My great x 3 paternal grand mother was Ellen Morrissey, born in County Kerry, 1841. Her mother was Honora Sullivan, I am unsure of her fathers name. Ellen married James Thomas Keane (B. 1837 County Kerry D. 1918 Temuka, New Zealand) and they immigrated to New Zealand, settling in Temuka. Ellen died in 1878. I have been unable to find anymore information beyond this and would love to make family connections also. Please contact Debi if you can help or may be family- debij.18@gmail.com

This history is incomplete. You say there are 2 possible sources for the name. You list one but not the second.

I am trying to find out information on Alice Whelan born either 1924/1926. Her family was from Dublin and when her parents died Alice and her siblings had to move to Stradbally to live with their relatives. Alice worked as a domestic servant in Stradbally she fell pregnant with me but refused to marry my father. His name i think was David Byrne and he lived in the village pf Timahoe about 1mile from Stradbally. Alice left and came to England where she had me. I was later adopted. Any info on Alice or my Father and his family....2 daughters and 1 son would be most helpful. I wish to add that I have great respect for my birth parents. Thankyou

Felicity Keane Lovell Greetings all. My father was Desmond Keane born 1920 in Killasser Mayo. His father Daniel Keane was from there and married a Lilah O’Keane from Kerry. So I’m a double Keane from my father and Killion from my mother who was from County Roscommon. There’s a great book about Killasser which contains amazing information about a number of my relatives including my great grandfather who was headmaster in the 1870s and who helped many of the local farmers set up a cooperative that took them from great debt to no debt, I was very proud! I was born in England and live there now but was brought up in a traditional Irish catholic family and visited my Irish cousins regularly as a child and since and feel very Irish. We have very dark hair, my sister’s hair is jet black, with pale complexion and green eyes so we look very Irish too.

KEANES OF KILNAMONA Co.CLARE

Crest is WRONG for Keanes of Galway. Sick of hearing about Northern Keanes!

1800's early 1900;s Galway, Ireland

Greetings from a Keane from Co. Kerry, Ireland. I have published a genealogy book that might be of interest to those with links to County Kerry, titled 'From Laois to Kerry'. Its available on Amazon.

(Part 1 of 3) The Keane name has a long history in Ireland, but now DNA and some recorded history says its origin is from the north-west region of the Emerald Island. The Keane story [dominated by DNA tribal marker R1b-L513, Subgroup D2] can trace their beginnings to the Finn Valley in Donegal, Ireland from 50 BCE. Perhaps the journey begins with the Clanna Dedad; Deda, son of Sen or Deda Mac Sin. The Keane surname origin is from the Cenél Conaill [R1b-L513, Subgroup D] who found the Dál Fiatach.

(Part 2 of 3) A group will also found the Kingdom of Ercing in Wales as trade with Romans will become essential around 300 CE. But how could this be? Recent discoveries from DNA testing are unlocking the migration patterns of Celtic tribes as late as 800 CE to 1200 CE. The Keane story begins in pre-history Ireland but this line and many of his kin will move to Wales, then travel to Brittany, France during the Dark Ages.

(Part 3 of 3) Discover their newly found untold story and how forgotten texts bring their story back to life. From the ebook, “The Tribe Within” learn how DNA unfolds this amazing tale and if you look in the right places, how history narrates this evidence. There is another written account of their story, but it is camouflaged in smoke and myth – it will become the tales of King Arthur. Come follow in the footsteps of Deda Mac Sin and visit https://www.smashwords.com/books/view/401207

Greetings to my Matriarchal Tribe. I am trying to learn as much as I can about my tribe, my family, where we came from originally in Ireland and our history. My Grandfather was James Patrick Keane who passed away in March 2011. Growing up in Ohio, he eventually attended the University of Iowa, became a member of the US Navy during World War II and went on to star for the NFL Chicago Bears from 1946-1952. In 1952 he played for the Green Bay Packers. My grandfather lived in Chicago but the rest of the family seems to have been from OhioWest Virginia. Anyone help would be greatly welcome.

Jimmy J - my Phelan's are also from Gornahoe, Tipperary. My g-grandfather was Thomas Phelan married to Bridget Costello of Longfordpass North, Tipperary. I believe his father may have been Richard Phelan. His descendants are still living at the family farm,

I am in search of more information regarding my paternal great great grandfather. I have very little information about him - His name was Thomas Phelan. I know he was married to Jane Stapleton and came over to the USA sometime between 1706 and 1726. He had a son who was also named Thomas Patrick Phelan, born in 1726. If you have any information at all, it would be most appreciated.

William Carew BD 1818, Son of Thomas H Carew and Bridget Darcy

Hi! I am looking for Carew's from Waterford. It appears my great grandfather John Carew joined the RIC in 1847 at the age of 21. If the age on was correct, he would have been born around 1826. He was stationed in Ballyfarnon, Co Roscommon. He married a Jane Phibbs from Ballyfarnon and they had two sons as far as I know. On his service records I see Wat which I'm told stands for Waterford. There are no parents names on record. His eldest son was called Thomas and I can see on the Griffiths valuation there were a number of Thomas Carew renting land in the mid 1800's but can't be sure....Anybody......

Hello I'm looking for my uncle his name is John James born in Galway around 1926. Has 2 brother.

Hello I'm looking for my uncle his name is John James born in Galway around 1926. Has 2 brother.

I descend from Redmond Carey/Carew of Otonabee Township, Peterborough County, Ontario, Canada and he is descended from the Woodinstown, Co. Tipperary. The Woodinstown Carews are related to the family of Lord Carew but are not descended from that line. They have a common ancestor. I've been probing into this Carew family which was centred on Waterford City. Very difficult to figure out their origins. Are they New English settlers from Devonshire who arrived in early Stuart times, or with Cromwell or in his wake. Are they Old English (Norman) settlers with ties to the great English Carews? Are they Gaelic in origin, linked to the Mobarnan Townland, Co. Tipperary? Fascinating questions. Anyone interested in these Carews, I would love to hear from you. My email is johnpaul.bradford@gmail.com

Ellen Carew (gg-gmother) arr. Sydney (AUS) on SIMONDS on 12 April 1855, Botany Bay (departed 13 Jan, Liverpool). Stated parents were Thomas/Mary deceased from Cahir and she was aged 26y. On death cert. father named as Edward Keary. Ellen was aged (on d. cert) 38yrs in 1877. Means that b. 1839. It also states she was 17yrs age on date of marriage (1856) also indicates b. 1839. My grandmother stated Ellen was granddaughter of Lord & Lady Carew.

@P Carew, I'm from Jeremiah's line. How can I contact you?

Hello Wondering wich carews we derive from. My grandfather Jack(john ) carew welsh was born on Catalina island Ca USA. Feb. 13 1913. Carew was his mothers maiden name.

Trying to find out about Jeremiah Carew abt1760 and Julia Quinn, Tipperary co

Hi: I'm looking for Carew ancestors of mine who went to Canada in 1825 with Peter Robinson. They settled in Ennismore, Peterborough. Eventually many of them went to Waupaca County in Wisconsin where they farmed among other things. I grew up in Waupaca Co. and my paternal grandmother's surname was Carew. I would be happy to hear from anyone who may know of my ancestors.

Trying to find any record of birth etc in Tipperary of Redmond Moncrief Carew who was born in 1822 in Tipperary with a believed connection to Woodinston near New Inn. He is believed to have emigrated as a single man to Ottonabee Township,Peterborough County Ontario, Canada ca 1840 He died a Catholic in 1905 with the family name changed to Carey c.a 1860s. It is likely he converted from the Anglican/ Church of Ireland He is buried in St. Peter's cemetary, Peterbrough with his wife Annie Logan. Family folk lore includes belief that he was connected to the Woodinston estate where a ruined Tower house still stands. Lore includes him being a younger son of a a titled family sent with some money with Peter Robinson who brought aprox. 2500 Cathol

I am looking for a DVD of old Waterford to give to my mum as a mothers day present. She left Waterford in the 1950s and I would love to be able to present her with a memento of her childhood. I have searched without success. I appreciate this is probably not the forum for such a request but I would be extremely grateful if someone could even tell me if such a DVD exists and, if so, where it may be purchased from.
