Re: Looking for Information - Thomas Landers & Bridget Clear
Hi Lucille and Paddy, I cannot express enough our pleasure at hearing that the revaluation books are no longer able to be photocopied but are now to be photographed only. We were horrified when we visited last in 2014 and saw many visitors forcing the books down on to the photocopiers and pressing t...

Evictions in Meelick 1850
I am looking through the British Newspaper Archives which are free to search via the National Library of Australia for any Australian's who hold a NLA Library card and came across this, which may be of interest to you. Evictions in Meelick. Freeman's Journal and Daily Commercial Advertiser (Dublin, ...

Re: Bolands die of starvation, 1848
Thank you Polycarp and Paddy for the update on the availability of Inquest records. I agree Paddy, I remain the supreme optimist and eagerly look forward to the day when someone locates that missing box of records relating to my missing ancestors. We are returning once more in September and plan to ...

Re: Bolands die of starvation, 1848
Paddy your post raises an issue that I have wondered about many times and that is whether Inquest records are held in a repository in Ireland. Ours are held in our Public Records Office here in Victoria and have been indexed. Are you, or any other forum members, aware of the location of inquest reco...

Re: Wife's name on Records after marriage
Hi Bob I can't guarantee that all wives were recorded by their maiden names in church records, but I have found that it certainly was very common, and when both husband and wife were sponsors there is usually no indication that they were husband and wife. But the early Rath-Kilnaboy records are in ...

Wife's name on Records after marriage
While looking at the Milltown Malbray Parish census for 1839, I noted that all wives are recorded by their maiden/birth names and not by their married names. Does this same pattern exist in all Catholic Church records of recording all witness and sponsor females by their maiden names? If so, then I ...

Re: Michael Cusack and Bridget Morgan
Hi Laura, Further to my earlier contact with you, just wondering whether you found anything further on your Morgan family from Rynogonaut. Also, yes, I have just done my DNA with Ancestry and posted the results on Gedmatch as well. I look forward with great anticipation to being inundated with notif...

Michael Cusack and Bridget Morgan
Found - Michael Cusack and Bridget Morgan. Further to my previous posts searching for this couple, my great great grandparents, I discovered their marriage entry for February 1846 in the Parish Registers of Kilkee. They were residing at Rynogonaut on the west coast at the time. I also located in the...

Re: Michael CUSACK c1820 County Clare
Further to my earlier posts in search of Michael Cusack I have been searching all parish record films at the Local Studies Centre, Ennis and have located a baptism for James, the third child of Michael Cusack and Bridget Morgan on 24 March 1855 in the parish of Kilmurry Ibricken. No townland was rec...

Thank you for the link to the magazine. Yet another great bit of historical information available at the Clare Library.

Re: Michael CUSACK c1820 County Clare
Thank you for the photo and Morgan information, Michael. Does the Ennistymon magazine information back into the 1800's and is it available to view at the Clare Library?

Re: Michael CUSACK c1820 County Clare
I attended at the Ennistymon Parish office and viewed the parish registers. The only records were the baptism of Roger Morgan in 1822 and Roger as a sponsor at two baptisms in 1823 and 1825. As you suggest, it appears Bridget Morgan may lived somewhere else. Thank you for highlighting the possible v...

Re: Michael CUSACK c1820 County Clare
Thank you for taking an interest in my brickwall and for your suggestions. Over ten years ago I thought Roger Morgan would be easy to find. Since then I have found reference to six. The County Clare Library List of Freeholders (including landlords and tenants) Co. Clare 1821 has an entry for Roger M...

Re: Michael CUSACK c1820 County Clare
Thank you Lucille for your interest and reply. Unfortunately the Roger Morgan at Tonlegee was a blacksmith and not a farmer. He married Mary Hallinan in 1844, had family, and died in 1888. John Cusack travelled to Australia in 1867 with no other family members so I looked no further on that ship. Th...

Michael CUSACK c1820 County Clare
My great great grandfather was Michael Cusack, (farmer) who married Bridget Morgan (c1825). Bridget’s parents were Roger Morgan, (farmer) and Ellen Cahill. Bridget migrated to Australia in 1869 with two of her three children, Catherine (1855) and James (1856). They joined John (1851) who arrived in ...
