Re: Inishcaltra Parish in Griffiths Valuation
Thanks Sheila for that very informative post. My connection to the Buglers is with Patrick Bugler(1892-1964) who married Teresia McInerney, a first cousin of my father. Patrick was a son of Patrick Bugler and Margaret Crotty of Kilrateera Lower. In the 1901 census all the family except Margaret gave...

Re: Inishcaltra Parish in Griffiths Valuation
Thanks Sheila, that explains it. Re the reason for the change I found this at https://www.loc.gov/rr/geogmap/pdf/irish/appendix.pdf The purpose of the legislation was to reform and consolidate several mutually independent local government authorities into one centralized county administration, the C...

Inishcaltra Parish in Griffiths Valuation
Does anyone know why the Griffiths Valuation records for the Parish of Inishcaltra on askaboutireland.ie are allocated to County Galway rather than County Clare?

Re: Researching Family of Andrew Donnellan and Mary Connole
I agree with Sheila's comment re the transcriptions. We continually make the point that the transcriptions should not be regarded as a primary information source. They are not, and on all occasions researchers are advised to refer back to the parish registers on microfilm. But the transcriptions are...

Re: Researching Family of Andrew Donnellan and Mary Connole
Hi Deirdre With your local knowledge of the area are you able to retreive the EIRcode of the Donnellan residence in Gortaficka? I have been trying to pinpoint the location of the two adjacent properties that you describe, but it's all a bit obscure on the Griffiths Valuation maps. I'm sure the EIRco...

Re: Researching Family of Andrew Donnellan and Mary Connole
Hi Phil, and welcome to this forum Sheila wrote in part: Andrew's wife Mary (nee Conole) died in 1900, aged 75 - the person who reported the death was Andrew: https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/ ... 626549.pdf. I've failed to find the death of Andrew, but he's not in the 1901 census. There is al...

Re: counihan family limerick
Hi Matthew One of my McInerney cousins was married to Gerald M Counahan, who was the Galway County Registrar. He died in July 2, 1959, and I realise this may be a generation or so from your focus. But there is a report of his funeral on the front page of the Connacht Sentinel of 7 Jul 1959, and I ha...

Re: Drumcliff Marriages 1837-1880
Sheila wrote And there was a disappointment with the witnesses as well: one James Morrissy appears so often that I think he must have been the parish clerk. You are correct Sheila, James was indeed the Parish Clerk. James married Ellen O'Driscoll in 1864, and on the birth certificate of his daughter...

Re: Info wanted for: Knoc(k)agarrane, Rooskamore, Ballyinchinmore
Hi Sheila Yes, Pat was the son of Charles and Kate. Just shows that you should be careful not to read too much into these records. It also highlights the usefulness of having the transcripts in spreadsheet format where such errors can be more readily identified. Your labour of love is so valuable. I...

Re: Info wanted for: Knoc(k)agarrane, Rooskamore, Ballyinchinmore
Hi Sheila Having studied the various records for this Callinan family over a number of years I remain convinced that the 1858 marriage between Charles Callinan and Catherine Reidy is a transcription error, it should be Catherine Murrihy. I have found no evidence to confirm they were two separate cou...

Re: Info wanted for: Knoc(k)agarrane, Rooskamore, Ballyinchinmore
Thanks for that Sheila I must confess that I did notice that these entries were in the Burren Barony but it just didn't register because I have little familiarity with the layout of Clare baronies. So I guess the bottom line is that I scratch the 1821 and 1829 listings. But that doesn't detract from...
