Re: Thomas J. Madigan, Sergeant Major U.S. Army, born in Kilrush
I have started reading this thread very, very late to the game, and I am only on page 1 of the postings. You all may be far past this point in the research still needed, but I would be remiss not to mention the resource I found so useful when researching Manitowoc County WI for the Co. Clare immigra...

Re: Information is wanted of Thomas McNamara, of Glandree,
Sheila & Jimbo, We have come full circle with the John McNamara civil registration deaths, in terms of your prior discussion here: http://www.ourlibrary.ca/phpbb2/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=7343&p=14671&hilit=teeronea&sid=8280ddf3ab7d3e97bdbba4f7e40d1deb#p14671 That thread started out with John McNamara of...

Re: Need suggestions on where to publish an article
Sheila, very timely comments, thanks. Also, it's a source of joy and positivity that we have the Forum to communicate our interests and encouragement to do more in bringing forward into 2024 the very foggy past of Clare. We follow in the footsteps of T.J. Westropp, Ignatius Murphy, and Gerard Madden...

Updated Library database, Clare-born U.S. Civil War soldiers
A long time since the last update (due to my own scheduling matters), I submitted to the Clare County Library the latest new group of 10 soldiers now added to the Donated Materials section of the Library's website, under "Military...Records." That database has this direct link: https://www.clarelibr...

Canadian historic newspapers, Montreal findings for Clare-born
I realize this subject is not on most Clare family historians' radar, but I keep an eye out for sources that cover the 1800s era of Montreal, Province of Quebec, Canada. During the time-out recently of this Forum, I dug deeper into a source used in 2020 for death notices of Clare-born in that city, ...

Re: Where is Cahirneen?
I fully agree with Sheila's comments. I also saw the Mary Considine baptism in 1886, with parents Thomas & Mary, then in "Ballymullqueeney" - note the longer townland spelling no longer in use. While Cahirneen may be a corruption of Cahircuneen, also note the several townlands fairly nearby in the E...

Re: Information is wanted of Thomas McNamara, of Glandree,
There are some information sources, which if not really needed at this point for Jimbo's conclusions about Church of Ireland structures in Tulla, nonetheless should get known as existing online, accessible with the right search terms. I went this general route back in 2014 while researching what bec...

Re: Quinlivan of Ballyroughan
All right, Sheila - adding here the 1880 will is a valiant attempt to augment Quinlivan data on the Forum. I won't try to tie in the mentioned people just now to anyone, but that "Augustine Quinlivan" at the very end, taken with Sr. Mary Augustine of the Ennis convent for which I provided a death re...

Re: Quinlivan of Ballyroughan
Margaret, I respond to your Dec. 6th posting, as Jimbo and Sheila are likely deep into further work involving the Garruragh-located Quinlivans, many of whom relocated to Australia (see their findings, posted on screens/pages 52 & 53 of the McNamara thread referenced by Jimbo above in his reply post ...

Re: Information is wanted of Thomas McNamara, of Glandree,
Sorry that I could not be of more help at this stage of the Garruragh discussion, but I was off around the country to enjoy the last of the good weather, with only 2 days back at home between my jaunts. Now back longterm with my efiles, I see I have some Quinlivan obituaries for the U.S., if anyone ...

Re: Information is wanted of Thomas McNamara, of Glandree,
On Nov. 29th, Sheila posted as much as she had on hand, in timeline fashion, to reflect on matters revolving around the Tulla institutional approach to later-years distress during what we view as the Great Famine. She noted a need for additional info: Thur 5 Dec 1850: page 3: Tulla Union. Appointmen...

Sheila, Another reply posting, this time concerning remarks you made Oct. 22nd: The surname, Walker, reminds me of the post by Sharon Carberry on page 2 of this thread, in particular the 1850 NYC census showing Anne Walker, aged 23, Michael Walker (b.

Re: Question about interpreting baptism records and Electoral lists
My interest in Clune mainly relates to the Parish of Quin-Clooney, but I can make a few observations that may be helpful although don't consider this a definitive answer. In the area of Sixmilebridge/Feenagh in the first half of the 1800s, the Frost men were not the farming type, but rather were gen...
