Hi Trudi,
I can give you the full history of the Cordial family since i am the g.g.g grandson of sarah mary cordial. She was born in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada and her family moved to Clare Galway circa 1840's. She married Thomas Dowling, a police constable and they moved to Dudley, then to Liverpool.
How are you related?

Hi Brian,
That's different ... immigrants to Ireland in the mid 1800s 8) Most people tend to talk about emigrants.
I wonder if there are any published figures available for the number of immigrants during that period.

Hi Chris,
Don't think it was a question of immigration into Ireland, as Sarah Marys father was a sergeant in the Rifle Brigade and he was born in Longford and the children were born all over the world e.g. Malta etc and when he was discharged he returned to Ireland. Why he chose Clare Galway I don't know as he was the only Cordial in the whole of Co. Galway.

Hi Trudy,
My mother Frances remembers her aunt Sarah Peabody and had visited her home on many occasions. I have a full history of all of Sarah mary Cordials children and of their lines to the present day. If you want a 32 page listing of them all please send me your cousins address and I will post it out to them.

Hi trudi,
Should have mentioned before. Have a look on page 3 of the Galway section here. This relates to my request for info on the Cordials in Feb 2005

Hi Trudi,
Could you find out the other children's names and dob etc of Sarah & Peter Peabody. Sarah was married before to a Peter Littler and had one child , who died shortly after birth. Any info your cousin has would be useful.

Hi Brian
I am attempting to do a family tree and came across this thread. Ellen Hennelly (maiden name Peabody) was my Nan's Mother. If you have any info that you could give me I would really appreciate it.
Thanks

Hi Brian
I have recently started a family tree and it looks like Sarah Mary Cordial may be my Great great great Grandmother. Her daughter Sarah Dowling married Peter Peabody and their daughter Ellen is my Grandmother Sarah's Mother. I hope that makes sense :) I would really appreciate any information that you could give me about the Cordials/Dowlings.
Thanks

Hi Jacey
You don't happen to have a photo of Sarah Peabody do you? I have most of the photos of the rest of her brothers and sister but not of her. Would also like to get any of her childrens line.
