:D Hi.. I am looking for anyone who shares common ground so to speak with these names:
Ryan, Kevin, O' Dwyer, Sullivan, Walsh, Grant, Gleeson and Woodlock. All these names originated from County Tipperary, Ireland but alot of people with those surnames moved away to England, America and Australia. Anyone with interest in those last names, please contact me.
Thank you
-
Annie, you might like to put your surnames on the Surname Interests page ... click the 'Surname' link at the very top of this page and go from there ...
Also, there are pages for Ireland ... have you seen those ?
There's a Tipperary page ...

I had a look at the pages from Ireland but none of them have any names that I am searching for unfortuantley.
Thanks anyway

Hi,
:D
Noticed you have Grant and Ryan on your tree. I am having massive problems with my Manchester Grants who originally came from Ireland (still trying to pin down whereabouts in Ireland but I have leads in Forkhill, Armagh and Kilkenny).
I also have Ryan but am not 100% as to whether the Grant-Ryan marriage certificate I have is actually "mine".

Hi Luzzu,
My Grants and Ryan's came from Tipperary, Ireland. What information do you have on the Grant-Ryan Cert because my great grandmother was a Grant and she married a Ryan here in Ireland.
Cheers

Hi,
:)
The details on the Grant/Ryan marriage certificate are:-
11 Feb 1854
Patrick Grant, age 28 years, widower, labourer, Back Ford Lane, Pendleton, John Grant, labourer;
Mary Ryan, age 19 years, spinster, -, Back Ford Lane, Pendleton, Michael Ryan (deceased), miller;
Married in the Cathedral Church of St John the Evangelist, Salford according to the Rites and Ceremonies of the Catholic Church;
The X of Patrick Grant
Mary Ryan
in the presence of
Jame Ryan
The X of Ann Ryan
I also have a birth certificate for Michael Grant as follows:-
19 Nov 1854
Lucas Terrace, Pendleton,
Michael, boy, Patrick Grant, Mary Grant formerly Ryan, labourer, x the mark of Mary Grant, mother, Lucas Terrace, Pendleton, registered 30 Dec 1854
I can PM you with lots more information about "my" Grants in Manchester if you think there might be a connection. I am in a muddle and have quite a few brickwalls at the moment though.
Hope there is a connection. I could really do with some help. ::)

Re Grants in Tipperary, have a look at this page
http://www.grantonline.com/grant-family-genealogy/Tipperary/google-map.htm
which is an interactive map of Tipperary, with the various Grants I have found. You can zoom & pan on the map
Do you know anything about where your grandmother lived in Moyglass or around. Perhaps she was descended from Edward Grant that appears in Griffiths in Killenaule

I haven't gone back too far yet on the Walshes, as far as I know they are from Clonmel butm Thurles is not far away. The Sullivans again I am not sure, I have them all named in a will that ws made by Michael Grady/Keiff who emigated to PA. As far as I know he hailed from Cork. It is difficult to stay focused as different names keep cropping up to send you on another line of thought. I do know for definite that these all belong somewhere in the family as I have letters to my grandfather regarding the will. Hopefully the link will be apparent pretty soon.
good luck everyone
Ancilla
