I'm looking for the family of Mary Fleming. She married William Ryan in County Limerick around 1840. Their first child, Margaret Esther Ryan, was born in Coppamorrow in 1843. I believe that their second child Anna Ryan was also born in County Limerick.
Mary's parents may have been Mathew and Margaret. If anyone could assist me I would be very appreciate.
Thank you,

Dear Jack 49,
My family may be related to yours.
Philip Fleming born approx 1800 married Hannah Coghlan in about 1830 and had six sons- Timothy 1831, Patrick 1833, Cornelius 1834, James 1835, Thomas 1841 and Martin 1842.
All lived around Abington, Cappamore, Murroe. All six sons came to Australia from 1856.
I think Philip was a tenant farmer for Lord Barrington at Glenstal Estate.
You are the first flemings I've found from near limerick so chances are that we are related.
Let me know if this helps. any info gratefully received.
Regards,
Flemmo

re:-Margory Fleming---(her first name may have been spelled
the wrong way from evidence on my research i do not think
my ggg-gfather could spell so at the time it would have been
the local registrar who would spell the name for him.

Michael,
Unfortunately I can't add very much. My Mary Fleming was born in 1819 and I assume in County Limerick since her oldest daughter was born in Coppamorrow in 1843. It's possible that she could have been an older sister of your Margory, but at this point I don't even have the names of Mary's parents.
Good luck with your search.

Christopher and Jack,
My ancestors were RC. Can you tell me Jack is Cappamorrow the same place as Cappamore? If so our people came from the same area. My wife and i are planning a visit to Ireland, especially Limerick, mid 2009 (our two kids will be over there too).
Can't wait.
Regards,
Flemmo
