Title: Looking for O'GRADY/MOGGAN/HYNES
Post by: Gensnr on Saturday 04 September 10 04:27 BST (UK)
I am looking for the parents of MALACHI O'GRADY, born abt 1826, Galway. Their names were PATRICK O'GRADY and MARGARET MOGGAN (according to the family search IGI).
I have no other information about them.
He married BEDELIA HYNES (BRIDGET) in abt 1861, in Galway.

I would also like information on her parents who are,JOHN HYNES and CATHLEEN HESSION (according to the IGI)

Any help would be appreciated.  :)

The O'Grady record you mentioned on the IGI is submitted - so would need to be verified first. To search for early parish records you really need to know the family religion and the parish they lived in.

Note : not many RC parishes have records before 1830.

see : Introduction to Irish Records (http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,442233.0.html)

Hi

Great to hear from you.  My grandfather was John Joseph O'Grady who migrated to Australia where he married my gandmother.   His father was Patrick O'grady (born about 1862). Patrick's parents were Malachi O'Grady and Bodelia Hynes. 

Patrick married Mary Glassett (or Glassett) they had many children, my grandfather was one. The other son Ernest died in France about two weeks before the end of the war.  Mary died at the age of 33 (probably after having so many children).  Patrick remarried and had four more children.

It seems as though we come from the same family, where do you live.

I have just started researching my family, it is facination, especially my grandmother's family, there are a few skeletons there.  I would be grateful to see any details you may have.

Thanks for you response.  Lea

Hello,
You can add some more relatives to the list, I am the GG Grandaughter of Patrick O'Grady & Mary Glassett, there is also another descendant I know of that lives in Sydney. I live in North Queensland & would love to keep in touch. I have quite a bit of the background of some of the family.
Warm regards Chris  :)

Hi   

Good to hear from you, what branch of the family do you come from, I did not know much about my grandfather's family except that he came from New Zealand and I knew one great aunt, Muriel, that used to visit us. 

I would love to get in touch.  I live in Sancturary Point, which is south of Sydney, near Nowra. 

Would you love to have a good talk to your grandparents about their history.

Would like to hear from you. 

Lea

Hi Lea,
My G Grandmother was Eileen Mary O'Grady Muriel's sister. She married Charles Edward Brown in NewZealand. My grandmother Kathleen Lauretta Brown went to school in Melbourne and married Lesley Arnold Moon. I to met Muriel when I was a small child.
I would love to keep in touch with all on this chat site as it appears we are all related. Funnily I never heard that there were any other members of the family living in Australia.
Regards Chris

Hi

Isn't it funny, my mother's name was Eileen.  maybe named after your grandmother.  I only knew that my Grandfather and is sister Muriel lived in Australia.  My mother did not say much about my grandfather's family except that he was born in New Zealand.  I have a photo of Muriel and one of her sisters, don't know which one. 

The whole family thing is facinating, I never knew that my G/g father was Scottish and his father was a ship captain until I started doing my research.  (This is on my G/M side), her family is facinating, convicts, women who had a number of relationship and a number of children and a death at sea.

It is amaging how much time it takes up

Hi Again,

RE: John & Cathleen/Kathleen (nee Hession) Hynes children
NOTE: My main files are in storage at the moment, so use this as a guide.

1. Timothy Hynes
b: c 1831 Galway, Ireland  m: c 1858, Ireland  d: Friday 10th August, 1888, Milton, 57 yrs  "Mr Timothy Hynes an old settler on the Plain, who for a long time occupied one of the farms in the Municipal Reserve in Fairfax, died on Friday morning after a week's illness of bronchitis and was buried yesterday afternoon at Fairfax Cemetery" 14th August, 1888 - Bruce Herald. I have no info on Mary McTigue. They had 7 children?

2. John Hynes
b: 1838, Ireland  m: ? Margaret Doyle, Ireland d: possibly 1919 at 80 yrs 2 children is all I have, most likely more.

3. Philip Hynes
b: c 1839, Ireland  m: ? Cecilia Duggan  d: 1919 in Milton, NZ 80yrs 6 children

4. Bedelia (Bridget) Hynes
b: c 1839, Ireland  m: 1861 Malachi O'Grady  d: 1 May, 1922, Christchurch, NZ 8 children

5. Michael Hynes
b: c 1845, Ireland  m: Honor (Honora) Mahone 5th June, 1866, Dunedin, NZ 6 children

Timothy and Michael were listed as goldminers in Tuapeka, Otago in Oct, 1861. The other brothers may have worked in the same field at some stage.

Enjoy!

Post by: mrs magoo on Monday 29 August 11 21:35 BST (UK)
Awesome thankyou for this, i now have 3 ggg and g grandfathers who were goldminers, one went to Alaska goldfields and grew up in Milton otago too, he might have even known the hynes family, both would connect in my family along the generations.

another is on my husbands side he went to the same place as another of my great grandfather, in Thames nz isn't it amazing.

both mum and dads families practically were side by side as well as my husbands and dads side again, it's very eerie

Hi all,

Regarding the above message - I don't think that's our Hynes as John according to those dates would have been born c1786. Also the fact that Timothy and Philip Hynes went to New Zealand from Scotland on the ship "Storm Cloud".

This is great, thanks to everyone for the info so far,

 Patrick McTigue is definately Mary Hynes nee McTigues brother, there was also a sister Sabina McTigue who married a John Athy, and a sister Bridget McTigue who married James McLean, all living in Fairfax, NZ.

I am trying to find out more about Patrick McTigue and his wife Winifred O'Grady. Not sure where she fits in to the O'Grady family, but would love to find out. Patrick and Winifred had 9 children, James, Thomas, Ellen, James (again) Margaret, John, Michael, Malachi and Winifred.

Hope someone can help   :)

His son Thomas married Ellen Kilgarriff, son James married Elizabeth Leslie,son John married Florence McMillan, son Michael died at 18 and Malachi married Mary Dimond.

Not sure if this is helpful for you, hope so :)

Hi there,

I don't know whether you guys are aware or not but the marriage of Malachy O'Grady and Bridget (Delia) Hynes is on roots ireland.

They married in 1859 in Lackagh RC Church Galway.

Just found some more:

In 1860 in Lackagh RC Church Galway Ireland a M O'Grady and a Bridget (Delia) Hynes baptised a daughter called Margaret.

She may have passed away as I didn't see her mentioned in your messages.

As Malachy's mother was called Margaret, this would tie in.

Lackagh Church records don't go back as far as some and I have been told that sometimes there are names etc missing off them BUT I did see the last of John Hynes and  CATHERINE Hession's children getting baptised there.

It was Michael Hynes and he was baptised in Lackagh RC Church in 1843.

Sorry,

No I didn't,

Baptism pre 1840 can be SUPER tricky to find but the fact that the family baptised Michael there is a good indicator that all the family were baptised there.

Lackagh is pronounced LAK......AHHH

Hi, I am interested in your information but am not sure I am reading it correctly.
I presume the dates prior to the Rev. in each case are the dates of Baptism.? Do you have the dates they were born please.?
As regards Patrick O'Grady. He was born 17 March 1864, Galway, Ireland
Died 15 November 1922, Wanganui?, New Zealand. (Haven't been able to confirm Wanganui)
That may be of some help to you.
