I am trying to find any information about Thomas Tinsley McNeill who was born in Clonmel c1814. According to the census he was married to Mary Ann who originated from Dover, Kent. They had several children in Clonmel - Benjamin c1835, William c1840, Thomas c1842 and Malcolm c1848 - before settling in Bristol, where John was born in April 1848.
Any information about this family would be very much appreciated.
Many Thanks,
Katerina

I'm not sure as to whether you will receive my pm Maureen. I was wondering whether you have details of Thomas T McNeill's birth / parents, or a marriage please? I have details of children from this marriage, obtained originally from the different census.
Many Thanks,
Katerina

Mary Jane b.1851 Bristol Sarah Ann b.1854 Bristol Charles b.1856 Bristol
I am a descendant of John but no records are available to go any further back as
a fire destroyed many records. Anything else I can help with I will
Regards Maureen Who do you descend from?
-
Thank you for your reply Maureen. Was it a fire in Clonmel which destroyed the records we need?
I descend from John's sister - Mary Jane McNeill.
-
The fire referred to is probably the one in the Public Records Office at the Four Courts in Dublin during the Civil War in 1922.
This destroyed many early census details, and Church of Ireland records. Catholic records were not deposited in the PRO so were not effected.

Dear Katerina and Maureen,
I am also a descendant of Thomas Tinsley McNeill through his son John (1848-1914) and grandson Joseph Patrick (1884-1941). I would be very interested in getting in touch and have some limited information about Thomas' parents.
I hope this thread is still active and that you are still members.
Hoping to hear from you soon,
John Carl McNeill
