Sorry. When I read your kind offer yesterday got all excited thinking I might finally track down my family.

Hello
I note that you have a one surname study.
I am looking for BRIGLEY family that originated in DUBLIN.
[The English census alternatively lists one of this family as BIGLEY but this would seem to be erroneous as other documents, including a marriage certificate, state BRIGLEY.]
The family in question has the head of household as SIMON PAYNE BRIGLEY. He is married to CHARLOTTE BRIGLEY.
Their children include CHARLOTTE who married JOSEPH MARSHALL and they have a child BERTHA MARSHALL.
IRELAND is given as the birthplace, and DUBLIN in most of the records, although Bertha is given alternatively as having been born in Lancashire, Manchester.
I know this is somewhat confusing to say the least.
Then there is ARTHUR BRIGLEY [aka BIGLEY] who married my aunt - ARABELLA IMISON, and their son is called CECIL GORE BRIGLEY and was born about 1894/5, aged 6 in the 1901 English census.
If you have any information to throw light on this side of the water, I would be most grateful.
Best wishes

Good Morning,
I am William Brigley from North Bay, On, Canada. Originally from Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada I found my family originated from Ireland, then some moved to England before migrating to Canada, and some later spread across Canada and to parts of the US. I too became curious about the Brigley names heritage, so I started a family website (http://s3.invisionfree.com/Our_Family_Tree)
Since that time I came in contact with Zoe Brigley from England. Though a very busy & successful individual, she has found the time to let me know she does have archives that connect to the one I have posted on my site, and predates it back to Dublin, Ireland.
I am sure once she finds the time to either mail me the archive (as I sent a copy of mine to her), or posts it on the site, we may find the information your looking for regarding Cecil Gore Brigley & others. As well I believe the name Brigley originated from Bigley because that is the closest family crest in Ireland related to our name. (If Zoe's information about our origin is correct. Your welcome to browse my site, and keep an eye out for your info. If she mail's it to me, I will most curtainly upload it to the site for a family members to view.

Hello

thanks Imison - unfortunately I'm focused on the ones that stayed in Dublin - trying to get back beyond 1841 to try and prove a link to a group of Dublin Nilands that emigrated to Australia aboard the "Joseph Cunard". This batch were coopers who had worked at Guinness; my Nilands were also Coopers who worked at Guinness.

Dear Simon
I have just checked the LDS website and found that there are several people who MIGHT fit the bill so to speak.
It might help you to see if they are there - but then again you might already have looked.
Good luck
Imison

Imison,
I can't see anyone on the LDS website who might fit the bill. Can you clarify what you searched for?
Thanks,
Simon

Also, I have found that Anne Bowden was living at Leeson Place and not Lance Place at the time of her marriage. I don't know if that will make any difference though.
Cheers,
Simon

Dear Simon
I have returned to the LDS site. If you enter IRELAND, ANNE BODEN you get many more respones [with exact spelling OFF] than if you put IRELAND, ANNE BOWDEN.
If you put a simple search IRELAND, BODEN you get many variants too.
If you can find who her husband was that might help too.
There are a couple of people in the English censuses called ANNE BOWDEN who were born in Ireland. However, as these were MARRIED it is not likely that they are the person you are seeking.

Anne and Joseph had their first child Samuel Patrick Frith in Sheffield, England in 1848.

Hi Catherine,
I'm trying to find a supposed connection ( family story) between the branch of my tree in West Yorks and BLACKROCK in DUBLIN. Unfortunately, this would be in late 1700's/early 1800's so goes back to the time when it's very difficult to research Irish ancestors.

Hiya Jill,
Unless I am mistaken you appear to be looking for living people named Sykes or France in Blackrock, Co. Dublin. That would be a great help as they would be on the spot and may also searching for ancestors. The local library may be able to give you a little bit of assistance http://www.dlrcoco.ie/library/br.htm
Here is another possible source of assistance (it was posted on the RootsWeb boards in 1997. I do not know if Mr Merrigan is still at the same address. Mention the Society in your message to the library as one of the librarians may know of him.

Hiya Kathie,
I am not sure if you want to find your great grandparents or some of the 12 children of your grandparents or a combination of both. If you are trying to find some of those 12 children a search through old newspapers about the time of their death may reveal some information about them.

Hello Catherine,
Am trying to trace my Gt Grandfather, Joseph Eakins, who was born in Kingstown, Dublin, circa 1870s. His father, a John Eakins, was a "Spirit Merchant" in Dublin - but no details of his mother, or address.

Hi Catherine,
Would you have any information on Marchbank in Dublin. I have several generations of Robert Marchbank - printers, valuation data and the odd marriage, but no proof of descent, although I have hundreds of pages of internet details on the various Roberts.
I am tracing back 2 (possibly 3) Marchbank brothers, all printer/compositors who came to England in the 1840/50s, Alexander and Robert - so it is a fair assumption that they are sons of the Robert Marchbank - printer of Dublin.
Any information gratefully received.

Dear Audrey,
Thank you so much for tracing Joseph's birth date - this means so much to me as I can now build up his mum and dad's history! :D

Am truly indebted - thanks again.

Wow, thanks Audrey
So looks like our Joseph had a brother, John. Intrigued why their surnames would have been spelt differently - would this have been an alternative way of spelling it?
The address is intruiging too Audrey - 1006 Dublin - not familiar with the layout of Dublin, but would this have been some sort of numbering for streets, bit like the way they refer to them in the States?
Yours most grateful
McV
-
the mistake on the name could be down to the transcriber or that the records were poor and was difficult to read I find this a lot with Irish look ups as for the address I am sorry I haven't a clue

Thanks Audrey - makes sense about the spelling but too much of a coincidence to have the same parents and same sounding surname!
I will try to find out about the street numbering - will get bakc to you>

Hiya McVitie,
Eakins. That was the surname of the branch manager of the insurance company, in Belfast, where I started work in 1957 after leaving school.
Chris
-
Hello Chris,
I wonder if they're related. My nan Eileen left Belfast in the 1920s and moved to Cambridgeshire, and I recall her sister Mary moved to Staffordshire around just after. But certainly their brothers William and Joseph stayed in Belfast, but I haven't got round to documenting the names of their children....but you never know! Do you recall the christian name?
Eakins isn't that common, which does help my research somewhat!
Cheers
McVitie
-
Hello McVitie,
I sent you a PM. A brother William...the man I mentioned..his initials were W.D. I think his first name was William. He was slightly older than my Dad who was born in 1909. I dont know how much older..it might have been ten years at the most.

Looking for John Joseph Otoole born 1879 in Dublin. His father was Francis Partick Otoole and a RSM with the Tyneside Irish in WW1. I have JJ Otoole's army record but know little about his mother.

Hiya Lynne,
You mention no dates so here are some Nugents from the City of Dublin Directory of 1850. http://www.dublin1850.com/dublin1850/xdubdir65.html#Nugent
One or two people are searching for Nugent ancestors on another site. If you contanct them tell them about RootsChat please http://genforum.genealogy.com/cgi-bin/search.cgi?forum=ireland%2Fdublin&url=%2Fireland%2Fdublin%2F&path=%2Fireland%2Fdublin%2F&terms=Nugent&boolean=AND Do you have any Christian names for your Nugents Lynne or just a surname. Any dates? I noticed one of the messages on the above site mentions an Andrew getting married at Donnybrook in 1885. Here's another site enabling you to search for Nugents. http://www.familysearch.org You can search this site using a Christian name only. Christian names may enable you to do a more accurate search though.
Best Wishes, Christopher

Hi Catherine
Thank you for offering your time — much appreciated.
I would like any info you can find on Thomas Fennessy (? b before 1826) and Mary Ann or Marianne Cleary b 1830/31. I don't know where either was born but they married in 1847 at the Kildare registry office — he was a protestant and she was a catholic. They were in Tipperary when my g grandmother Kate was born in 1853 (siblings Mary, Hubert, John James and Charlotte Ann), and then moved to Cork where (I think) Thomas became the railway superintendant.
I know Mary Ann's father was a farmer named John Cleary who died before 1847.
I'm especially interested in Mary Ann's mother as she is my direct matrilineal line.
Not much to go on, but anything you can find would be great.
Cheers, Rian.

Hi Rory
my auntie Collette (nee Kavanagh) was married to Kevin Gaffney. They lived in Dublin 4, Irishtown and Ringsend. The Gaffney family is very large there, I know that Kevins mother married twice and between the two families they had 24 children !! a lot of them are still there. Kevins mother lived until she was 102 and was reported in the Independant newspaper. Which names are you looking for and I will ask my aunt and my mother who also knows them very well. Maybe a shot in the dark but you never know !

Carol,
My Wife's mother was Mary Kavanagh (nee Gaffney) 1923 - 2002 and she lived in Tolka Cottages, Old Finglas Road, in Dublin. Mary's father Patrick Gaffney 1901 - 1992, his father was also Patrick (1866-1946) born in Watling Street and lived in Kileek North Dublin. His father was James (1834 - bef 1901). My wife says that she thinks she has some Gaffney relatives living in North Wall and Irishtown/Ringsend but doesn't know any of their names. Does this make any sense to you or can you make any connections.

Carol,
Gaffney is my wife's mothers maiden name. She was Mary Kavanagh nee Gaffney 1923 - 2002 from the Old Finglas Road, her father was Patrick Gaffney 1901-1992 also from the Old Finglas Road. His father was Patrick 1866 - 1946 died in Kileek, N Dublin. His father was James also from Kileek 1934 - bef 1901. My wife remembers talk of relatives from Ringsend and North Wall area but doesn't know any details. Could there be a connection with yours, if so I have a good deal of info that I can share with you if you're interested. I would also welcome any info you might have for me.

Hi Rory
sorry for the delay. I dont know if there is a definite connection between your Gaffneys and my Aunts, but feel that if your wife remembers relatives living in the Ringsend/Irishtown part of Dublin that they would more than likely be related to the Gaffneys there now. I am not personally researching the name Gaffney, but I will try and find out as much as I can from my Aunt and Mother, they both grew up with the Gaffneys. I will talk to them at the weekend and forward any information I have. A couple of things, there is a community newspaper which is well worth searching through the archives on line that is www.news4.ie
I feel like a big advert for this paper as I have told so many people about it ! It is a very good source of information for the areas of Ringsend/Irishtown and Sandymount, often showing old photos and printing letters from readers. I have come across the Gaffney family in there many times. Also another name associated with the Gaffney family is Egan. One of the Egan boys was a heavyweight boxer who is friends with Mike Tyson, the two of them appear in one of news 4 editions. The Egans are cousins to the Gaffneys.
I will let you know as soon as I talk to them and send any information on.

Cog,
The Gaffney's were all associated with boxing. Jackie Gaffney (just recently deceased) represented Ireland in boxing in the 1930's and my wife's grandfather and brothers were all into boxing. Could be a connection. Will wait until u speak to yoour relatives.

Hi Tory
sorry for delay, I have not forgotton about you,
I am waiting for my aunt (Gaffney) to return from
her travels in Wexford. She is due back this week
so I can find out more for you. One little bit I
got from my mom was my aunts mother in law
was named Molly Gaffney, she had been widowed
previous to this marriage and was called Riley.
She had 24 children some Rileys and some Gaffneys,
so the Gaffneys from Ringsend are also related to
Rileys of Ringsend. I know its a bit sketchy but
will get a clearer picture when I get it from the
horses mouth !

The library in Dundalk has very good records of families in the Louth region. A friend of mine got lots of info from them. You could try them. They will require a small fee. I don't know the address but you could try googling for it.

Hi Catherine, I did write to you a while ago about the Mc Cann family from Dublin, I have just had confirmation from the Pro- Cathedral about my Dad's address at the time of his Baptism, The family lived at Lower Dorset Street, my Dad's name was Patrick he had a brother James older than him by approx 3 yrs and a sister younger than him who died as a child who may have been called Mary, I believe she was placed in a convent when her Mother died , their parents name were Thomas and Frances Mc Cann but on my Dad's baptism cert it states for Frances that she is Mc Cann nee` Mc Cann,akin to Smith marrying Smith. Any info on this family would be welcome even my cousins over there do not know more than I do apart from later on the family may have lived around Pearse Street and we don't know if the parents were Dublin born, as you can appreciate from this side of the water access to census etc is almost nil, so your efforts are well appreciated, cheers Liverbirds

Hi Catherine,
Thank you so much for your kind offer to help others here.
I would appreciate any assistance in locating a baptism/birth record on my great granny Mary Deegan who was born in Dublin, Ireland around 1870-78.
Her parents were: Edward Lyons Deegan & Eliza Byrne.
This is obtained from her marriage certificate as I was advised to "believe" the information on the earliest certificate I have on her.
Where exactly in Dublin--I do not know, simply Dublin as it was listed on her marriage certificate.
Looking forward to hear from you.
Kind regards,
Tees

Hello,
I was wondering if you could assist with finding a birth in Dublin for me. He is the biggest of brick walls I have come across.
According to his Victorian death certificate THOMAS HENRY EMMS was born c 1819 in DUBLIN.
No parent's names.
His 1845 NSW marriage certificate also had no details
He is said to have arrived into Australia c1826 but I can find no evidence of this.
Any thing that can assist in determining his place of origin will be welcomed even if it rules out the DUBLIN that we have.
