I need some help regarding my Irish side of my family tree on my mothers side of the family. I am researching g g g grand parents, I will provide as much as I can, the problem is on the UK census returns there isn't too much to go on. I would like some guidance.. My gggg grandfather's details Michael Tierney DOB @1808 Born Ireland he first crops up on the UK 1851 census. Next is my gggg grandmother Ann Tierny (Nee Reilly) DOB @1815 Born Ireland. For years I have tried to crack the Irish part of the tree. I apologise for so little information, there could be someone out there who may have the key for me to carry on with my own research ...Keith

They have six children, 5 born in Ireland and 1 my ggg grandfather born in Liverpool.
Mary Tierney DOB 1839 Ireland
William Tierney DOB 1842 Ireland
Eliza Tierney DOB 1845 Ireland
Ann Tierney DOB 1847 Ireland
Kate Tierney DOB 1849 Ireland
Michael Tierney DOB 1851 Liverpool

Hello again,
Do you have Ann's name, Reilly, from Michael's birth certificate?
I am confused a bit. Looking over an old thread, you mention George son of Michael Tierney.
So, did your Michael Tierney marry Margaret Leyland.
If so, that marriage has Michael's parents as James and Catherine. :-\

from Tithes Applotment Books 1823-1837 at the National Arhives
http://titheapplotmentbooks.nationalarchives.ie/
this covers the 26 counties and I found
Tierney Michael Maddenstown Ballysax Kildare 1826
there are 67 Reilly in county but none match
Tierney Michael Barretstown Knocktopher Kilkenny 1830
there are 30 Reilly in county but none match
Tierney Michael Knockearl,Bricana Templeharry King's 1825
Tierney Michael Temple Harry Templeharry King's 1825
there are 7 Reilly in county but none match
Tierney Michael Sluggarah Limerick Limerick 1824
Tierney Michael Sluggara Limerick Limerick 1824
Tierney Michael Cahirelly East Caherelly Limerick 1833
Tierney Michael Caherelly East Caherelly Limerick 1833
there are 13 Reilly in county but none match
Tierney Michael Farnavorra Ballysheehan Tipperary 1827
Tierney Michael Knockanavin Glenkeen Tipperary 1832
Tierney Michael Ballydrehid Killardry Tipperary 1834
Tierney Michael Shehevry Upperchurch, Templebeg Tipperary 1829
Tierney Michael Commons of Knocervoula Upperchurch, Templebeg Tipperary 1829
Tierney Michael Commons of Knockervoula Upperchurch, Templebeg Tipperary 1829
there are 24 Reilly in county but none match
but I had restricted the Tierney to just a Michael , I could redo it and should but I went over to the 6 counties and used the indexs to find Tithes Applotment Books 1823-1837 based upon the work of the Irish Genealogy Hub. The relevant original books are in the
Public Record Office of Northern Ireland (PRONI) Belfast
and in
http://www.irishgenealogyhub.com/armagh-ancestry.php#.V9j1KmWoc5Q
I found both names in the same townland, same parish, and same county
REILY, ANDREW-- TOWNLAND: TULLYVALLON HAMILTON YEAR: 1830-NEWTOWNHAMILTON-ARMAGH
TIERNEY, FELIX-- TOWNLAND: TULLYVALLON HAMILTON YEAR: 1830-NEWTOWNHAMILTON-ARMAGH
TIERNEY, PATT.-- TOWNLAND: TULLYVALLON HAMILTON YEAR: 1830-NEWTOWNHAMILTON-ARMAGH
so if I was a betting man that’s the winner for the most likely place where bride and groom met.
in the same way I further selected out the Michael Tierney entries from the same source
Tierney, Michael-- Townland: Carricknagavna Year: 1828-Forkhill-Armagh
Tierney, Michael-T: Cregnadeveskey Y: 1825-Termonmaguirk-Tyrone
so this means to me that Michael might be living with his father mother a widow, or a brother if church records exist it is worth checking so

I am about to post and noted a James could be the father of Michael, so here are the possibles in the 6 counties, you could look up the national library for james in the 6 counties.
Tierney, James-T: Bockets Y: 1829-Killeeshill-Tyrone
Tierney, Jas.-Tl: Drumrainbaun Yr: 1834-Galloon-Fermanagh
Tierney, Jas.-Tl: Keeranbeg Yr: 1834-Galloon-Fermanagh
The Tithes are very useful but were not state organised but by the Church Of Ireland, and are incomplete, but better than nothing.
I have run out of time, keep going

BallyaltikilliganG,
I don't know what to say, so I will start with thank you, for your time and effort ...

Tierney Michael Ballydrehid Killardry Tipperary 1834
This Michael is part of my ancestry. I wish, I knew where the brothers and sister went to.
They went to the states and that is the last I have found them. John, Daniel, Thomas, Patrick, William
Michael left the states and moved to Ontario Canada.

goodluck, onwards
