I have traced my great grandfather to Cloonbannin East Cullen Parish. This info came via his gravestone in Newmarket. Family diaries also show a connection to the town lands of Bawn More and Kippagh and there is a Patrick Foley in the townland of Bawn More. How can I differentiate. I can't find anything about the Bawn More Foley but have brothers and a sister of the Cloonbannin one

Yes. I believe that Johannes is my grandfather John who emigrated to New Zealand in 1878.
ONe search had two brothers Patrick (baptised Kilmeen 10.6.64) and Daniel (5.2.87) and a sister Julia (20.12.69) I am trying to track these siblings who we understand went to America.

You can look for births, marriages and deaths from 1864 in the Civil Records on Irish Genealogy
https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/civil-search.jsp
You just need to prove your not a robot and sign it.
Despite the difference in date (not unusual) appears to be Julia birth cert
https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/birth_returns/births_1870/03353/2229415.pdf
not all images of death certs are online yet.
other wise if they did go to America you won't find anything from when they left in Irish records.
You'll need to look in America.

Thank you for your help.

I had relatives living in Kippagh townland during the time period mentioned in your posting. They had relatives named Foley that emigrated to the area you mentioned. Do you recognize the names McSweeney or Collins?

As Sinann posted...

Birth Certs show mother's maiden names...
ALL Civil Reg Birth, Marriage and Death results for Foley of Kanturk from ? to 1890
Click births or Marriages as needed right click on 5 or 6 names and open them in New Tab, much handier.
Change Surname as needed.
Patrick 10.6.64 and a sister Julia 20.12.69 and Daniel 5.2.87 looks very suspicious... 5 yrs between births then 18 years to next!!
With Lockdown etc it is an ideal time to sit down and research them rather than having a few bits posted for you. Then if one sees one of theirs on some family tree one has ability to check if they are correct or not etc...
Most importantly... Wash hands regularly!!! ;D

Daniel and Julia appear to have emigrated before 1880 to Cadillac, Wexford, Michigan.
Daniel married twice 1890 and 1902 he was a conductor on the railway
Julia married quite young about 16/17 to William J Dax

Greetings during lockdown time. I have pretty much sorted my Great Grandfather Patrick Foley. He died while in the Townland of Castlekevin and was baptised while at Bawnmore Townland. He also lived in Kippagh Townland. However I can't find any evidence that he lived at Kippagh. There are no records that I can find.
And more generally. Did labourers move readily from Townland to Townland? At Castlekevin Patrick Foley is recorded as having a house only at five shillings. Is that per year?

........my Great Grandfather Patrick Foley. He died while in the Townland of Castlekevin.......
Castlekevin townland

Is this the death of your Gt Grandfather in 1894?

The informant is his daughter Nora Foley.

Yes got those records thanks. But I can't find any records for Kippagh. Maybe it wasn't part of the 1851 Census?
