Cork / Re: Denis LINEHAN family Cork 1800'S
« on: Friday 04 November 22 13:32 GMT (UK)  »
I have Deaths for Margaret and Christopher both died as Babies and Hugh died a young man.  The 4th member of that family (the 3rd marriage) emigrated to the UK.  Denis, Amanda Kathleen, Hester and Eva emigrated to the UK and John was killed in the Battle of Hanna 1916,  (Those 5 were from the 2nd Marriage).  My Grandmother was the only member of the 1st Marriage. Most of Denis's  decendants came from my Grandmother.  She was the only one who stayed in Ireland.  I think Denis may have served with The Royal Artillery in Cork.  He may have been a leather cutter.

Cork / Denis LINEHAN family Cork 1800'S
« on: Tuesday 01 November 22 22:26 GMT (UK)  »
I am looking for any information that may be available on my Great Grandfather Denis Linehan.  He married my Great Grandmother  in April 1880 and a Daughter was born to them in February 1882.  Denis's wife passed away later the same year and he remarried in 1889.  5 Children were born into that Marriage and he was again  Widowed in 1899.  In 1901 he married for a 3rd time and 4 Children were born into that Marriage.  Denis died in December 1916 at the age of 60. Residents given at time of death was Fishery Island Cork.  Occupation at time of death was a Leather cutter and Shoe Polish manufacturer.  I have checked the civil records for his Marriage in 1880,  Address given is Cattle Market Place and his Fathers name was Denis. Any further information would be greatly appreciated.

United States of America / Re: PATRICK HORGAN / CATHERINE McDERMOT CORK. EMIGRATED TO USA LATE 1800'S

Hi to you,

Delighted you made contact.  What a lovely surprise.  This is what I have regarding  my Patrick Horgan.  He was born in Cork, Ireland on 11/06/1859.  Baptised in St. Peter and Pauls Church, Cork on 12/06/1859.  I have a Marriage for a Patrick Horgan ( not absolutely certain this is the same man)   and Catherine McDermott in St. Peter and Pauls Church, Cork on 14/06/1879.

All this comes as a result of a line on my Grand Father Francis Horgan's army records which states in a family section that he had a brother named Patrick in USA.  This would have been about 1914. So if these two are brothers, Patrick emigrated to the USA between 1879 and 1914. As my Grand Father was the youngest of the family and was deceased long before I was born I don't have anything handed down as word of mouth and don't have any information on Patrick after he reached the USA.   
 

Hope this may be of some assistance to you and if so can fill you in on some further details.

Best Wishes.

It might be Lisa but I couldn't be sure as all I have for Catherine is her address here in Cork, her date of marriage and her fathers name.

Thank you so much Lisa. Patrick and Catherine lived 3 houses from each other.  I very much doubt if they would have had the money to come back to Ireland to marry.  It's my quess they emigrated after the marriage.  Have checked local church records for a Baptism of a baby 1879/ 1880 but found nothing.  My only piece of information is on my Granfathers army records where it says next of kin "Patrick Horgan U S America."

Hi Lisa,

Took a trip to the Births Deaths and Marriages office today.  This is the information on the civil marriage certificate.  Patrick Horgan and Catherine McDermott were married in Cork on 14th June 1879.  Patricks father was named John and his occupation was a labourer.  Catherine's father was also named John (deceased) and his occupation was a sailor.  Patricks occupation was a labourer and there was not any occupation for Catherine.

Would I be right in assuming that the journey to America would have been via ship from Queenstown ( now known as Cobh) to New York or Boston.  Are there any easily accessed ships manifest for that period?
