Cork / Re: Need church addresses for Blarney Parish

Thank you, and , yes, it is Whitechurch; the mistake was my typo.
Are the addresses listed enough? There is no street address or what we call in the US a zipcode.

Cork / Re: 3xGreat Grandparents from Cork

Mallow Heritage Center as well as what I found, said Blarney Parish. So, thank you for the tip and I will certainly write becasue I live in Southern California and have no plans to get to Ireland in the near future. Have been there five times but did not take advantage of the time for genealogy. It just seems odd to me that the record does not have the church or the villages/towns that the couple came from.

Thank you so much for your response and information about the church. Also, I will try your suggestion and check the website you list. Is there any explanation why the record would not list the church?

Cork / 3xGreat Grandparents from Cork
« on: Tuesday 15 June 10 01:23 BST (UK) »
From previous posts of others in reponse to my question, I have learned a few things about my 3x Great grandparents, John Dorgan and Mary Bruadar Dorgan of Cork, but I am seeking more information. I commissioned a search through Mallow Heritage Center which turned up nothing more than I already discovered myself. The only record found was the marriage of John and Mary in Blarney Parish, Cork on February 18, 1827. The witnesses were: Timothy Buckley and John Sullivan; but, the record does not include the name of the Church, or the village or town Mary or John came from. Does anyone know the name of the Church(s) in Blarney parish in 1827?
From this and other chat sites, I know that most Dorgans came from the area around Blarney Castle, and that Bruadar was a common name in Cork, not so much anymore, but there are still some variations of Bruadar in Cork City.
John and Mary, and their two daughters, Abigail and Mary (no baptism record found), emigrated to the US arriving in New York May, 1842. They may have stayed few years in Manhattan, but by 1850 they were settled in Brooklyn and remained life long residents of the Williamsburg section. Their daughter, Abigail married William McLaughlin (born in Ireland) and they had 8 children. They also lived in the Williamsburg section. Abigail and William’s daughter Abigail (Abby) married Patrick F. Haggerty (born in England to Irish parents). Abby and Patrick were my great grandparents and also lived in Brooklyn. Patrick was a jeweler.
Any information about Dorgans or Bruadars in Cork who had relatives settle in Brooklyn, NY would be greatly appreciated.

Cork / Re: Gt Grandmother in Cork Workhouse
« on: Tuesday 15 June 10 01:08 BST (UK) »
In researching my great grandmother who was from Waterford, I came to the conclusion that she might have grown up in a workhouse during the famine years just prior to coming to America at age 16. The clue was she came alone and children were released from the workhouse at 16 and given passage to America. In reading on workhouses, at least during the famine, I discovered that births, marriages, and deaths were not recorded in the church registers at that time, and there was no civil registration until 1864, but they were recorded in the Minutes of the meetings of the Trustees of the Workhouse, which were either monthly or weekly. Further, the information I found said that Workhouse records are not indexed, not digitalized and not available on line. If you type Irish Workhouses into your browser you should get the information I found. I was told by an Irish genealogy research company that you can go and read the workhouse records, or hire someone to do it, but i can't remember where the records are held.

Thanks also for the reply about the name Brothers; possibly another from the root Bruadar. That's interesing, and makes for another option to explore. In genealogy I find that one discovery seems to lead to another question. Thanks for your interest and assistance.

That's wonderful information, thanks so much. I didn't expect such a quick reply. Broderick was one of the names I thought might have come from Bruadar. Perhaps I will have to try to locate the Brudair bakery in northern Cork.
Thanks again.
Thanks again.
