Laois (Queens) / Sythes/Sides family Parish of Offerlane, Queens
« on: Sunday 13 November 11 10:40 GMT (UK) »
Hello, I'm hoping someone may be able to help. My great garndfather was Henry Alley Sythes (changed to Sides in NZ) and he was baptised 10 Aug 1862, in the Parish of Offerlane. I have his birth place as Clonan Hill, Parish of Offerlane. He was the son of George and Ellen (nee Chambers) and I think he had six siblings. George and Ellen Sythes were married in Mountmellick in 1849.
Henry and brother George emmigrated to New Zealand and settled here.
I would love to contact someone who is related to this family or who can help with any info about Henry's family.
Kind regards, Robyn

Yippee! A connection. Nancy's father, Thomas, was my 3x great grandfather.
Nancy had a brother - James - who was the father of my great grandfather Thomas. (This Thomas is the one who came to NZ with his sisters.)
I also have that Nancy married John Patton in 1853 Limavady, Tamlaght Finlagan.
Unfortunately I have no other info on Nancy or her descendants.
I can send you James's descendants if you'd like.
Do you have the name of Nancy's mother? I have a choice of two
Do you have any more on the Vincents? We are really struggling on this side of the world and would love more background info for the book we're compiling for our reunion next year.

Thank you kingskerwell. I think that Robert was a brother to 'my' James Vincent.
We have a marriage cert for James and Mary (Thompson). His residence was Tamlaght and hers Drumran.
Would love to be able to get back further.
Thanks again, Robyn

Hello, I have just discovered this chat page and am very interested.
My g g gradmother was Mary Thompson, born 1831, Tamlaght Finlagan. She married James Vincent, born Londonderry, in 1850 at Tamlaght Finlagan.
Marys father was William Thompson. I wonder if Mary is a sister to Robert Thompson that much of the discussion is about?
I would be grateful if any one can help with information about the Vincent family.
James and Mary's three oldest children immigrated to Australia, with Thomas eventually settling in New Zealand where I live.
We are holding a Vincent family reunion in Feb 2012 and would love some background of the family in Ireland.
Thomas and his sister Hadassah were both christened in the parish church at Tamlaght Finlagan.
Regards,
Robyn
