I have a memorial for John Lindsay at Blackrock but it says of
Maryville, Blackrock died April 5 1867 or 1887 aged 75 also his wife Anne and sons and there are five other Lindsay names at the end of the monument.

File won't attach too large so if you want to send me  a PM ( private message with your email address I can send it to you)

Mary

Thank you so much Mary for all your help, and the info & great photos. Wonderful to have. My Lindsay research has gone ahead leaps and bounds. Thank you so much.
Cheers, Fran

Hi Lorc

I've been pondering if there is a connection with the Lindsay's of Blackrock and Henry Lindsay of Peake. They are all very new to me and it's taking me some time to sort through newspapers etc to work out the relationships.

I had a look at your Radley's website. Many thanks, you have a lot of great info there & photos.

So far I think I have my line back to John Lindsay born abt 1740 & died 1801 (HC 3 Dec 1801 - John Lindsay esq of Lindville, Burgess, in Bristol). He married Frances Johnson in 1760. Their son John Lindsay jnr bap 1767 (a barrister), married in 1801 to Jane Woodley (parents not known to me). I think it likely that the Lindsay residence 'Janeville' was named after Jane Woodley.

I see from your website that Mary Lindsay, dau of Henry Lindsay of Peake, married Anthony Woodley of Myshell in 1805; and that you have this Lindsay line back to Thomas Lindsay of Macroom who married Mary Browne in 1746.

John Lindsay jnr & Jane Woodley had at least 2 sons - Joseph Woodley Lindsay (1804-1888) & Francis Woodley Lindsay (abt 1811-1872). Encumbered estates Vol 7: John Lindsay, owner/Joseph Woodley Lindsay, petitioner - Lindville, Janeville, Maryville and property on the Wellington Rd.

I'd be interested in exploring this some more.

Cheers, Fran

Sorry Mary, just realised my mistake with the memorial to John Lindsay d1870 - it's at St Michael's Blackrock (not the Cathedral).
Cheers, Fran

Hi Mary

Thank you so much for getting back to me so quickly!

I will send for the book - many thanks. I googled the title and there's a copy in the Genealogy Library in Sydney, but I think I'd still like to have a copy to keep.

And thanks for the additional marriage details. I'm slowly piecing the families together. And I've been looking at modern maps of Blackrock and can find streetnames Lindville & Maryville. Great to see where their homes would have been.

Were the headstones you found of Lindsay's? I believe there is a memorial to John Lindsay 1789-1870 in the Cathedral (he was the author of several books on coins). If I'm correct, he's a grandson of John Lindsay & Frances Johnson.

It's wonderful what can be found - Francis had been a brick wall for many years.

Thanks again, Fran

To Mary (Celtic Liberty)

Thank you so much for posting the baptisms of John Lindsay & Frances Johnson at St Finbarr, Cork.

Their son Francis bap 1776 is my ancestor. I've only just discovered this - thanks to you - and thanks to the clues Francis provided (he named one son, Noble Johnson Weatherall Lindsay, and then this son Noble wrote in the family bible that his father Francis was from Cork). Francis was in Somerset by 1828 and his son Noble was in Australia by 1849.

You mention a book of St Finbarr. Is this something I could purchase? I've now found quite a bit on the Lindsay, Johnson & Wetherall families of Cork - mostly from the vols of O'Kief, Coshe Mang, etc, (newspapers and Cork Council Books) but would love to cross check with whatever might be available in parish registers.

Many thanks, Fran
