Cavan / Re: Monaghan from County Cavan

Hi Rex

Many thanks for responding.  Apparently there is a parish/township Monaghan in Country Cavan which I came across after sending me message.  I'm off to the geanological society tomorrow so hopefully may find something.  Kaye

Cavan / Re: Monaghan from County Cavan
« on: Saturday 17 November 12 14:50 GMT (UK)  »
Hello
I am trying to find details of a Thomas Matthew (George) Deering and a Bridget or Julia Lee born around 1800 who had a daughter Mary or Margaret than married a Francis Monaghan.  The Deerings were from County Cavan but I have Francis Monaghan from Monaghan Ireland which may be incorrect.  I wonder if he may be related to your Monaghan's.  Frances and Margaret were born around 1832 and immigrated to Victoria, Australia around 1856/57.  Any help would be appreciated.   Kaye

Hello
Does anyone know of an OPC for Ireland - Cavan in particular.

Hello Aghadowey
I did find the Griffiths posting and printed a copy.  Whilst it could well be my Thomas Deering I cannot be sure.  I was hoping somehow I may also find siblings so that I may be able to piece things together that way.  I did come across a site that had only 3 Deering families living in Cavan in 1857 - the year two of the families immigrated to Australia.  It was interesting to note their were quite a number of Deerings in Ireland at this time, some counties had on 1 or 2 and others up to 18.  Kaye

Hi Elwyn
Thank you for the info.  The Deerings were Roman Catholic at the time the immigrated to Australia so I can only assume generations before were so as well.
Thomas my great great grandfather was born in 1824 and I have his death certificate.  As his father would have been born before 1820 do you know if there is somewhere else that may hold these records or are they all lost or destroyed prior to this.  I have been told that you are luckier if you are researching County Cavan as it has many more retained documents than other counties. Maybe this is why my cousin's ex wife could not go back any further.  Kaye

Cavan / Online Parish Clerk Ireland

Hello
I am trying to locate an online parish clerk for Cavan Ireland if such exists.  I am sure I saw on a post they do.  I am in contact with Cornwall OPC's and they are just terrific.  Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.  I am trying to find details of Thomas Deering and Jane Shields (Thomas born around 1824) and his parents Thomas Deering and a Sarah for which I have no details.  I believe the Deering's are from Urnley Cavan - at least Thomas Jnr is.  Kaye   ::)
