Cork / Re: GOOD and RICE families from Cork

Hello all. Mary, thanks for posting those photos -they're incredible ! John, I sent you a msg elsewhere. My g-g-grandmother was Mary Rice, married to William Bradfield, and I believe Ann Rice was her sister. I also believe that Ann's husband Thomas Good is related to my Good's - William & Mary's daughter (my g-grandmother) Beatrice Maud Bradfield married Robert Joseph Good, son of a (different) Thomas Good.
The surname Bird is also interesting. One of my Bradfields - John Richard Bradfield (s.o. William & Mary) married Mary Elizabeth Tanner, whose mother was Eliza Bird. And one of my g.g.uncles - a brother of my Thomas Good - named his daughter Mary Bird Good... and I suspect her mother was a Bird. I'm still working on that connection. They wound up coming to Canada around 1921.
