Kilkenny / Re: Lannan Family
« on: Wednesday 16 March 16 02:35 GMT (UK)  »
Hi Shelley and Maree

my message from Feb 15 below asked about a William Lannan born Kilkenny 1830 and migrated to Adelaide in 1852 with his wife Mary Connery.  They had been married in Conahy Parish Church on 17 Oct 1848.

Shelley - could you please invite me to your ancestry tree?  My email is (*)

I am desperately trying to find any siblings/family of "my" William Lannan.

[the Patrick Lannan mentioned in your respective below messages do not seem to be the same person - the dates seem too far apart?  I might be wrong.]

regards

Steve Burns

thanks again Conahy Calling!

I didn't know about those websites, although I have visited both cemeteries.  I do know Deidre Leahy (who took the grave photos) who is related to the Maher family, but not sure if it's "my" Mahers.

I'm still searching for the "missing link" between my Mahers and the Mahers in the various records and headstones etc.

cheers

thanks Conahy Calling - I actually have previously found and copied all this stuff.

What I am after is some linkage of "my" Patrick Maher with the Patrick Maher who appears in the Griffiths Valuation record for Clintstown, recorded in May 1849 (ie after "my" Patrick had left for Australia).  Is this his father?  And is the Philip Maher recorded in the 1826 Tithe Applotments his grandfather?  Same with a William Connery in Clintstown in 1849, and a Thomas Connery in 1826 - were they the immediate family of "my" Sarah Connery?

Is there anyone researching the Maher family in Clintstown, Conahy, Kilmacar etc?  How can I start constructing a family tree?

cheers

Kilkenny / Fitzpatrick and Hoban Families in Cloghpook, Kilkenny
« on: Tuesday 17 February 15 10:29 GMT (UK)  »
Hi - can anyone help me in researching the Fitzpatrick and Hoban families from Cloghpook?

James Fitzpatrick (1797-1869) married Honorah Hoban (1802-1874) on 24th February 1824 in Tullabrin, Kilkenny and they lived in Cloghpook.  There are Fitzpatricks living there still.  I am trying to trace their families.

thanks

Kilkenny / Maher Family in Clintstown, Kilkenny

Hi - can anyone help me in researching the Maher family in the townland of Clintstown, Kilkenny?

I know that Patrick Maher (b1820) my GGGrandfather was born in Clintstown and married Sarah Connery in the then new Conahy Parish Church in 1840, before emigrating to Australia the same year.  I want to know about the rest of his family (upstream in Ireland), and also that of the Connery family, also (I think) from Clintstown).

thanks

Steve

Kilkenny / Re: Lannan Family
« on: Tuesday 17 February 15 08:44 GMT (UK)  »
Hi everybody - I've been reading posts on this forum with interest, and have a question:

My 2GGrandaunt was Mary Connery (b1823) from Clintstown in Kilkenny.  She married William Joseph Lannan (b1830) in Conahy Parish Church on 17th October 1848.  They migrated to Australia in August 1875, arriving in Adelaide on the Epanimondas.

Mary's sister, my 2GGrandmother Sarah Connery (b1821) married Patrick Maher (b1820) of Clintstown in Conahy Parish Church on 29th May 1840.

Both couples migrated to Australia and started large dynasties in NSW.

I need to trace the Connery, Lannan and Maher families' earlier history and lineage in Kilkenny.

Can anyone help me???
thanks
Steve
