Thank you for your efforts, Heywood and Wex!  Yes the baptism for Richard is the same family.  His sister Mary being my great grandmother!

Thanks again and sorry for my delay in replying!

Cork / O'Donovan/ Hayes Marriage
« on: Saturday 17 February 24 13:48 GMT (UK)  »
I am interested in a marriage between. a Timothy O'Donovan and a Joan Hayes.  The wedding would be in West Cork, possibly in Kilmacabea (Leap) or nearby Roscarberry.  I estimate that we are looking in the 1845-1855 time span.  Anyone with links to both names, I would love to hear from you.

Cork / Re: O'Donovan marriage triangle

Shwd ych chi?  Sorry for the delay in answering.  West Cork is undoubtedly the heartland of the O'Donovans.  I have two separate lines on my maternal line; one from Dunmanway and one from Leap, both in West Cork.
Your Donovans were probably attracted to the S. Cymru valleys, looking for war.  I have no O'Donovan family (that I know of) on this side of the Celtic Sea.
Pob lwyddiant gyda'r ymchwil!

Cofion.

Cork / O'Donovan marriage triangle
« on: Wednesday 25 January 23 16:46 GMT (UK)  »
Nos waith dda o Gymru/  Good evening from Wales.  For the past 8 years or so, I have been trying to claculate the relationship between my O'Donovan family, in the Tullig, Leap area and Tadgh An Asna O'Donovan, leader of the United Irishmen in West Cork; killed at the Battle of the Big Cross, on June 14th 1798.  For years as a child and adult, I heard that we are related to the great man, but at the time, never had the presence of mind to ask the nature of our relationship.  Sadly, there is now nobody left to ask, on either side of the Celtic Sea.
A friend of mine, Clonakilty born and bred told me the following story;
It was said in the area that you draw a line from Clonakilty, around Rossmore, Reenascreena and over to Tullig and return via Foxhall, Sam's Cross and the Pike, all of the families within this are are related to each other.  This particularly interests me , as my O'Donovan family were from Tullig and Tadhg's from Kilbree, also within the triangle.
Anyone know anything about this story please?
