Cork / Re: Stubbs in Mallow

Thank you Diane - yes, I'd agree with all of your comments.

Samuel Stubbs 1824-1904, father to William, was born in Mayo, as was his father Joseph Stubbs 1770-1855.

Samuel served in the 41st Regiment of Foot and after being stationed in Cork from about 1849 to 1851, the 41st went to Corfu, Greece. From there they went to Malta in February 1853 and then on to fight in the Crimean war.
Mary Anne Clarke died, don't know when or where, as Samuel remarried in 1870 in Dublin, to a Mary Anne Minorgan and after having some children in Dublin, they moved to Canada, where his brother and widowed father had settled. Samuel died in Herschel, Ontario on 13th December 1904. I have wondered if Mary Anne Clark travelled with Samuel to Corfu/Malta, but I've not found that out.


I did meet Annie, in Swindon, would have been in the early 1960s, in the 'corner shop'

All the best,
Tom

Hi Senahel,

Thank you for the details.

I'm Tom, grandson of Christopher Stubbs, who was a brother to Daniel Stubbs.
Yes, the graves are part of the Mallow Stubbs family.

I think the Kate and Dan grave would be the Dan that Rosebud087 refers to, being great grandfather to Rosebud087, and the Michael and Mary grave would be Rosebud087's grandparents. I think Donal would have been uncle to Rosebud087.
The other grave, of Billy and Mary, would be the Billy Stubbs as in one the sons of my grandfather Christopher Stubbs, Billy was brother to my mother Mary Stubbs.

I've found quite a bit of information on the Stubbs family, but never been able to find the birth details of the father of Dan and Christopher, a William Stubbs.

Regards
Tom

Thank you, part of the 'mystery' is Samuel Stubbs was Church of Ireland and married in a civil ceremony, but his son William married in an RC one

Hi Hallmark, thank you for the link, but it does not have the William Stubbs birth details that I'm looking for, he would have been born in 1850-1860.
I'm not sure of our connection Brinkworth2, but Annie Stubbs (Annie McCarthy) was the sister of my grandfather Christopher Stubbs, both born in Mallow, Cork, if that helps

Hi All
I was on this thread about 10 years ago, Epsom Tom, but back with a new login now. I've think I've found a few things about William and Mary Stubbs of Ball Alley Lane. I'd heard from cousins that William (my great grandfather) was from England, but that doesn't seem to be the case. His father was Samuel Stubbs, who married Mary Anne Clarke in Mallow on 10th April 1849 in a civil ceremony. Samuel's father was a Joseph Stubbs and Mary Anne's a Thomas Clarke. Samuel, in 1849, was a Private in the 41st Regiment. William married Mary Beechinor in a Catholic service in Mallow on 10th February 1880. Samuel came from a small place called Parke, Turlough near Castlebar in Mayo. He had quite a military career, including serving in the Crimean war. His first wife died and he remarried to a Mary Ann Minorgan, in Dublin, on 9th June 1870 and with his new family emigrated to Ontario in Canada. I've not been able to find the birth or baptism of William Stubbs, but the census of 1901 and 1911 puts his place of birth as Co Cork. I'm Tom Hurst, son of Mary Hurst, who was Mary Stubbs, born in Mallow in 1915 to Christy Stubbs, one of the sons of William and Mary.
I'm still trying to dig out information and look forward to hearing from any cousins with information or questions - all the best, Tom
