Mike,

Good idea!  As of now, I do not know of any living male WALSHes who descend from my WALSH ancestor.  I believe there are some, though, and I could try to track some down although I would expect some resistence to the idea of a DNA test since they wouldn't know me.

Hi John

I just noticed your reply today (1 year later).  THANK YOU very much for finding those records for me!  It is always a big step when I can find an exact location where a branch of my family lived in Ireland.   Where did you find these records?  I'd love to take the next step and look for Michael's marriage to see if it lists parents and can connect to the other Walsh families that had similar migration routes through the US.

I'd be happy to discuss this further.  Feel free to contact me at (*). 

Brad

Kilkenny / Ballyhale Parish - WALSH/WELCH
« on: Sunday 09 April 06 06:00 BST (UK)  »
I have reason to believe that my Walsh ancestors came from Ballyhale.  This could be confirmed by locating baptismal records for children of Michael Walsh/Welch and wife Ellen Shea.  They had a son James born in 1841-2, and a son John born 1843-1846.  Could anyone possibly look this up for me?  Thank you very much.

This family ended up in Boston, Jackson County Iowa, Dubuque County Iowa, Hillsborough County NH, and back to Boston.

I'd appreciate help finding my family in the 1841 Census in Preston Quarter, Whitehaven.

The parents are Hugh Murray (b. 1799 Ireland) and Sarah Murray (b. 1801 Ireland).  The children as of 1841 would be James (b. 1830 Whitehaven), William (b. 1831 Whitehaven), Sarah (b. 1834 Whitehaven), Michael (b. 1836 Workington), Ann (b. 1839 Whitehaven), and Elizabeth (b. 1841 Whitehaven).

Thank you!
