Hello,
I am new to Rootschat. I have Byrnes/Burns/Byrns roots in Tullyorior. My great grandmother was Ann Jane Byrns (b~1825, died 1875 in Banbridge). She was married to Hugh McCourt. I have not been able to find a marriage record for them, or a birth/baptism record for Ann Jane. They were Catholic.
I have been working on family genealogy for over 50 years. DNA matches are finally breaking down some of my brickwalls. I have several DNA matches to folks descended from Edward Ogle Byrnes (B~1815 and Married to Catherine Clarke), John Henry Byrns (B~1827 and married to Agnes Lennon, Dina Byrns (B 1881 and married to Josepg O'Dowd), and Patrick Burns (b ~1820 and moved to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA). I think these may all be my great grandmother's brothers.
I see on the map that someone has posted where the farms of Edward Ogle Burns, Dina Burns, and John Burns are located in Tullyorior. Thank you so much for posting that!
Does any one have any connection to these Burns/Byrns/Byrnes families? I would love to find out who my great grandmother's parents were.
Thanks you.
