Tipperary / Re: Michael Guerin and Ann Kahall/CahallTerryglass Tipperary
« on: Sunday 21 May 23 07:20 BST (UK)  »
Hi, My cousins and I are actively researching our Guerin ancestry and suspect that there may be a link with your family.

Our William Guerin seems to have been born c. 1827 in Tipperary. We have not been able to establish the names of his parents. However, one cousin has a DNA connection to a descendant of Bridget Boulton nee Guerin (who migrated to Australia), the daughter of Michael Guerin and Nancy (Anne) Cahalan of Terryglass, Tipperary. This cousin also shares DNA with a Guerin descendant in New York.

We would very much like to make contact with you.

Hi, I am working on my Guerin line: William Guerin b. c. 1827 Tipperary and became a soldier in the 70th Regiment of Foot and ended up in New Zealand.

Our research indicates that we may be related to a Patrick Francis Guerin born in Tipperary (1863- 1909) and living in Brooklyn, New York as he put a notice in a New Zealand paper in the 1890s looking for our Guerins (William and his wife Catherine Sweeney Tierney Guerin).

DNA has shown a potential link of a cousin of mine with the descendants of Bridget Guerin Boulton (c. 1827-1901) (daughter of Michael Guerin and Nancy/Anne Cahalan) from (Clooninihy) Terryglass, Tipperary who arrived in NSW Australia in 1849. Bridget's sister Anne and three brothers also arrived in NSW, Australia and their parents listed as being both dead by the time the boys left Ireland in 1854.

I'm keen to investigate these lines further if possible to see if we can connect our Guerins and get more of an idea where in Tipperary our William Guerin came from.

Best wishes, Astrea

Hi, I've just come across this thread about Bridget and Ann Guerin from Terryglass, Tipperary. I am trying to trace any own Guerin ancestors back to Ireland - and have got as far as William Guerin b. 1827 in Tipperary - but no further details (Tipperary Parish according to his soldier's documents). Bridget Guerin has come to my attention as one of my relatives seems to have a DNA connection with one of her descendants (through Ancestry.com) - although I don't. We are in New Zealand and I'd like to follow up on the possibility that Bridget and Ann and our William may be related. Happy to exchange info or see if we can connect in some way through Ancestry or GEDmatch. Cheers, Astrea
