Hey Jericho.  No idea if you're still on here or still interested in this old stuff from almost 20 years ago

But I know quite a bit about Browns, McGuires, McCarthy Nash and Ross to varying degrees

Cheers, Mike

Welcome to RootsChat, mikenash  :)

This thread was initiated by jericho in May 2005.

The marriage found by LH was in Coolcappagh RC Church.

Coolcappagh townland west of Rathkeale.

This is him with his wife & kids photographed in Hilderthorpe 1939/1940

Is this Hilderthorpe - an area of Bridlington and former civil parish in the East Riding of Yorkshire, England?

Hey LH, thanks very much for this.  That is where "Fitzgerald" comes into the picture, as Michael Nash/Naish and some half-siblings I think, are sponsored on their birth/baptismal certificates by the Fitzgerald family.  Cheers

Hi guys

Michael Nash (how he spells it) the son of Richard Nash/Naish and Margaret Foran (Horan?) emigrated to New Zealand with a half-brother.  He says "at the age of eleven" in 1887, probably on the ship "Kaikoura"

He's my grandfather.  I know a moderate amount about him and plenty about his descendants.

He's photographed here in Hilderthorpe, Otago, New Zealand.  By one of life's coincidences, his wife, Margaret Anne (nee Brown) is the daughter of a gentleman who came from Hull - just inland from Hilderthorpe in England, I think

Here he is later in life standing in his garden

I can help with what details I have.  Cheers, Mike

Hi newbe


Another fantastic find, I can remember visiting this grave alot as a child, going to the cemetery always intrigued me as I would always try to imagine what peoples lives would have been like.
Thanks again for your fantastic help.

Cheers, Mike Nash
