Hi Cyril!

I would love to share what I have and hear what you have on the Burke & Feerick families! I also have Walsh in my family! I have a copy of my GGrandparents marriage certificate. They were Patrick Burke & Eleanor Fearock. His father was Thomas Burke (herdsman)and hers was Michael Fearock(landowner). They were married in 1972. It was his 2nd marriage and her 1st. I think he was married to her sister and she must have passed away and then he married Ellen to take care of the children he already had.
 I'm stuck on Patrick! I don't know his mother or other siblings  names!
I look forward to hearing from you again!
Patty

Hi Heywood!
 Thank you so much for your reply! You see my problem!! I think I am the only person searching for this Burke/Feerick family!  I don't think anyone has even heard of Frenchgrove, Hollymount!!
You know the sad thing is I still have family that lives there and they still have the house my Grandfather was born in!  Unfortunately, they aren't into the family thing! I wish they had email,maybe I could persuade them into helping me!
 The info on Maggie's site on my Feerick's actually came from me!
I had chatted with her along time ago and filled her in on my Feerick's.  I also gave a relative of mine,Jim, her website and he shared his Feerick info along with mine too!  He and I are trying to prove how we are connected!
 This family stuff is so frustrating! Anyway, I really appreciate your help!
Hope to chat with you again soon!
Patty :)

Hi I'm new!  I've been on here all night reading all the messages! What a Great site! 
I was hopeing someone could help me! I've been stuck on this for so long!
 My Great Grandfather Patrick Burke lived in Frenchgrove,Hollymount in Co. Mayo. (Frenchgrove, Mayo Kilmaine Kilcommon Ballinrobe Connaught)  I'm trying to find out his Mother and siblings. His father was Thomas Burke
He was married twice. 1st to Bridget Feerick?  2nd to Eleanor(Ellen) Fearock(Feerick).  They were married in 1872. He was 29yrs old, a widower and a herder.   I was told by the Mayo History Center Patrick's 1st wife was Ellen's Sister.  They had 2 sons (and 1 daughter I think) Bridget I assume died after having 2nd son Tom in 1871. 
On Ellen & Patrick's marriage certificate her father is listed as Michael, a landowner. She was from Cahernablauhy, Mayo Kilmaine Ballinrobe Ballinrobe Connaught. Her Mother was Mary Mullins, supposedly!
Any info on Patrick Burke would be greatly appreciated,especially his birth info!
And any info on Ellen & Bridget would be a nice bonus!

Thanks!
Patty
