Sligo / Re: Help finding Thomas FEENEY b. abt 1821 Co. Sligo in the RC records
« on: Wednesday 13 April 16 05:49 BST (UK)  »
There's a Liverpool Feeney family John, Tommy, Bobby would now be in their 70's, their Dad worked in 'The Baggy' home was in the 'Bullring' aka Saint Andrews Gardens and probability is they lived in Liverpool's Irish enclave centered on Saint Albans Parish in Athol Street area just off Great Howard Street. I knew them in 1960's when they'd be in their early 20's to mid 20's.

Wicklow / Re: Family of William O'Kelly & Ann Germaine, Baltinglass
« on: Tuesday 11 September 12 05:13 BST (UK)  »
Wall family have lived in Baltinglass for generations having started off in nearby Dunlavin.

FYI John Wall and Joseph Germaine in past decade have been involved in local development projects.
I suggest you Google John's name and/or contact him @ Germaine's pub/restaurant.

You can drive from one end of Baltinglass to the other in 2 minnutes ~ it's that small of a hamlet and it follows that they all know one another.  You'll also find their names on Baltinglass blogs.

Cutting to the quick the Germaine family is alive and well today in Baltinglass, which leads to the question as to why not contact them direct?  pete

Re:  "My Elizabeth Wall"

Probably not yours but we have one in County Wicklow = Elizabeth Wall B. Dunlavin 1862 and married Michael Gaul @ Saint Josephs in nearby Baltinglass on July 02 1884.

Elizabeth 'Wall' Gaul in 1923 was buried in Liverpool's Ford Cemetery.

PS. There's a recently re-released book that might help, originally published by Dublin's Leinster Press,
Title: The Wall Family in Ireland from 1170 to 1970, Author Hubert Galway ~ I do not known name of the latest publisher but they are in Ireland.

« on: Wednesday 25 May 11 00:40 BST (UK)  »
FYI
There's a chain of McMenanim 'pubs' / restaurants / Hotels in Oregon, USA  = Google McMenanims Restaurants, Oregon and you'll find a bunch.  They started opening them up around 1980.   pete

Wicklow / Re: Lacey of Wicklow
« on: Wednesday 25 May 11 00:31 BST (UK)  »
The WALL family migrated from Dunlavin, Wicklow to work for a while in Dublin and then emigrated to the Capital of Ireland to set up home 'OTB' (over the bridge) which was an Irish enclave close to the docks were, most all of the Irishmen found work.

As kids we ran the horse betting slips from family tables to the back street bookies and, in our case the instructions were pretty clear and that was to deliver the bets and cash to Lacey's. I forget the street name but it was the next one down (south) from Lemon Street which is off Stanley Road, if I recall correctly it was a stones throw from Saint Alophonsus Church. 

Anyhow there was a large Lacey family living in this home and as they were close friends of the WALL family chances are they left Co. Wicklow around same time.  The Lacey I delivered the betting slips to all those years since was probably born around 1900.

Somewhere in the text there was a reference to another WALL family, noting that the subject family is from Wicklow as in Wicklow Town (as opposed to the county) could it be that the Dunlavin WALL family is the other one?

Type 'Edward Wall 1901' in your address bar and it will come up with 1901 census portraying Edward and Kate Wall as owning a Dunlavin, Wicklow home and living with two of their still unmarried sons ~ as to whether or not there's a family link I would not know.

FYI Edward and Kate Wall were my great grandparents
