Dublin / Re: Flood Family Red Cow and Clondalkin

Hello
In Bluebell cemetery there is a headstone with the following inscription:
This Stone is erected to the memory
of Mrs Mary Berry who departed this
life the 29th day of May 1818, aged 27 years
The corresponding death notice in the Freeman's Journal (which matches the date of death on the headstone) states that she died, after a long illness, at the residence of her father in Fox & Geese, Dublin.
I have a gut instinct that Mary Berry was a Flood. If the age on her headstone is correct then, judging by the stated ages of her husband's children, I think she may have been the second wife of Patrick Berry.
If you happen to have any records of any conections to the Berry family, I would be very interested.
Thank you

hi I've got a Sophia fawcett/fossett married to a catholic John Hyland having children together in Philipstown ( daingean in the 185os and 1860s). It sounds as if they are linked. Some of their childsren had quite unusual names for a catholic family of the time (Henrietta, Henry, George Stephen and Charlotte)

Dublin / Bluebell Cemetery

Does anyone have any reason to visit Bluebell cemetery in Dublin by any chance? I've discovered from Egan's/Flatman's transcriptions that a headstone for a great great great grandmother who died in 1818 was there when they recorded their transcriptions and I'd love a photograph of the headstone if anyone happened to be visiting the cemetery.
For anyone with connections around that Fox & Geese/Clondalkin area, check the transcriptions for this usually overlooked cemetery. I struck lucky - the details transcribed from the headstone match the death notice I had from the 1818 edition of the Freeman's Journal except that the transciption had the great bonus of including her christian name

Interesting. We are somehow related to the Haromons of Queen Street, though distantly.

So where do the Harmons come into the picture?
