Hi,

Sorry for the late reply. My family were the MARTINs of DERRYNASCOBE and were great friends of the REILLYs. I have a family photo from my aunt’s wedding which Rosie is in. The phot you have posted above, is it of John?

Thanks,

Shaun Martin

Hi,

Sorry this is such a late reply. I guess you may have found many answers in the intervening years, particularly now that the civil records are all available on Irish Genealogy. I just thought I would contact you as I have found an old photo from a family wedding which has Rosie REILLY (sister of John) in it. I thought you might be interested.

My family are the MARTINs of DERRYNASCOBE and were great friends of the REILLYs.

Is the house referred to in this thread Ober House? I am interested in that house and would love to hear something of its history.

Unfortunately there was a lot of that kind of thing that went on back then and it was all political. Generally, the people moved out would have been catholic and those move in would have been protestant. You have the right attitude though in that it is history now and you cannot hold it against the people currently living on land the was historically disputed.

If I come across anything I think might be of further interest, I will let you know.

Thanks for your response. I will ask around in my family to see if we have any further information for you. I have an Aunt who married into our family but her maiden name was also Martin when she married my Uncle. I believe that her family were from up at the Rock Chapel. Also, I have a cousin who married into a family called Babbington and they built their house on the Babbington family land which is up in that area.

I have heard of the Reillys. They were about half way down the road from what I remember. There was Rosie and Barney and I think maybe another brother that might have been called Joe. My Dad was one of the Martins and he left home and moved to England in the 1950s. I remember hearing about when the field fell in.

My family are the Martins that lived in Derrynascobe at the end of the Old Bog Road. There are a lot of Martins in Magheracloone. They had to give them all nick names. My family were called the Prandie Martins because my Great Grandfather was called Proinsias (Francis). I know of another family that were alled the Duck Martins.
