Hi Anne,

I have been trying to find family of my great grandparents who migrated to New Zealand in 1875. They were Patrick and Ann(n. Sinnott) Keegan. It often happened that several members of one family married members of another family, siblings married siblings. I wonder if there is a possibility that we have a common ancestor and would be interested in any feedback. My great grandparents had children who were baptised in Kilmuckridge and Gorey and also lived in Courtdown Harbour before embarking for New Zealand. Patrick Keegan was born in 1837 and Anne Sinnott in 1839. Both died in NZ. Patrick had a sister Ellen who married John Connor and migrated to NZ earlier than 1875.

Regards - Peter

Possibly your relatives.  Hope this is of some help to you.

Irish civil registrations (1845-1958) went on-line this week (February 2009).  You can search for individuals or just surnames at:

http://pilot.familysearch.org/recordsearch/start.html#p=2;t=searchable;c=1408347

I too have families originating in Ferns and Camolin and Ballycanew and Gorey etc etc, but no Burkes it would appear.

Good luck.

Hi
I have been researching my Grandad, John (Jack) Burke b1908 and his parents Patrick b1800 & Margaret (Maggie) Mythen b 1881. I have recently received a copy of the 1911 Census for him and have found out the names of his siblings for the first time.
Patrick b 1902
James b 1903
Charles b 1906
Maggie b 1909
They lived in Mounthoward Lower, Monamolin, Gorey Co. Wexford.
My Grandad died in 1997 and until I started my quest no one in the family knew anything about his Irish family at all, which is funny seeing that he had 6 children. Does anybody out there know of the family or better still are doing research as well and may have any of them in their tree. I would really appreciate any infomation as living in the UK it is very hard to do any kind of research.
Cheers
Westy


My grandmother was Margaret Burke, from Mt. Howard born 1882
Her Parents were:  Patrick Burke and Margaret Swords Mt. Howard
