Nenagh Donohoes
« on: Tuesday 09 March 10 17:00 GMT (UK) »
Slater’s Directory 1846 for Nenagh shows the following Donohoe’s in business:
John Donohoe - Baker & Publican at 61 Castle St & 45 Castle St.
Michael Donohoe – Baker at 45 Castle St
Michael Donohoe  [the same as above?] – Hat Maker at Dublin Rd
Thomas Donohoe – Stone Mason & Cutter at 4 Summer Hill
Margaret Donohoe – China & Glass at 104 Pound St.
James Donohoe – Tailor at 50 Pound St.
Patrick Donohoe living at 60 Summer Hill about this time.
Does anyone know how these people are related – wives, parents?
I would be interested to know.

There is stuff about Patrick Frank Donohoe, a miller's son from Nenagh. lived 1840 to 1909 on this link

I would be quite wary about that thread, a lot of it is hearsay/supposition
Grant in Tipperary
Piper in Tipperary
Blong in Leix
Watson in Offaly
Pugh in North Wales
Evans in North Wales
Proctor in Edinburgh
Steedman in Stirling

Thanks Corisande. I was aware of the Griffiths information and the O'Donoghue forum and yes I did post re PD VC. However it gets me no where! I would have thought that someone out there might have a tree that included some of these Donohoes! The PD VC was a wildcard who in all probability would have been related to the Patrick Donohoe I am looking for. I find it particularly strange that no one has claimed links to PD VC - no parents or siblings. The search goes on....!

Thanks Kay
My Patrick Frank Donohoe 1840-1909 joined the army in 1858 in Nenagh - this from his service record. Family folklore says he came from Nenagh but after quite a few years I have found nothing to substantiate this as fact. When he married in Winchester the marriage certificate shows his father as Patrick Donohoe, a mercantile clerk, deceased. I am still searching for his parents and siblings without success.
Regards
