Name of local churc for Killincarrig Greystones

[dillonking]

I'm fairly sure that I have located my greatgrandparents who would have been living in Killincarrig, Greystones in 1911. I was just wondering if anyone might know the name of the nearest catholic church to that address?

The RC parish for the area around Killincarrig is  Kilquade Parish  (Irish Times Family History)

It's located in the civil parish of Delgany - click on '...listing of placenames within this parish' link to see locations included.

Records for the parish are available on microfilm in the National Library in Dublin, on Pos. 6478

There are several chapels of ease located in the parish but the parish church is St. Patrick's in the town also named Kilquade, which is just about 4km south of Killincarrig.

p.s. I've also seen the townland written as Killincarrick

Thank you so much for all those details Shane. I must say I am guessing now that my Burgess grandfather probably met Margaret Toole near Delganey. Annie (née Burgess) Mahoney lived in the Burgess family home in Delaganey whilst John Burgess and Margaret Toole eventually moved to Crumlin in around 1932. The plot thickens!

some of my own family (Fitzsimon/Clarke) lived in Killincarrig - they ran a drapery shop in the village.

That's interesting! My great cousin Jacky Mahoney lived and died (last year) in Delgany. He was a stewerd at the golf club for years and years. Unfortunately I don't have any remaining relatives to ask about the draper's shop!

I've just found his funeral details. The mass was at St. Mochonog's church in Kilmacanogue. Do you know this church by any chance?

The Church is actually in Kilmacanogue.
I took a view of the Church from the Cemetery behind the Church,  See

There are four pages of headstones at Kilmacanogue on the IGP Website.

are you sure ?  I missed comment on the previous reply from dillonking with the Kilmacanogue refernce.

Kilmacanogue was originally the parish which covered Bray and is now in the parish of Enniskerry. I believe Kilquade is a separate parish. See :

 Kilquade Parish Church
 
 Enniskerry Parish History

p.s. thanks for the Kilmacanogue 'new' cemetery photos - some of my relatives are buried there.

Sorry Shane.  I was just adding information on account of this comment:-

"I've just found his funeral details. The mass was at St. Mochonog's church in Kilmacanogue. Do you know this church by any chance?"

I should have made that clear.     You are right about Kilmacanogue being attached to Enniskerry.

You will also find photos and text of headstones at Kilquade on the IGP Website, with more to come for Kilquade.   I was down there recently and recorded some more to add to those already sent to IGP.

sorry about that!

I didn't see that comment about St. Mochonog's yesterday... maybe it was an edit.



Shane

p.s. did you ever take any photo's of the old cemetery in Kilmacanogue  ?
