Hi Michael: Noticed your post and wondered where that area was in Ireland. It isn't very far from the borders of Tipperary and Waterford. My Barry ancestors came either from Tallow, Waterford, or Wexford. Have you a GEDMATCH #? If so, please send it to me by email to *and I will run it against my Gedmatch #. My great-grandfather was John Thomas Barry born in 1820 to Thomas Barry and Bridgid Cosgrove. His siblings were Elizabeth, who married a Noonan and they moved to Boston, USA. Another sister was Mary (no more info on her) and three brothers, Richard, Francis and Nicholas.
Nicholas Barry bapt 29 Mar 1823 Wexford, Rathangan, Ireland
son of Thomas & Bridget Barry
I can't verify that these are my 2nd gt-grandparents but it fits the time period. Anyway, if you would like to exchange Barry information, I would be very glad to help you. Thank you and take care. I live in Prince Edward Island, Canada (PEI) and my Irish surnames are Barry, Collins, Cosgrove, Costin, Lane, Larkin, Mansfield, Murphy, Power, Quinn, Reilly, Sullivan and McCausland. The majority of my Irish ancestors came from Waterford and Cork. Thank you,
Spuddy
