Long overdue update on my Kiernan’s from Maughera, Cavan:
Following the good advice from FlowersFromCavan, I found marriage record of my ggp Patrick (son of Edward) KIERNAN and Bridget (daughter of Philip) FLOOD, married 1872 in Castlerahan, Oldcastle, Cavan.
And I found baptism/birth records for their 12 children:
John, b.1873
Henry, b.1874 (1874 baptisms missing), emigrated 1904 to the Bronx, New York,
married Sarah Egan 1922. Sarah died shortly after birth of their son.
Edward, b.1876
Mary Elizabeth, b.1878, emigrated ~1902 to the Bronx, married John Kenny, 2 sons, died 1936?
Bridget, b. 1880, apparently died after 1881 and before 1886
Julia , b.1881, emigrated before 1908 to Manhattan/New Jersey
James, b. ~1882, at Maughera in 1901 and 1911
Eugene, b. 1883
Philip Joseph, b. 1884
Bridget Mary, b. 1886, emigrated 1908 to New York, settled in New Jersey, married
Daniel Francis (Frank) Hogan in 1913, 6 children, died 1971.
Ann b. 1888, at Maughera in 1901 and 1911
Patrick, b. 1891, at Maughera in 1901 and 1911
Some of the baptism sponsors: Simon Kiernan, Henry Kiernan, Mary Kiernan, John Kiernan, Mary Flood, and Mary Anne Plunket.
If any of this looks familiar, would love to hear from you.
Thank you
