Ball Family

[shanew147]

I think that O'Donohoe/Caffrey marriage is from the IrishGenealogy website rather than FamilySearch.

see : Marriage of John Jos O Donohoe & Margt Caffrey - 12 July 1894
        Parish : St. Mary's RC, Dublin City (Pro-Cathedral, Marlborough St.)

My Crew is looking for Ball Family under another topic, Drumcondra Cemetery. I have tried to post a link to this topic on that one but, am not so good at that so maybe if I reactivate this thread My Crew will see it.

Hi
    I am a descendant of Thomas Dingle and Margaret Howard origns Baldoyle since 1760s and Fairfield ,Glasnevin their descendants are neighbours of the Ball family 1901 and 1911 including my grandmother Mary Kennedy age 12 staying with the Dingle's in 1901.
They had a son Thomas born circa 1867 and i was wondering if he is the same Thomas married to Jane Ball whos children appear on Irish Genealogy 1894 to 1899 and 1901 Census of  10 Cumberland St listed as
Thomas Dingle age 33
Jane age 32 nee Ball
Anne age 1
Anne Ball age 81 mother in law ,is this your James mother? by 1911 this family seem obliterated with two of the children buried Glasnevin Thos Joseph born 1898 died 3months Margaret born 1894 died 1898 age 3
Anne born 1899 may be at 12 Main St,Celbridge with a sister ? Kate in foster care? in 1911.
Thomas the father seems to be back with the Dingle family in Findlater St in 1911 but he has'nt aged much since 1901
Jane appears to be buried in Glasnevin in 1909 age 37.
any thoughts on this connection or just coincidence.

Ran a search on Family search and found a Jane Ball born 1869 dtr of John Ball and Anne Kearns at Cody Lane Either Thomas Dingle or one or two of his siblings were born at Cody Lane in the 1860s.

I noticed that by the 1911 census James Ball is married to Kate and living with son James 2 years at 15 Millbourne Avenue. His remaining family are living at number 9 Millbourne Ave and again the Dingle connection with John Dingle aged 9 living at number 9 with perhaps his father Christopher living with the Kennedy's at number 11.

That link to Cody Lane is exciting.
Found on Irish Genealogy, Mary Ball, Glasnevin, born 8/12/1858, baptised St Michans 13/12/1858,
parents John Ball and Anne Kearns
and Anne Josephine Ball address incorrect as Cony Lane born 18/11/1863 baptised 20/11/1863 St Michans.
James Ball is 64 in the 1911 census estimated birth 1847 and he gives his birth Place as Glasnevin, he could be the eldest child of your Anne Ball.

Had a good fiddle around on Irish Genealogy and Family Search and have come to the possible conclusion that these are all related through Kearns line,having members of Ball family as sponsors etc,some of the names have various spellings.

baptism Bridget Mary Wallbridge 1875 Cody Lane sponsors James Ball and Margaret Allen
George Wolderidge 1866 Cody Lane sponsors James and Ann Ball.
Children of Philip Allen and Mary Kearns on Irish Genealogy
and a possible step further up the Kearns Tree
Marriage of Catherine Kearns dtr of Andrew and Margaret Kearns ,Corry Lane to Owen Weldridge 1865.
