Looking for Hogan relatives from Borrisokane County Tipperary

[mrspryz]

Hi
I am looking for any information about my father's family from Borrisokane, County Tipperary, Ireland.
My father John (Sean) Patrick Hogan was born in Borrisokane on May 18, 1927. His father was Christopher Hogan (DOB ? 1899) and his mother was Hanna Hogan (nee Maloney) (1888-1967). My father has very little information about his father Christopher...ie parents names or number of siblings.
 Hanna and Christopher immigrated to California in 1923 but returned to Borrisokane in 1924. The ship records of their arrival at Ellis Island New York in 1923 lists their nearest relative in Ireland as Christopher's father, Michael Hogan- cottage Finnoe (or Fimoe) Road, Borrisokane.
The 1911 census of Ireland shows a Michael Hogan and wife Rosie and their 10 children (one being 14 year old Christopher) living at House 2 in Shesheraghmore, Borrisokane, County Tipperary.
This could be my grandfather Christopher....
Any information would be appreciated.
Thank you.

Looking on the OSI map, Finnoe Is marked on the modern map but not on the older maps, it is in the townland of Shesheraghmore.
So looks like you have the correct family in 1901

And 1911

Where they say they are married 25 years
Rose Ann is from Wicklow, they could have married there.

There are two possibles for his wife but may be the same person

Of course it would make more sense to find Christopher's birth first

[Sinann]

This looks good for his birth

The other children should be on this list

The only way to be sure this is the correct family is to find Christopher's marriage.
(I'm going backwards today for some reason)

Scarriff is a Co. Clare district, is there anything to indicate Hanna was from Clare?

Hi Sinann
Thank you for your reply. Wow....you are quick to get results!  Yes, Hanna was from Killaloe, County Clare....nee Hanna Maloney. I have found a record of Hanna and Christopher's marriage in Scarriff in 1922.
I know a fair bit about Hanna's side of the family but very little about Christopher. My father has no recollection of Christopher's parents and siblings being present in his life when he was growing up in Ireland. In fact, he does not even know if his father Christopher had siblings.
It seems Christopher Hogan is not a very common name, so you are probably correct about the census results being "my" Hogans!
Cheers.

A search of the RootsIreland website index brings back the civil marriage registered in 1885 in Borrisokane for Michael Hogan and Rose Byrns, using the index shows that Michael's father was Thomas Hogan and that Rose's father was Andrew Byrns. It also brings back a church marriage in the same year for Michael Hogan and Rose Byrne in Bossisokane RC parish.

A search of the index also brings back the following baptisms, all in Borrisokane RC parish, for parents input as Michael Hogan and Rose Byrns/Byrne: Mary 1886; Sarah 1891; Patrick 1896; Christopher 1897; Agnes 1898; Ellen 1904; Bridget 1905.
