Thomas Nevin’s Ancestors

[Formernewyorker]

Hi,

Still researching through baptisms hoping to find my grandfather Thomas Nevin and his parents Thomas Nevin and Ellen Shruhan births.

I did find these, may not be relevant but wanted to know what you think. Don’t know how to send link from registers.nil.ie.

I found a Jacobus Shruhan baptism on 9/8/1840 Roscommon & Kilteevan Microfilm 04614/05, page 33, showing parents if I am reading it correctly Jacobi & Mariae Ward. Could Jacobi be James Shruhan (my great grandmother’s father) and Mariae Ward his wife, my great grandmother’s mother)

I also found in the same microfilm, page 78 a baptism of Catherineinam Nephin on 10/13/1844 with parents Michael & Catherine Nephin. (Again not sure if I am reading correctly). The thing that made a connection to me is that is godparents are underneath, it read John Shruhan and Eliza Scully. Could Catherineinam be a sister to my great grandfather since Thomas Nevin married a Shruhan? Let me know what you think?

Found another baptism for Shruhan on 9/18/1839. Cannot understand the record. Microfilm 04614/05,
Page 23.

Can you help decipher?

18th September 1839
Annam SHRUAN
Gulielmi et Onoria (?) DODY (?)
Lanesborough st...... (Are last 2 letters ss written as fs?)
Sp. Michale MOORE,  Maria  DO....L....

My translation:
Ann SHRUAN of William & Onoria DODY
Lanesborough st.......
Sponsors Michael Moore, Maria/Mary DO.......
"Onoria" may be Honor/Honoria/Nora

When writing a date would you please write the month in letters to avoid confusion? E.g. 9/8/1840 in your previous post is 9th August 1840 to me. Then I saw the next date you wrote 10/13/1844 which puzzled me for a moment as there is no 13th month, before realising that 13th is the day of the month and the first figure in each of your dates is the number of the month.

Baptism 8th September 1840
James SHRUHAN, James & Maria Ward
John SHRUHAN, Maria WARD
There are 2 words on 2nd line. First looks like "vaga" meaning something like wanderer/traveller/ no fixed abode/stranger/doesn't live in parish. I can't decipher 2nd word. It was written on several baptisms on the page; maybe name of priest? I though at first it was something like "nup..." indicating parents were married but it was usually written "conj.(ugam)" in Latin.

You're probably correct that Eliza's surname is Scully.
Residence "Lansbr..." may be same as for baptism of Ann Shruan 1839 in reply 92.

I apologize about the dates. Thank you for your response.

I was trying to figure out if the Nephin and Shruhan in reply #92 and #93 are additions to my family. I know from reply #23 the Shruhan Family (my great grandmother is Ellen Shruhan) and great grandfather is Thomas Nevin.

Since the Shruhan lived at Lanesboro Street/Ave, and a Catherine born at Lanesboro with parents Michael & Catherine if I am reading your response correct, wondering if Michael & Catherine could be my great grandfather parents too.

Maybe the Shruhan and Nephin (another variation of Nevin) were neighbors and that is how my great grandparents met.

Thanks again for any help.

I have no birth or death record for my great grandfather Thomas Nevin. I have death records only for my great grandmother Ellen Shruhan Nevin and my grandfather Thomas Nevin.

I found a Thomas Nevin, but am I reading this right. Is he a godparent in this record. Roscommon & Kilteevan, page 62 May, 27, 1843. If not, can you explain? Thank you.
