DAVID FITZGERALD

Born
1837-01-01 12:00:00
Died
1906-11-20 12:00:00
Gender
Male

David married 14 Feb 1863 Elizabeth Nolan (Doon) they had all their 18 children in Moroe Boher.  David ran a farm in Turagh same farm as John Fitzgerald did on the 1850's Griffiths records & Tithe 1826 records.  I presume in those days for David to get the farm he was an heir and son of John??  

It was said that David's brother was John born c 1830 married Bridget Coffey, but I have no proof that they are brothers....this maybe brother John lived in Dromsallagh.

I would like confirmation as to Davids father, would it be John because of the inheritance of the farming land, there is even Edmond Fitzgerald who married Margaret Bourke who had a David & John (names used in the family come down the line as if to say).  I do not know if there is a marriage cert for David that will state his father due to it was pre civil records in 1864

I would be wonderful if there were other kin in Ireland who may know a smidge more information on this family.  I have details of David & children and the 5 who came to Australia, as I am a descendant of Davids son John b 1868 line.

 

Thank you

    Irish press warns against Jamaican Indentured Servitude

    <p>The theme was always the same: the pestilential climate of the island, the reduction of poor emigrants to slaves, the severity and cruelty of the planters (and planter-dominated Assembly clinging to every vestige of oppression) and, of course, the absence of priests and chapels.</p>
