Hello Margot! Thank you for responding and please excuse my delay in answering your questions. I am not sure what might have happened to Edmund and Margaret Fogerty nor am I sure that the person in the records is a match and simply a coincidence of names. There are other Edmond/Margaret combinations (Derrinlaur, for example) that I do not believe to be a match, however I cannot verify.
I do know that their daughter Johanna emigrated to the US, possibly with a brother, Timothy. I do know her approximate birth year was 1830+-. I find baptismal records for Timothy 1827 and Judy 1829 in Clongariff. There appears to be an Edmund 1831, Denis 1833, Catherine 1835, and Patrick 1838. My relative did not go by the name Judy although I previously posed the question regarding the names Johanna and Judy and it seems Judy may have been a nickname. Johanna married another Tipperary emigrant (Dwyer from Cappawhite) in NY.
I have a lot of DNA connections to the Loughmore/Thurles region with the Fogerty name, however distant. I also have many Cappawhite DNA connections but I am certain they are from the Dwyer side of the family. Along the same vein as my original question, would Tipperary town and its outskirts have been a stretch for someone from Thurles? I found another Edmund Fogerty record or two from Thurles (for Larceny) but I wonder if the baptismal records from Cappawhite/Clongariff could be the same family/people. I am not sure how I can possible verify this so any input is greaty appreciated!
Best regards!
