Ballyfeeny Bumlin

Thanks Roger for info on the landlord.
Marriage - I had that. Just trying to establish genuine older siblings of Bridget Feeny . I did wonder if Pat Feeny had been married twice as his three older children with Eli Cline were quite a bit older than the children recorded on 1901 census, which are definitely related to me.
Then the Mc Dermotts are another puzzle... James' parents were Martin McDermott from Pollymount and Margaret McDermott (from where?) which makes it trickier when looking at sponsors etc and trying to verify the trail back.
I shall post some info on James and Bridget's daughter Tess tomorrow. She was my great grandmother and godmother and was active in Cumann na mBan.

Sorry Roger. Don't know how I missed that last msg from you. Martin, Anne and Kate Feeny's mother is not listed in the census. They are definitely my great grandmother's siblings. Nor can I find the death registration for their father Pat Feeny, post 1901.
Anyway my current query is why I can't seem to get on Griffiths for Ballyfeeny, Bumlin. I know that Ballyfeeny borders Pollymount and i can see my great great grandfather Martin McDermott and his brother/uncle Thomas on Pollymount Griffiths 1857. They are not listed on Ballyfeeny Kilglass Griffiths.
However the landed estate files (which won't open for me) state both Martin and Thomas McDermott in 1857 as "Ballyfeeny, Pollymount".
How can I see this small Bumlin section of Ballyfeeny?
A puzzle to me.
Hope all is well your end.
Thanks a million. Fionn

Hi Roger, Hurrah you found them. Yes these are my Patrick Feeny and Martin McDermott, both my great great grandfathers.

However, I've been on askaboutireland with no success for the small Ballyfeeny (Bumlin) townland. I've tried via Bumlin, via all the names including Daniel Ferrell... Its like this little strip is blocked to me.

Is there any way you could send me a direct link please and I'll try to access the info that way?

Thanks a million. Fionn

Hi Roger no I can't get in that way either. It just only comes up with the Kilglass Ballyfeeny no matter what combination of place or family names I put in. It's a mystery.
I can see the Ballyfeeny Bumlin list of names and townlands on the FáilteRomhat site and Ballyfeeny and Martin McDermott are there, but it doesn't tell me what plot number or how many acres. That way I could see if the Ballyfeeny plot borders Martin's Pollymount plot. Would you be able to tell me these please.
Imeanwhile I'm going to email askaboutoreland.ie and see if I've somehow blocked that entry.
Thanks again.

Thank you Roger. I've notified askaboutireland as there were others who couldn't access this record. Have a lovely day. Fionn
