Dwyer Family of Pallasgreen & Templebredon
Hi,
I am searching for information on my great-great-grandmother, Johanna Dwyer, particularly her date of birth and parents and I am assuming she was from Pallasgreen & Templebredon.
She was married to Richard Ryan. I have found a marriage record stating 26 May 1845 at Pallasgreen & Templebredin. It also lists the residence for both of them as Derk.
I have also found baptismal records for 10 children born between 1846 and 1866. All records state the parish as Pallasgreen & Templebredin and most have the residence as Knockeravella. This agrees with their daughter Mary's marriage certificate in NSW, Australia with place of birth as Pallasgreen.
A death record for Richard Ryan states he died 27 Jan 1909 at Knockeravella, which also agrees with newspaper notice of Mary's marriage in 1903 having her father living at Knockeravilla.
A death record for Johanna states she died 2 Mar 1892, aged 67 at Knockeravella, therefore she was probably born late 1824/early 1825.
A previous IrelandXO volunteer (IrelandXO / Ryan - Dwyer Family of Pallasgreen) thought Johanna may have been baptised in 18 Apr 1813 to William Dwyer and Mary Quirke, as sometimes the second son is named after the mother's father. However that would make her 79yrs in 1892 and 53 years old when she had her last child Daniel, therefore I think this is an unlikely record.
I am having trouble finding records for a Johanna Dwyer born c1824-1825.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Cathryn
