Edward Madden and wife Eliza Hanley

Ancestry gives information regarding the marriage of Edward and Eliza. It states that Edward was the son of Andrew Madden and that Eliza was the daughter of Marie/Mary McKuen.  I don't know why only these two parents were named.  I hope this helps.

When Griffith's Valuation of Roscommon was taken in 1857-58, there were two Andrew Maddens in the county, as follows. This might be a clue to where your Edward was born.

Griffith Madden Andrew Tuam Kilgefin Co. Roscommon
Griffith Madden Andrew Leitrim Tibohine Co. Roscommon

1825

In the Tithe Applotment Books, there was an Andy Madden listed in the townland of Leitrim in the parish of Tibohine in Co. Roscommon:

Madden         Andy  Leitrim           Tibohine        Roscommon  1825

1796

In the 1796 Flax Growers List, the following Maddens were listed:

Madden            Andrew               Boyle                Roscommon

Madden            Andrew               Esternow             Roscommon

Madden            Denis                Kilglass             Roscommon

Madden            John                 Kiltoom              Roscommon

Madden            Owen                 Tibohine             Roscommon

Madden            Thomas               Creeve               Roscommon

Madden            Thomas               Kilglass             Roscommon

One—Owen—was in Tibohine. There were two Andrews, one in Boyle and one in Esternow.

Wow!  What a wonderful set of helpful responses. Much appreciated that you would  take the trouble to do thos and so promptly. I was intrigued if Eliza was short for Elizabeth or not. She had a daughter Eliza (referred to in one snippet as Eliza Junior)  and her family had many of Elizabeths/ Eliza -- on one Census  I think there were four  in one household of different  generations and one for god measure through a marriage mistakenly recorded as stepdaughter not daughter in law just to confuse. Let me digest this information her and follow up. Many thanks! 
 

Further to my previous posts I have found what I believe is the prior generation to Edward.  

Hi

I have just recently found I have DNA connections to Tibohine Maddens..Anyone else share this Surname Tibohine.?

I also have Co.. Roscommon ancestors who emigrated to Durham, married there around 1847-1849 and some children born there before leaving for the US a few years later.  There are Madden and Hanley among the sponsors/witnesses for church records-St. Cuthbert's RC in New Elvet, Durham City.

I have found information via good DNA matches with ties to both Durham and elsewhere that they and my Kelly ancestors were likely from Kilgefin Parish in Roscommon.  I see that one reply here lists a Tuam, Kilgefin location as a possibility for you and name of McKuen.  There are McKeons in Kilgefin from that time period (not my McKeons btw) so that may be a place to look into for your Hanly and Madden family.

Hello Brian (All)

I am returning to the ancestor research after a pause

As mentioned by Patricia the original handwritten marriage record ( in photo) is certainly my great-great-grandparent’s marriage in St Cuthburt’s RC church in Durham City since there is full history of them and their sons (my great grandfather) thereafter right through to death in country Durham.

What is confusing is my cousin and I have found a handwritten image ( attached) of original parish ledger (looks to be digital copy of microfiche) of baptism of an Elizabeth (Hanly) daughter of Patrick in Kilteevan parish Co Roscommon in 1839 but the mother of Elizabeth is given on that as Margaret Flanigan. Could be we are off beam with latter if Hanly surname is common there? The first name on baptism is Elizabeth but she seemed known as Eliza? Or perhaps at the wedding in Durham decades later the named mother Mary McEuen is Eliza’s step-mother? Name of her father is not given in the wedding record so perhaps dead but presumably he was a Hanly —other McEuen are the witnesses to Durham City marriage 1863.

Any information you or the wider community have about the McEuen McKeon family or the other records of their time in Ireland or in Durham would be of interest.

My cousin and I are trying to go back to time when the Hanly (Hanley) McEeon and particularly our shared lineage Madden’s lived in Co Roscommon Ireland keen to know when they left Ireland and how end up in Co Durham.

thanks
