Looking for families of Thomas O'Donnell and Brigid Fahy in Tipperary
Great-great granddaughter in the US is looking for information about the familesof Thomas O'Donnell and Brigid Fahyin County Tipperary. I would love to eventually visit where my ancestors came from. Story goes Thomas said his birthday was Christmas,December 25th, 1919. HiredWaterford Heritage Center to do a search. No Thomas for these dates but found a Thomas O'Donnell baptized in Nov. 1820 at St. Mary's in Clonmel. Shows his parents to be Patrick and Brigid Daniel. No other information listed. I am assuming this is my Thomas O'Donnell. This Thomas married Brigid Fahy in 1845 at SS Peter and Paul, Clonmel. Daughter Mary was baptized in 1847 at SS Peter and Paul. After this no more events appear in any Clonmel records. Thomas and his family lived brieflyin Waterford City before they immigrated in 1848 leaving from Queenstown. Their names appear as residents of Old Durham Road in the town of Glenelg, Grey County, Ontario, Canada in 1848. Farmed 100 acres with his son until hisdeath in 1903. Bridget died in 1894. Any information would be greatly appreciated!
