Lyne/Lynes/Lyons/Lyon of Tracton

Hello Roby,

 

You have shared three posts on your ancestors from Tracton Abbey parish. Those Church Records are free to view online. Go to churchrecords.irishgenealogy.ie.  A link at the bottom of the page will take you to the original handwritten entry.

Baptisms were recorded from 1802-1880 & Marriages 1841-1880 for this parish. Dates for other areas vary. Civil Records began in 1864.

Timothy Lyne and Mary McCarthy had three children; Patrick 1803; Mary 1806 & Timothy 1809. I cannot see a son John but he may have been born pre 1802.

And John Lynn and Catherine Callahan married before records were kept.

Several Catherine Callahan’s and Callaghan’s in this and adjoining parishes. I cannot be sure which girl married John Lyne but the closest match appears to be Catherine baptised 27/06/1840 to John Callaghan & Mary Lombard.

Children of John and Catherine include: Mary 27/01/1831, Margaret 27/08/1832, Ellen 06/07/1842 and Julia 14/07/1845. Others may show up if you vary the surname spelling.

Have you noticed the boxes at the top of this page on IrelandXO? By entering Cork in the county box, then Tracton in the parish box, you will see other queries posted on local families.

If you would like further assistance or wish to share you can contact our group directly on tractonfamilyhistory@gmail.com.

Roby, Well, its been a few years since you wrote that last post but I have only recently discovered this message board. I am a Lyons and wonder if there is a possibility we are dna related. Do you have a Gedmatch kit #?

Hello, 

Have you taken a DNA test on Ancestry? 
Where are you located? I have done extensive work on the Lyons/ Lynes  

My family emigrated to Monson MA. 

I do not have Gedmatch #

Hope to hear back from you. 
Roby

Bernadette, 

Thank you. I see I did not reply  to thank you.  I have since located a lot of information.  Thank you again
