O'Connor/Connor, Carrigg, Tierney, Fitzgerald of Lisdoonvara/Kililagh and Kilshanny

Dear Blondie:

Thank you for your post.  I do recall your earlier post several years ago.

 

You may not know about the transcription work that has been done by volunteers through the Clare Library.  A large number of the catholic parish registers are now transcribed and online at the Clare Library website.  For your reference, the registers of Killilagh (Lisdoonvarna) are here:

http://www.clarelibrary.ie/eolas/coclare/genealogy/don_tran/bmd/lisdoon_parish_marriage_records.htm

Kilshanny resources are here:

I note that you mention Carnane townland and Ballyvara townland and they are in the Killilagh civil parish.  

If you have any other questions, please let me know.  The registers are downloadable and they can be crosschecked with the NLI digital scans.

Kind regards,

Jane

Hi, I have Carrigg's in Australia who have been a bit of a brick wall for me. So far I have managed to find the names of Patrick Carrigg and Hannah Quinlan born about 1813, place unknown. They travelled to Australia in 1857 with their son Patrick John, Martin and Thomas. Patrick John is my 3rd great grandfather, I don't have his birthplace but know it to be Galway. He married Honora O'Leary in Australia, she was from Rathmore, County Kerry. 

The surnames you mentioned keep popping up for me and we also have DNA matches to NZ that I haven't been able to place. 

I'm just wondering if you are on Ancestry at all? I have a big tree there and my family DNA kits. 

Hello,
I am on Ancestry . I manage my DNA, ( I'm under Colleen Clark) , my Aunt's ,patricia Jurek, sister, Cynthia Millett, and my son and niece, but if we matched, it will probably be those 3 accounts. My tree is called Colleen Clark tree , but it's really hard to find trees on there. My user name is CBobrow. Carrigg is not very common so I'm sure we are related.
Let's figure it out.
Thanks, Colleen

My name on there is Christine Fox, my dad is Allan Fox. My main tree is private at the moment but it's called My Family Tree (check tags for hypothesis). I've been adding some wayward things on there to try and push through some brick walls. I've struggled a bit with the Carrigg's as i'm not 100% convinced the line doesn't involve broken parentage. It would be great to work with you on it all. 

Could you invite me to view your tree? My email is beanie3557@aol.com.
Thanks, Colleen

Do you have the name Eastaughffe anywhere. A daughter of my 3rd great uncle Patrick Carrigg and Nora Mcmahon, Mary ( Molly)moved to Australia and married a Francis Eastaughffe. Different Patrick from yours .
Colleen

Hi again, I sent you an invite to my tree. Hope you got it. I don't have Eastaughffe in my tree.
