Patrick McHale Rosmindle, Kilmeena

Hi

My great great grandfather Patrick McHale and his wife Mary lived in Rosmindle, Kilmeena in the1800s.

Patrick died in 1912 and Mary died in 1915. One of their children Michael (My great grandfather) moved to Mountmellick and married Elizabeth Cullen there in 1890. My grandfather Michael was born in 1899. He moved to Clonmel county Tipperary and married Elizabeth Hayes there in 1920. He died in 1938.

I can't find any more information about Patrick or Mary and would be grateful for any information/tips on how to research them further .

Many thanks

Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!

Church records for Kilmeena RC parish appear to be available starting 1858 but they were not microfilmed by the National Library and they are not included on the subscription site Roots Ireland. The local church may have the records. In any event, Patrick and Mary were likely married pre-1858.based on their ages in the 1911 census.

 I did find a Patrick McHale in  the 1855 Griffiths Valuation head of household listing for Kilmeena civil parish. He was shown as living in Rosmindle.  https://www.failteromhat.com/griffiths/mayo/kilmeena.htm  I also checked the Tithe listings for Kilmeena from 1827 but no McHales were listed.

their teachers built the "Franciscan Catechism School". The 3-storey school (13 classrooms and 1 hall) is built according to modern architecture with a length of 32.5m, width of 9.4m, and height of 14.4m. Up to now, the school is about to be completed and put into use.

Hi I recently cam across Patrick and Mary through my ancestry DNA test.  Mary is the daughter of Patrick Malley and Margaret Moran from the townland Cushalogurt Kilmeena, Margaret died in 1882 aged 69yrs of age she was a widow and the informant was her daughter Mary McHale.  I'm not sure how I'm connected but my grt grandmother was Bridget O'Malley I also have a connection to the O'Malleys from Moyer Kilmeena.

I hope this helps

Hi Eileen

Very interested to read your post.

From the details you gave it looks as though Patrick and Margaret Malley (Moran) are my great, great,great, great maternal grandparents. Mary Malley was my great,great,great maternal grandmother. Do you have any more information about them? How are you related to them? Sorry for so many questions.

Look forward to hearing from you. 

Regards

Sorry Lydia I don't have any more information on Patrick and Mary I came across them on the DNA test I did with ancestry.com and tried to find out who they were.  I think Mary is most likely related to my grt.grandmother Bridget O'Malley but I'm not sure how if I find anything else out I'll let you know.
