Schoolmaster and family, Curravarahane School, Cork
I've been searching for yeard for the family of my 3rd great grandmother- I knew her parents were John Fitzgerrard Smyth / Smith prob b. 1800-1810ish) ( and his wife Emily (Campbell or Burns). I knew John was a schoolmaster, and the names of some of his children. With a name John Smith I have "found " them only via notations on their children's marriage records, in England.Then DNA led me to a son, William, b.1839,...his obit states place of birth Cork, Ireland! Luckily, one census survives there, theBallymodan Protestant Census of 1846.The whole family is listed, including my Harriet! I believe John is still in Cork for Griffiths, in 1853, but that's all I've found. Now I'm wondering if there is some sort of directory of teachers, or teachers training information for within Ireland? Any other resources I'm unaware of that might lead me to other information? Thanks so much for suggestions.
