Small / Minogue

Hello!

I am looking for any information on my 4th great grandparents. They were William Small and Winifred Minogue.

I have William was born abt 1802 in Cashel Tipperary, and died 22 March 1868 Castlegar Galway. There is a parish register with this death information but Im needing to verify this.

I have Winifred born abt 1802 and died 1880 Scarriff Ireland. I only have this information from distant cousins on Ancestry.

Their children were Catherine born abt 1825 and married John O'Brien 1856

Mary born abt 1826

Margaret born 1829 and married Patrick Seymour 1853 these are my ggg grandparents

John born abt 1830 and married Catherine Quinn 1853

Honora born abt 1831

These children came to Australia  

I have added a picture of a home as well that has been attached to William Small on Ancestry , would be interesting to find out if its still there.

Thankyou in advance for any help

Hi Lesa . . . 

Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out . . . 

I began searching . . . a fairly reliable search engine .. Roots (paid) . . for any traces of your extended family query . . 

Given the Surname Small . . Wm. . . m. to Winnie Minogue . . plus all the children and their D.O.B.  . . 

I failed to find any thing or anyone . . matching your input . . . in Ireland   ( Roots ...Ireland only )

So next I turned to Ancestry . . . and input the same info.

Here I got some info. which . . may or not . . add to your sum of knowledge . .. 

Name:William Small  Estimated Birth Year:abt 1802   Date of Registration:1868   Death Age:66   Registration District:Thurles   Volume:3Page:519FHL Film Number:101584

This Wm.Small . . . is the Death notice  . . . recorded for THURLES. Co.Tipperary . . . which geographically is close enough to CASHEL. Co.Tipp

____________________________________________________

next . . . Death notice of a Wm.Small . . . 

ViewName:William Small    Event Type:Death     Death Date:22 Mar 1868     Death Place:Castlegar, Galway,      IrelandParish Variants:CarrabrownDiocese:Galway

 

which fits neatly with your info.  ALSO ...

Ancestry . . records the Marriage to John OBrien . . .in Victoria. Aus. ..in 1856 . . . ( no record of any Birth details )

Mary . . b.1826 . . . No clues on Ancestry . . .
