Tobin Researchers in Kilkenny

Hi Tobinkin:

Thank you for your post.  I'm going to add the Tobin post from Kilkenny with the reference to Johnswell here so that there aren't various Tobin family posts all over the message board.

You might continue your search for Tobin family members on the above thread as Mary from Melbourne and others are also researching them.

If you have any further questions, please let me know.

 

Kind regards,

 

Jane

Thanks, Jane

Are there other Tobin researchers you are aware of in kilkenny?

I've found though Roger M on Roots web a Michael Tobin born ca 1836 in Kilkenny.

Any suggestions as to how I determine if he is my kin or no? My Michael Tobin supposedly came to America ( NYC area) as a boy

Thanks.

 

 

 

Dear Tobinkin:

I would recommend that you create an Ancestor Profile for any of your Tobin ancestors on the Ireland XO Chronicles.  These profiles are widely read by our members, updated weekly and they have led to others researching the same families to share and collaborate with one another.  The link to create a profile is below:

Good day all:) Due to Covid 19, and social distancing I've had some time to do some genealogy work and organize my oh so disorganized notes. My Michael Tobin born ca 1836 in Ireland is a real brick wall. I have found few records that positively ID him as my Michael Tobin. My grandfather, John M . Tobin told me he came over as a boy,probably on a ship  from Cork to Liverpool, or directly to US. I have references to Michael Tobins in New York City and a number from Boston Mass area. It's possible he moved to NYC later. Anyway I'm looking to find other Tobin Reserachers who are searcing for Tobins in Ireland, and in New York city USA.A cousin did a DNA test that hints at County Kilkenny for Tobin kin. Most of the Tobins in the 19th century lived in Kilkenny, Waterford, Tipperary and Cork. Look forward to your replies and suggestions. Unfortuantely, I had to postpone my research trip to Ireland since the most important fact I don't have is confirmed location of his Parish, townland, County etc.
