Tuite's of Meath

I have several different connections to the Tuite family from Meath Ireland.

I believe these connections are linked to the same family by way of siblings or cousins.

The family concerned seems to come from around Tallaughstown, Athboy & Dunderry.

There is a family that consists of: Bridget, Mary, Patrick, Oliver, Edward & Pat/Cat.

The Edward I have is married to Ellen Connell/O'Connell.

The doubt comes up as to whether or not the Edward I have is part of this family or is a relative of this family.

Oliver Tuite & Catherine Quigly/Quigley are the suggested parents for the above names.

There appears to be a few Edwards born about the same time my Edward was born thus, causing the confusion of who he belongs to.

The birth year is around 1838 to 1845.

One concept I have had is that the father Oliver had a sibling & my Edward is from him making a cousin relationship.

My other connection to the Tuite's occurs through the marriage of Oliver Tuite to Julia Newman in Dunderry, Meath 1879.

There is also another Tuite - Eliza who marries a John Newman in Dunderry, Meath in 1880.

I'm suspecting that Julia & John could be siblings or cousins.

I'm connected to all of the Tuite's mentioned & would like to know if anyone has a little bit of information that could help clarify how they connect together.

Hi Oneday

Welcome to IrelandXO.

Looking at the online marriage records, both John Newman & Julia Newman' s father is listed as Thomas Newman of Tullaghanstown so would be safe enough to assume they were siblings.

Eliza Tuite a daughter of Edward Tuite and Oliver Tuite a son of Oliver Tuite.

Difficult to follow your notes as you have not included year of birth.

Hello, I am a direct descendant of Oliver Tuite and Catherine Quigley through their son Patrick who emigrated to the United States around 1868. Patrick married Honora McMahon. I would love to share more with you about them. I have been researching my family for about 10 years. Ancestry.com has Oliver's parents as Edward (1784-1872) and Catherine Boland (1783-1850). Documentation has been hard to come by though. Can anyone confirm Oliver's parents?

Hello, I descend from Edward Tuite. I was just in Athboy, Meath, Ireland. I was able to pay my respects at his gravesite. I would love to work with others on the Tuite Line. I believe that Oliver Tuite and my Rose Tuite were siblings.
