Walsh and Minihane surnames of southwest County Cork

CorkAbbeystrowry (Cork)

I have been reseaching my family history from the Skibbereen and Baltimore area in southwest County Cork.  I am focused on about 25 surnames - main surnames from this area are:  Walsh, Minihane, Connolly, McCarthy, Collins, Leonard, O'Brien, Hegarty, and Sheehan.

 

Would like to make contact with others doing research in the Skibbereeen and Baltimore area - particularly on these surnames.

Remember to post as much information as you can with regard to the people you are researching. The more information you post, the more likely it is that one of our volunteers will be able to advise or assist you.

Also include information concerning which sources you may have already used so others may further your search.

Please make sure you link anyone else in your family who is interested in their Irish heritage to our site - and indeed anyone else you know of Irish heritage.

Kind regards,

I am interested in the Hegarty and Lannin families in Abbeystrowry. On a recent trip to Dublin I was able to extract some C of I records for these families dating back to 1780. Would welcome contact from anyone else with these interests.
