Geary Moore in Aghada

CorkAghada (Cork)

My great-great grandparents, Redmond Geary and Mary Moore, were married in Aghada (Catholic) in 1811. I have been going through the new Catholic Church records on the NLI site and found two baptisms: one in 1817 (Patrick) and another (David) in 1819. At that time they lived in Glanagow. However, neither are my great grandfather, James Geary.

From Canadian census and marriage records, I have narrowed down James' birth to 1820-1830. However, I have now gone through the Aghada church records through 1831 and found no other children of Redmond and Mary. I suspect they may have moved.

What other Catholic churches are close to Glanagow? Thanks for your help!

Kathleen:

The two RC parishes which border Aghada parish are Cloyne and Midleton. I looked on Roots Ireland and could not find the record. I searched from 1815-1835 in all of the parishes in the Diocese of Cloyne which includes Midleton and Cloyne RC parishes.

Roger,

Thank you SO much for checking the records of the nearby parishes. Greatly appreciated! Now, I just need to figure out where they went ;-)
