Thank you Roger, Eileen, and Patricia. It is so nice to have response and some more insight.
Roger, I'll fill that form out and get that started.
As for the birth/baptism year of my great, great, great grand father, James, his birth year is sometime between 1799-1805. I share that due to his Baptism is Jan 20th,1805, and in records and census here in the States he varies in year entry between 1799-1805. Hence, he was baptized in 1805, not 1905. He is the one who left Ireland. Yes, he is my 3rd gen great grand father, which my name is Angeline. His daughter (my gr. gr. Grandma) is named Angeline to whom I'm named after.) In regards to the village that James was from and within proximity of the baptism record, it is called Gortshanafa, and is on the map in Ireland - close to where he would have been baptized. When I searched for the other spelling "Gortshavavoge" no such place came up on the map. Unless the way I spell it and how it shows up on the Google map is the English form, and your form is Irish language. Could that be? If it is then I'd be sure the 1911 Fitzgeralds you found may be my blood relations. To note, why there is a big jump in years from my gr. gr. grandma Angeline who was born in New York in 1843, is because her son, my great grandpa Clarkson ended up having 25 kids between three marriages (3 of his kids died at birth, so 22 lived on). So, my grandpa Glenroie was his 2nd to last child born. Clarkson was 65 when my grandpa was born. Hence, the gap in years and making my gr. gr. grandma so far removed in years from me. But to recap, it is my gr. gr. gr. grandpa James Fitzgerald from Kerry Co. who left Ireland.
Eileen, thank you for that link. This is the document that I have already had the Parish certify and forward to me that I now have in possession. Thank you for contributing to the conversation. I greatly appreciate any insight.
Patricia, the link you placed doesn't work. When I tried to manually put it in my Mac computer warned it was not safe to visit. Not sure why, but that link didn't work for that reason. However, the saerch for "Tithe Applotments in 1827 show a James REIDY in Killeentierna" may be a help. I'll look into that lead. Thank you.
