John Stack and Bridget Relighan: Listowel

KerryListowel (Kerry)

Seeking information on John Stack (circa 1812-1888) married to Bridget Relighan (b circa 1822). 

They were likely married around 1844 or 1845.

They had two children born in Ireland.

Richard Stack b 1846

Roderick Stack b 1849

 

The Canadian 1851 Census indicates they were living in Fitzroy Harbour in 1852 and that they were from Listowel.

Hi, 

I can see from Griffith's valuation that there were plenty of Stacks (some called John) recorded around Listowel during that time period -- http://www.askaboutireland.ie/griffith-valuation/index.xml?action=nameS…;

Griffiths also lists family members so by cross referencing with your own data you may be able to expand your family tree. 

It also might be worth getting in touch with Listowel Historical Society - https://www.listowel.ie/listing/listowel-district-historical-society/. They will have local experts who may be able to help in your quest.

Good luck!

David
