Ryans of Pallasgreen

LimerickGrean (Limerick)

My Ryans from Pallasgreen lived at Kilduff castle, Brackyle, Ballyluddy,  Garrannebeg, Clashbane, and other nearby townlands. A stone in the Old Pallas graveyard may be of my Ryans:

Erected by Jeremiah Ryan, Ballyluddy

In memory of his father Matthew Ryan

Son of Darby Ryan & Mary Kelly

Born 5th April 1806

Died 21 Jan 1896

Of his mother

Brisgid Raleigh

Daughter of Thomas Raleigh & Julia O'Shea

Born Feb 1811

Died 27 Mar 1884

Other Ryans & family are listed....does anyone know descendants of this family? The stone has insciptions on all sides, with the latest death being Michael Ryan, died 14 June 1962.

Any help appreciated!

Nancy,

I should not be surprised that our paths have crossed once again. I am still trying to research Mathew Ryan, died in 1855 per my family notes. His son, Hugh, emigrated to Evansville, IN (in 1848) if I recall. I just joined this site. I will come back and add additional information.
