Hi Helen

I am familiar with Ryans of Cross as they still lived in that townsland when I was a child. The farm was sold in the 60's when the last brother William passed away unmarried. A sister married a man by the name of Nash in a nearby village and her decendants still live there. The family buriel ground is in Oola Co. limerick I hope this information is of use to you.

Gillian and Helen, well there are certainly a lot of Ryans in the Oola cemetery, which also includes my Reals.  I once called the Oola cemetery the "Ryan Cemetery."

One think we found out this past June in visiting Oola and the cemetery along with a Pallas Ryan was that the inter-relationship between Limerick Ryans and most of the other surnames of the area are almost impossible to sort out unless you have a great deal of patience and go into your search with the proper Townlands and full names.

Not familiar with the Ryans of Cross, but we did spend time withe Ryans (minor) or Oola.

Good Luck!

Hi  my ancestors are from Cross. My  GG Edmund/Edward English rented a house just down the road in Knockballyfookeen, although he is from Cross originally and married my GGgrandmother Judith Ryan who I'm guessing/hoping  may have been a relative to your Ryan's. I'm not sure who her parents were I know there is a John and William Ryan who both renting property in the area At the time of Griffiths valuation . Edmunds  brother Michael owned the Cross mills which is a stone throw from the cottage.

Both had come over to England during the famine in the late 1840's
