Ballinrobe -- Sheridan

Hi

 

The oldest records you can look up online to see where your Sheridan/Partlands may have come from in Ballinrobe is The Tithe Applotments (1823-1837)

Don't see any Partland names in Mayo, nearest families would be Roscommon

 

Next you could browse through the Griffiths Valuations dated 1850's

Looks like this might be the village, if you look at this link you will see Partlands and Sheridans living here- The Sheridan family names look a lot like yours (esp the last Sheridans listed)

Sheridans in Irish Graveyards.ie - nearby Cemeteries, could be Tourmakeady, Ballintubber, Partry, Aughagower, and Robeen.  http://www.irishgraveyards.ie/search.php?lastname=Sheridan&firstname=&a…

 

We have set up a MAYO GENEALOGY GROUP recently on Facebook, if you do have a page there you could ask to join and post queries, we have some members from all of Mayo there, just ask to join....
