I have a Catherine Ryan married to a Patrick Quaid/ Quain-She was born in 1795- Bruff Limerick and died in 1849 and is buried in the Glenogra Limrick Cemetery. The parents shown were William and Sara (Moylan ) Ryan

Ryan is like smith in Ireland so many around- but you might want to try Limerick ?

Hi Jay,

Thank you for your message.The Ryans of Watertown are indeed relatives of mine.I'll look into the Honora connection in more detail.

For some reason your jilajay2007 ID stands out to me.

I've got trees up on Ancestry and Myheritage and have just started using DNA analysis (FTDNA and Gedmatch) , not sure if it was a match on one of these.

You can email me at trtomryan1@gmail.com if you wish to discuss further.

Kind regards,

Tom Ryan

Tom,   Though the family I'm researching lived mostly in Coumnageeha (West of /  1 townland removed from Upperchurch village), there is a possible connection to a John Ryan who resided in Kilcommon at the time of his Aug, 1847 Upperchurch marriage to Catherine "Kitty" Bourke.  I initially thought that couple might be my GG-grandparents, as I had found an 1867 immigrant ship passenger manifest (transcript) for them and a number of children including a Denis Ryan, who I thought might be my great-grandfather. 

 Subsequently, as I could never find a baptismal record for a Denis Ryan born to that couple (though I found  the baptisms of 9 of their children), and as I learned other facts, I surmised that they instead were possibly other kin with whom Denis had been emigrating. 

Anyway, I have the marriage transcript & birth cert's of the John Ryan / Catherine Burke family, the immigrant ship transcription, and 1870 & 1880 US Census records for them,   if these are of any use.  Only one Upperchurch baptismal record includes an address, and that one (1865) is "Balliboy" ... a bit over a mile W of Upperchurch. Their whereabouts between 1847 & 1865 are unknown.

Again, I'm not sure if there's a direct relationship between the aforementioned Ryan/Bourke family and the John Ryan/ Mary Ryan couple who I now think are my gg grandparents, though I suspect there might be one.
