1. [Irl-Aran-Islands] Costelloes [1]
I too am looking for info on the Island of Inisheer. I am making a trip there in the spring and need to know about the cemeteries and possible churches on the island. (I read that you need permission from the parish to look at their records. Thanks to several on here I have a list of past Costelloes, I was hoping to find some "living" relatives as well. I have tried looking in the phone directories, with no luck. Any ideas you have would be greatly appreciated. By the way is Inisheer considered a part
2. Re: [Irl-Aran-Islands] Ganley [1]
Dear Pat, I do not have your original inquiry about Thomas Ganley. But in the book, Stones Of Aran, by Tim Robinson, there is a great deal about Thomas' involvement with the assault on the bailiff. PP. 176-177 It happened in 1881 and Bryan Kilmartin went to jail for life in 1882 for the crime. He was released in 1884 by the British government when Thomas Ganley confessed on his deathbed that he had done it. I have about 450-500 pages from the Irish Historical Museum about the trial, imprisonment, relea
3. Re: [Irl-Aran-Islands] Ganley [1]
Barbara, Thank you so much for the email. It fills in many holes for me. My great great grandfather buried Thomas Ganely in our family plot in Holy Cross Cem. in Malden, MA. I never knew the history of Thomas Ganely. All I knew that he was a friend of the family who my grandfather knew. This has really given me some meaning as I visit the graves. Thank you so much for your help. You can be sure of my genuine apprecation. Best, Pat McDonough
4. [Irl-Aran-Islands] Re: Boston College research [1]
Hi Cathy, I'm just now trying to catch up with genealogy lists. I'm still in the hunt for my Mullin/Dirrane/McDonough/Conneely crowd. Pecking away and making very slow progress. YOu know how that is. I saw your query about Boston College and I wasn't sure if anyone had answered your question. I've done research at BC maybe 6 or 7 times. I used it primarily for Griffiths Evaluation. I know that I could have gotten this at NEHGS or BPL, but at the time Boston College was more convenient. I could drive and
5. [Irl-Aran-Islands] Costelloe etc. [1]
Dear all I have lost all my old e-mails (temporarily,I hope) so I have no details to work from. I have some info.on Costelloe on Inisheer,but I need whoever asked for it to send the original info. again. Also,anyone else who is waiting to hear from me,please can you contact me again with brief details? Let this be a warning to you all - Back up your Personal Filing Cabinet !! I am told my info.is not lost,it's somewhere on my hard -drive,but that's not a lot of help at the moment. I have spent hours
6. [Irl-Aran-Islands] Ellis Island records [1]
While browsing the Ellis Island records, I found more people from Aran. I also did not know until recently that for later records you can also go to the next or previous page of the ship manifest and find the name of the person's nearest relative from Aran. Hope these help someone. Rosemary Bridget Costello, July 17, 1920 age 20 going to uncle John Costello, Boston MA father Peter Costello, Innishmain, Arran Delia Costello, October 25, 1905, age 30 Aran the next 3 came together on August 18, 1920 :
7. Re: [Irl-Aran-Islands] Re: Cemeteries [1]
I found out that one of our relatives from Inisheer is buried at Holy Cross Cemetery in Malden. I wrote to them this summer but did not receive a reply. Do you know who to contact there for cemetery records?

8. Re: [Irl-Aran-Islands] Re:Costelloes [1]
On my copy of the 1821 census, Mary Costelloe living with Pat Conneely # 57 is age 15. Those of us with Griffins (John, Ray and myself) have laid claim to Kate Costelloe, daughter of Michael and Pegy # 59. John Griffin's death certificate in Lowell, MA names his parents as Bryan Griffin, family # 58 in the 1821 and Catherine Costello, most likely the girl next door. They are the correct ages to be having the children we know of - John Griffin, Martin Griffin, Monica Griffin, and possibly Patrick Griffin,
9. [Irl-Aran-Islands] Re:Costelloes [1]
Dear Val, I had a rummage through the Costelloes on Inisheer,and the good news is,there aren't that many of them!! In the 1821 census ,there are only 3 households and a couple of singles. Your family has to be: #60 Tom Costelloe 34 tailor Mary Costelloe 25 wife Michael son age 1 Next door #59 Michael Costelloe 63 tailor Pegy 61 wife John 28 son tailor Kate 18 daughter flaxspinner I think we have to read that as one family,parents,2 sons ,1 daughter and a grandson. The cens

Hi- Thank you so much for your email. I do have a Julia Lydon McDonough on my side, but she is not a McDonough but a Lydon. I think that she may have come over later before the first world war. Best, Patrick
11. Re: [Irl-Aran-Islands] Re: Boston College research [1]
Eileen, sorry to "butt" in on your note to Cathy but you sound like you know a bit about Boston College. I was wondering if you knew whether or not the college keeps admission records? My grandfather attended Boston College (circa 1917-1921) and I would love to see what information was provided for genealogical purposes. Thanks in advance for any information you can provide. karen ----- Original Message ----- From: To: Sent: Tuesday, November 13,
12. Re: [Irl-Aran-Islands] Cemeteries [1]
Dear Ed. I spent several hours looking through the indexes yesterday,but had no luck. I looked for a wedding for Nora and Michael,from 1864- 1876,and a wedding for Tom/Mary from 1885-1895. I may have missed something,but it's more likely they weren't registered,or Nora went by a different name,or Tom and Mary married in the US. It might be worth going through the indexes looking for Andrew?Forde,but there are too many Michael Flaherty/Fahertys . Sorry to bear bad news. Cathy
13. Re: [Irl-Aran-Islands] Re: Cemeteries [1]
Rosemary, I checked my records, and it was 1994 that I was in contact with Holy Cross Cemetery in Malden. At that time I got a very detailed response to my query and stamped self addressed envelope. The letterhead is as follows: Archdiocesan Cemeteries, Malden Area 175 Broadway Malden MA 02148 Ph: 322-6301 I do know that some of the cemeteries now charge for this info. Don't know if that's the case here. Good luck, Eileen
14. [Irl-Aran-Islands] Inisheer graveyard book [1]
For anyone researching on Inisheer, I also recommend the graveyard book! I am hoping my Irish dictionary arrives soon so I can understand more of the book! Cathy - Have you figured out what page 131 means? Are these people who don't have a stone? And page 132 - are these people who died in 1901? If it has to do with the census, my people aren't listed. I have been able to connect more of my Conneely graves: Grave 33 - Coleman Conneely and his wife Margaret O'Donnell, Coleman's son Patrick and his wife
15. [Irl-Aran-Islands] Larry Conneely [1]
Rootsweb server down -copy of e-mail sent 18/11/01 Dear Pat Thanks for the excuse,but I can't blame the computer for not coming up with any thing else on Larry Conneely. I've been through the graveyard book,but nothing of any relevance.There is a Larry C. born in 1884,died 1972,but that's all. Rosemary's trawl through the Ellis island records for Conneely threw up a couple of names in California -siblings Thomas,Kate and Simon ,born c1885+ Don't know if it's relevant,but not too many islander

Boston Bridget O'Donnell age 25 June 19, 1910 wrong manifest comes up, can't get information Wonder if the following 3 are siblings : Mary O'Donnell age 18 April 24, 1921 going to aunt Kate Dillon , 159 Dorchester St. Boston mother Mary O'Donnell, Kilronan Coleman O'Donnell age 25 June 4, 1922 going to sister Mary O'Donnell, 890 -- St., So
17. [Irl-Aran-Islands] Re: Cemeteries [1]
Hi Cathy, Saw your note about cemeteries and figured I'd jump in too. My Irish Boston family is pretty well spread over the area. Some of the earliest burials were at St. Mary in Dorchester. A disappointing trip there left me with a list of names, and not one of them had a stone. We have lots of family buried Calvary; Mt.Hope; St.Joseph; Mt.Benedict; and Holyhood. These are all in Boston. Then we have Calvary in Waltham; Calvary in Woburn; and Holy Cross in Malden. There are a number of strays in cemeterie

Cathy, Thank you so much for the information on Thomas Ganely. He is buried in my family plot in Holy Cross Cem. in Malden, MA. My great, great grandfather buried him. In the 1920's, Father Ganely send gold over for burying Thomas Ganely. Yes. I was wondering if you could please send the information on the O'Flaherty's and Ganely to me. Annie O'Flaherty who came over in the 1950's was my 3rd cousin. I am trying to piece together how we are related to the O'Flaherty's. Also, Kate McDonough's (N

20. [Irl-Aran-Islands] Re: Information on Connelly and Daley [1]
My name is Patrick McDonough and I live in Boston. I come from a long line of descendants from the Aran. I was over in June of '99 and had a wonderful time. I have been researching my family roots on my mothers side and have found that: Peter Connelly married Hanora or Hannah Daly(father Lawrence Daly and mother Catherine) in 1834 on the small island Isinshere. ( I think. It is tough to read the bible). They had a farm. What is the English name for Honora or Hannah? She came to the U.S. in the

Rosemary, I have the information that you need for Holy Cross Cemetery in Malden, Mass. Their phone number is: 1-888-919-7926. Their fax number is: l-781-322-3809 I have the name of Jodi Fuller as a contact. She was helpful. It took me over 6 months to get a reply for my request. Good luck (unfortunately you'll need it!) They march to their own drummer. I was told over the phone that if you personally went to the office you could get the copies immediately handed to you for a cost. When I appeared at
22. Re: [Irl-Aran-Islands] Re: Information on Connelly and Daley [1]
Dear Cathy, Thank you so much for your help. I believe that you have filled in some of the questions that I had. Lawrence Connelly was on Aran in 1835 to Peter and Hanora(Daley) Connelly. He also had brothers Peter, John, Michael and a sister??. Lawrence came over first around 1852-6 and brought the rest over. He lived with the Foleys in South Boston. There was a John and Anges Foley. I believe that he was the oldest. I believe that John and Michael died in the civil war. We have their records.

Hi Patrick: I forwarded your message to a woman I know who is researching Feeneys' Foleys and McDonoughs. I believe she may be able to help you. Meanwhile, do you have any McKays on either side? I am researching my McKay/McDonough lines and right now I have a Bridget(Delia) McDonough, b. 1870 Ireland, d. 1923 Portland, ME whose parents were John and Mary McDonough. Census records show they came here from Ireland approx. 1880. Delia had one sister at least that I know of and her name was Julia. Delia

Dear Val Send at once for the Inisheer graveyard book! It has so much information. I think the lists at the back of the book are the present -day caretakers of the graves ,and presumably descendants.Or that's how I translated it,but I might have got the wrong end of the stick,'cos Gaelic is a really difficult language to decipher from a pocket dictionary!! Has anyone else got the book yet and can comment? Unfortunately,my folks came from Iarairne/Eararna on Inishmore and I haven't had ONE single co
