Yes, Jan, it is confusing - I don't know what to say about
it. Maybe you ought to try it on the Cork County Library -
Local Studies Section.

> Padraig, thank you for that very interesting bit of
information about Shannaballindangan.
I'd like to start a thread which will answer several questions that most of
us who are rather new might have. Here is the question -- "How long did your
IRISH great-grandparents live to be?".
Mine only lived into their late 60's, which in my opinion is way too short,
and I would like to know why. How long did yours live to be, and why? What
diseases/illinesses did they have? Please give full names, birth/death dates, last
place lived, age at onset of disease, cause of death/age at death, and where

I need some help to find out where I can locate some death certificates in Cork.
I have the exact death dates of the previous partners from the marriage certificate of both widow and widower who were married in
Victoria , Australia.in 1858.
Is it possible to buy a copy of death certificates from the General Register Office ? Would it be in Cork or Dublin?
The years concerned are 1853 and 1856.
Thank you in the hope I can get some answers as my Irish research file is a little empty.

Hi Jenny,
Civil registration of Births, Marriages and Deaths did not
commence in Ireland until 1864. The National Library in
Dublin has various Burial records for dates before that
but I don't see reference there to any Catholic Parish in
County Cork.

Hello,
I am new to the list.
I am researching CORBETT, REARDON and (don't laugh) McCARTHY.
I know that Kanturk is a place where my Corbetts came from. My husband and I are going to be in Ireland for the week up to St Patricks day, so I am attempting to locate any distant cousins that might be there.
I don't have much info on the Irish origins of my McCarthy/McCarty Line in Ireland. Peter (aka) Charles McCarthy/McCarty was married to Catharine Reardon. She was the daughter of Denis and Margaret Reardon o
I am seeking information on Mary WHELTON b. abt. 1893 m. Michael BROWN of Ballyporeen/Doon, Araglin area. They lived in Boston, Massachusetts until their deaths in the 1970s and 1980s. Mary and Michael had no children.
It is not a very common name, so I am hoping to locate her parents. All but one of the births under the name WHELTON occurred in County CORK. The other one birth was in County KERRY.
These folks were my grandmother's brother and sister in law.
TIA

My gggrandfather, William Myers died 1870, Scart, Kildorrery, Co. Cork, age 86, of 'old age'.
My ggrandmother, Katherine Sullivan Myers, died 1891, Rockmills, Ballyvoddy, Kildorrery, Co. Cork, age 80, of 'chronic bronchitis' and 'asthma'.
My grandfather, Patrick Myers, born 1859, Scart, Kildorrery, Co. Cork, died 1911 of 'pulmonary tuberculosis' in Brooklyn, NY. He left Ireland c1885.
My grandmother, Hanorah Mahoney Myers, 1860, Glanworth, Co. Cork, died 1906 of 'pulmonary tuberculosis' in Brooklyn, NY.
G'day,
I am new to the list and have a question regarding searching at the Local
County Registrar Offices v. the GRO in Dublin. I have below copied an
extract from Jane Lyon's site re the establishment of civil
registration...
In 1864, civil registration of births, marriages and deaths became
compulsory and at that time there were 163 Poor Law Unions(PLU's) in
Ireland. The Poor Law Union was designated the Superintendant Registrar's
District (SRD) and within each of these Districts the 'Dispensary
Distri
Try the LDS's Civil Birth Index for the time mentioned -
the Film#0101064 covers 1891-1893. Later two-year periods
are consecutive to the above number. It would be helpful
and more fruitful to know the county in which she was born,
but as the name is not a common one, hopefully you'll find
her record.
If you do find her record, then note the year, the Volume
and Page numbers and the Registration District. Send this
info. to the GRO, Dublin
(see www.groireland.ie for instructions and costs).

Sorry to bring the bad news, but the GRO at Dublin
(www.groireland.ie)
or their regional office at Cork have records for Births,
Deaths, and marriages only from January 1864, with the
exception of Protestant marriages which are available from
1845 (only from Dublin)

Does anyone happen to have a photocopy of the page that would have
Baurnahulla (I understand synonymous with Butlersgift) in the 1911 census? I
am trying to learn who the Kate Donoghue was who was present at Mary
Kingston's death. Mary was living in Glandart, Dromdaleague. I thought if I
could find Kate in the census, I could see how old she was and then try to
find her marriage record as I would like to know her maiden name.
Thank you,

Hi Tricia,
Civil Registration did not begin in Ireland until 1864.
For anything before that you would be depending on
Church records. However you could check on the 1865
option by contacting the General Register Office in
Dublin. For details on how to do that go to

From The Cork Examiner, 1 July 1878 -
THE WEATHER.--On Saturday evening the lower part of the town of
Mallow was for a considerable time flooded, caused by an extremely
heavy fall of rain, which forced its way into some of the houses in the
vicinity. On Saturday evening a portion of the Killarney Railway at
Gortmore, near Mallow, was for several hours blocked up and all
traffic impeded, owing to a breach made on the line by the recent
rains. The passenger train which was due to

in west Co. Cork.
In the U.S., ca. 1884, Mary Ellen HURLEY married John Dominic DONEGAN.
Mary was b. Jul 1858 (per 1900 DC census) and immigrated at age 17 in
1875 (family history plus census confirmation). John was b. Feb. 1858
in DC and his parents came from Drinagh; he apprenticed as a

Hi Jacqi,
The poem you quote is in Old Irish so the pronunciation may
seem a little strange.
Dubhach sin is pronounced DO-OCK SHIN, and a dhu na riogh

The Queens name Gormfhlaith is pronounced GORM (to rhyme
with WORM) and LA with a short A.
I hope this helps.
