Michael O’Donohoe Collection Castleisland
The Michael O Donohoe Memorial Heritage Project was launched in Castleisland, Co Kerry in October 2014 by a local committee dedicated to safeguarding the research of the late Michael O’Donohoe, former principal of Castleisland Boys’ National School. Michael O’Donohoe’s research, conducted over a period of about 30 years, relates to Castleisland and district history and heritage. Michael O’Donohoe, who was an accomplished sportsman, took up teaching in the Boys’ National School, Castleisland in the 1950s and eventually became headmaster there before his retirement in 1991 at age 55. Local history research occupied his remaining years until his death at the age of 71 in 2008.
The papers of the late Michael O’Donohoe are now catalogued and digitised

Thanks for posting! I recognize a few names from my extended family tree! My great grandfather's sister, Honora Griffin (1835-1904) married James O'Driscoll, the builder and postmaster in Glin in 1866. The Miss O'Driscoll and Dora Clarke in the photo are her descendants. I don't know that much about my extended Griffin family but I did get a chance to visit O'Driscoll's B&B last summer and learn just a bit about the O'Driscoll’s.

-------------------------------------------
HISTORY 1830 Samuel Lewis gives an extensive description of: every Irish county, town and civil parish, churches (of all denominations) including the corresponding Catholic parish name (if different),
local industries, resources, and transport at that time, the principal estates, landowners, and gentry residing in the area, local history, geography, anecdotes, superstitions, and lifestyle of the people.
As it was published around the same time as the First Ordnance Survey of Ireland (aka "the 6 inch maps") it is of particular value to those with place name clues that don't seem to match up to modern-day maps:
The spellings of place names in these volumes are of that time and differ from spellings that are found in later documentation.
Where an Irish place name was spelled in various ways, a reference has been given from one to the other.
The "parish" to which Lewis refers is the civil parish (that matches the Church of Ireland parish).
As this was published in the 1830s (when Catholic Emancipation was rolling out) Lewis also indicates whether the Catholic parish was "co-extensive" (same name, same boundaries) or known by another name (and how many divisions or unions applied).
He differentiates local places of worship by "chapel" (Roman Catholic) and "church" (Protestant). Many rural RC chapels at that time were no more than thatched houses (donated by the local landlord).
The names of local courthouses, gaols and police stations of that time are also noted.

During the summer of 2004 Michael Finucane was on holiday in Killarney with his family so I travelled there to meet him. Michael was born in Newtownsandes, later known as Moyvane, in May 1903. He was taught in National School by John B. Keane’s father and Bryan McMahon’s father – a literary education indeed. News of the Rising in Dublin on Easter Monday 1916 took some time to trickle through to Newtownsandes. Not many people locally were too interested in Republican matters, and felt that the Rising was a somewhat similar event to that organised by Jim Larkin in 1913. Later in life Michael worked in the Civil Service with a man named Paddy Boland who had been imprisoned in Germany during the Great War. He recalled an occasion when Roger Casement visited the prison camp in an attempt to get the Irish inmates interested in a potential Rising at home and he said that not one prisoner was prepared to become involved with him, as most people were loyalist, on Home Rule terms, and had been fighting with the British during the war. After the Rising the mood of the people in Ireland swung towards the Volunteers and Michael’s elder brother, Paddy began ‘training’ in a local field with his friends in an atmosphere more reminiscent of a football match. During June 1921, there was an air of quiet around the countryside but Michael recalls that during that month, as he was retuning from holidays in Clare by boat to Tarbert, he was met in the village by a British soldier who demanded that his suitcase be opened, whereupon he searched carefully among the contents with his bayonet before allowing Michael to proceed. He recalled that directly before the Black and Tans left Ireland he was walking through Listowel with IRA man Con Brosnan when they spotted twelve Tans standing outside the Barracks in the town. He remembers Con crossing the road and introducing himself. The men were stupefied, saying that they had been hunting for him for the previous two years without success. During his years in the Civil Service, Michael worked with many people who had been involved with the fight for freedom, and knew David Neligan, who played a prominent part in the events of the Civil War. My day in Killarney with Michael Finucane was very well spent, and I was very glad to have had an opportunity to listen to his fine reminiscences and recollections - from the Irish Life and Lore website.

The Ó Longáin Family
From the 18th century to the late 19th century the surname ‘Ó Longáin’ was synonymous with ‘scribes.’ Working as a scribe meant copying stories, poetry, histories and religious texts from manuscripts and printed works for patrons. Working as a scribe also involved translating texts from Irish to English. Frequently their patrons were from Cork merchant families, were Cork scholars themselves such as John Windele or from Cork clergy such as Bishop John Murphy. Working as a scribe had previously been a position of privilege but as the Gaelic order disintegrated following the Flight of the Earls in 1607, scribes found their living situation growing perilous and frequently lived in poverty. Micheál mac Peattair, his son Micheál Óg and his grandson Peadar were based in Carrignavar, Cork. Grandsons Pól and Seosamh were primarily based in Dublin.

Tragedy on the Shannon
Posted 20 Mar 2014 by annie bremer
Six relatives of Nora's: Patrick Lyndon and his sister Mary along with Michael Scanlon and his three sisters, Mary, Katie and Bridget Scanlon, were among 17 people drowned on 15 August 1893 in a boating accident on the Shannon near Tarbert.
Fifteen young people from the area had hired two boats to take them the three miles from Tarbert to Co. Clare on an excursion. It was the Feast of the Assumption, traditionally a day of celebration at the end of the year's harvest. One of the boatmen did not turn up on the morning of the 15th, so all the passengers crowded onto the other boat with the second boatman and his son. On the way across, the boat began to take in water through some loose laths, but the passengers bailed it out with their boots and they made it across.
They weren't so lucky on the way back that evening. There was a strong tide and when the boat was within a few hundred yards of the shore, it was seen to drift downriver. Cries and shouting were heard on shore, but they were taken to be cries of excitement rather than cries for help, and the alarm wasn't raised until the next day. It was too late - there were no survivors. The tragedy was a devastating blow for the Tarbert area, and for many years afterwards, people refused to go boating on the Shannon on 15 August. A plaque in memory of the victims was erected on the coast road near Tarbert about 1993.

SEARCHING for Family: November 2, 2018 at 4:23 pm
Margaret Doyle Phone: 0872891691
I am researching my Family History.
I am particularly interested in James Murphy who married Ellen Laide in Newtownsandes some time between 1908 and 1912.
I have 2 different Civil Records for their Marriage.
The first states that on 6th November 1908
James Murphy, bachelor, prison warder of Maryborough, Queen’s County married
Ellen Laide, spinster, nurse of Newtownsandes, Kerry. Her father was Richard Laide.
The marriage was solemnised by Thomas K. Lyne C.C. in the Roman Catholic Church of Newtownsandes.
The second certificate gives the date of their marriage as 18th October 1912.
All of the other information is identical on both records.
The actual date of marriage is the only fact that differs.
James Murphy was recorded as single in the census of 1911.
Another intriguing fact is that on 11th March 1914, James Murphy was tried for Forgery of a Marriage Certificate at the Tralee Assizes! He was acquitted.
I feel that your church record is likely to be accurate.
Any information about the Richard Laide & Anne McCarthy family would be appreciated. Thank you
LYONS near Listowel.

Daniel Brandon was born in 1844 in Tarmon, Kerry, Ireland. He married Johanna McCarthy on February 12, 1865, in Listowel, Kerry, Ireland. They had one child during their marriage. He died in September 1903 at the age of 59.
John O’Sullivan was a native of South Kerry – where, we are not sure. He became the favourite military organiser of Charles Edward Stuart (Bonnie Prince Charlie) during the Prince’s invasion of Scotland in 1745, which is the subject of the contemporary document presented below.
Cahermoyle House has recently being put on the market by Savills Dublin for a price guide of €900,000.The 19th century house and 43 acres of land is attracting a lot of interest as it can be used for many different things. It was the original home of William Smith O’Brien, who was MP for Limerick from 1835 to 1848. The Oblate Brothers took it over in 1919 and it operated as a working farm as well as a place of study for students. They moved out in 1988 and 200 acres of the land was sold and the house was turned into a nursing home. It was a successful venture and provided work for locals until it closed in 2016.
My great great grandfather, James Stack, born in 1816, had a drapery business where McKenna's shop now stands, on the corner of Market Street and William Street. James died in October of 1873, and his son, my great grandfather Edward J. Stack, bought the shop known as The Arcade on this day, June 15 1898, having rented the premises for some years before buying it.
The premises was originally a Ladies and Gentlemen's drapery and shoe shop and also had a household linens and lace department. The shop had a staff of about 17 people including Stack family members.
E.J.Stack died in 1910 leaving his widow Bridget and 9 children. My grandfather, Joseph Stack ran the business with his mother. Bridget Stack died in 1938, and Joseph Stack died in 1946.
My uncle Niall Stack and my father Stuart Stack took over the running of the business and started to sell furniture. Niall started a furniture manufacturing business and my father ran the shop until his sudden death in 1971 atthe age of 41. My mother Mary with the help of the late John Horgan from Finuge continued to run the business.
I left St Michael's College in 1972 to start working full time in the shop. Myself, my wife, Joan and my mother, Mary still run the furniture shop.

Researching STACK, HANRAHAN, AND LILLIS families. Garrett Stack, his wife Johanna Hanrahan, and 11 children sailed on the Christopher Columbus in 1849. They sailed from Liverpool to New York. Garrett's father was Robert Stack. Johanna's father was Patrick Hanrahan. Passenger list shows Garrett50, Johanna46, Robert22, Joan19, Patrick17(My ggrandfather), John15, Michael13, Johanna11, Garrett9, Mary7, Ellen5, Cathe4, Judy2. One daughter remained in Ireland. Patrick Stack(my ggrandfather) was born in Tullihinell, Barrylongford parish, County Kerry on 5/11/1828. The 1851 census shows the family in Canada, in Wellington County, Garafraxa Township. This is near Fergus and Guelph, about 75 kM west of oronto. It shows Garrit53, Johana46, Michael18, Garrit14, Mary12, Elinor10, Cathrine8, Julia6. Patrick and his family settled in East St. Louis during the Civil War. Would appreciate hearing about any of these families.

First goal: Collect information from the descendants of Thomas Finucane and Mary Shine (County Cork).
Our branch of the Finucanes are from Inchintothan near Newmarket in Cork. We came to the US in 1895 and settled near Dover, New Hampshire. An old picture shows Thomas J. Finucane and his brothers and sisters at a popular picnic spot outside of Dover at the end of the trolley line. One of the brothers was named Cornelius. From the birth certificates, James Shine and Catherine Lane Shine's daughter, Mary Ann was born October 22 in 1875. Thomas and Mary Sheehe Finucane's son, Thomas J. Finucane, was born in New Market in Cork, on January 30th, 1877. They are said to be residents of Garrason or Yarrason in the Boherboy District of Cork. James Shine and Thomas Finucane the elder list "farmer" as occupation. From other records, Thomas and Mary were married in Providence Rhode Island on June 2, 1908. As Bob B. heard the story, the tipsy Gaelic-speaking priest was asked what, if anything, Finucane translated into. He said, "Yes, blonde king's slave." Then looking pie-eyed at his audience reaction, he said, "No. I mean, king's page. Yes. That's it. King's page." Bob believes that it's actually Gaelic for middle level civil servant. But that could be a perspective thing.
Regarding the above photo, James Finbar provided this legend on 12/18/1981, "Mary Sheehy Finucane (1850-1921) of Inchintothan near Newmarket now called Glonthonfalon, County Cork With eight of her nine children, all immigrants from Ireland around 1892. Photo probably made in Dover, NH around 1908. Left to right, back row. Bessie Finucane, Margaret Finucane, Mary Finucane, Mary Sheehy Finucane (Mrs. Thomas Finucane), Nora Finucane, and Julia Finucane. Left to right, front row, Thomas J. Finucane, Catherine Finucane, and Michael Finucane. Not shown is Cornelius Finucane, a third son, who died in 1899. Afterwards, Thomas J. Finucane (1875-1937) married Mary Shine (1875-1946) in St. Josephs' Church, Providence, R.I. in 1908." Robert Barry in 2000 adds, "All these persons are buried in St Mary's Cemetary, Dover, NH."
Linda Finucane (lfinucane@CI.NEWTON.MA.US) wrote us 8/1/00, and tells an interesting account of Garrison in Cork where "the Finucane's all lived there together. There were 5 houses, fairly close together. They would start with music in one house one night then move to the next house the next night and so forth. They thought nothing of walking 10 miles to play music and dance." If that got your interest, here's more. My cousin Tom notes that my Dad, "Uncle Jim is definitely right and we are all related to Linda. The confusion might be that Uncle Jim and my father had an uncle named Cornelius who was called Connie, but different from any mentioned by Linda. I was told he died young - before Uncle Jim's /my father's generation were born." See the link to his poems below.
Does anyone have any information about this Dr. Finucane?
Forty Years of Friendship: As Recorded in the Correspondence of John Duke Coleridge... - Page 323
by Baron John Duke Coleridge Coleridge, Ellis Yarnall - 1911 - 340 pages
From Ellis Yarnell to Lord Coleridge.
Steamer "Umbria", March 15, 1892.
My dear Coleridge ..... I am anxious, all the same, to return quickly. I may go back in this steamer. If I stay longer I may be in London for a few days. I should rejoice indeed if I could look
forward to seeing you once more, my most dear friend.
May God grant us at least one more meeting before the end comes ! I am in my seventy-fifth year, but unbroken health is still continued to me. I wish you could have had the comfort of a great
ship like this in your crossing the Atlantic. The electric lights, the baths, the good rooms, the ample space for walking - all these lessen fatigue. And when, as now, the nuber of passengers is
small, the feeling is almost like that of being in your own yaght. The nights have been beautiful, with the full moon, and in the early morning, when there is sunshine, the air is divine. There
are several persons on board with whom I have agreeable companionship. A group of us meet in the doctor's room in the evening and have lively talk. Dr. Finucane is a character - a man of varied
information - a Parnellite. Parnell offered him a seat in Parliament, but he wisely declined. The O'Gorman Mahon who died lately was his near relative. You will be surprised to hear that I feel
almost affection for him: I like his pleasant Irish characteristics. I have sailed with him before, and laughed and argued with him, and listened to his endless flow of vivid narrative. He knows
a great deal of secret history, and as to English politics he is wonderfully well infomred. On this great ship he has had for years society, English and American, of the most varied kind. With a
few on each voyage he has close companionship. He tells me that, since what he calls the desertion by the majority of the English leaders of Parnell, his interest in Irish politics has ceased.
Dr. Finucane must have been the ships Doctor for some time,

Katherine
Kevin's father was Andrew who had sisters Charlotte and Eileen. Charlotte had two sons, one of whom was James Harrop, my father.
James Harrop and Kevin Finucane would have been first cousins (my father is deceased) which, I believe, would make you and me first cousins once removed.
I have been in correspondence recently with Brendan Moss who is also our foirst cousin once removed. (This is complicated but his mother Mary Josephine is Kevin's half sister).
Please contact me by e-mail at cjfharrop@canaccord.com and I can fill in further information which I think you and Kevin will find interesting.
Chris
P.S. I live in Canada and Brendan lives in China!
In Reply to: Re: Brendan Finucane, RAF fighter pilot by chris harrop of 217
I have in my possesion a book entitled " Paddy Finucane Fighter Pilot" which I got from my local library (Basingstoke Hants. England ). Author Doug Stokes and first publishe in 1993 by William Kimber & Co of London. Contains a lot of photos and details of where he served and lived and his closest relatives.
I have some documentation and a family tree for my branch of the Finucane clan, mainly provided some years ago by James Finucane who himself was a Pilot at the time and living in Surrey England. I have not been able to contact him for several years. At the time, he was trying to establish a link between Brendan (Paddy) and his line of the family, and had spoken to his brother who was at that time also living in Hampshire. I would be happy to share some of the info with other Finucanes if they don't already have it
Best Wishes

Ellen Broderick was my great-grandmother. She was Daniel’s sister.
Ellen Broderick married Timothy Broderick (I have been told they were cousins).
Their daughter Nora was my grandmother and she married Michael O’Donoghue fro
Hi Michael and Jer,
I have attached marriage and baptismal information for your grandmother, Julia Broderick. Her father, Daniel Broderick, was my great-grandmother's brother. My great-grandmother was Ellen Broderick. Daniel's parents were John Broderick and Julia Connell. I live in the U.S. and I researched the church records in Duagh, County Kerry a few years ago. My Kerry cousins had started the family tree. I put the info on ancestry.com and can give you a link to my tree if you would like.
My great-grandmother's father was also John Broderick but the church records show Ellen Shanahan as her mother. John had a number of children and my great-grandmother was raised by John and Julia. I don't know what happened to Ellen Shanahan (my actual great-great grandmother).
It's so nice to meet you! I hope the info is helpful. My sources were: churchrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords and the 1901/1911 Ireland census.
Regards,
Maureen
I am trying to put together a family tree( slowly and with difficulty).
At the moment I am trying to concentrate on my mothers side -----Mary B Moloney born in
Ballymacjordan, also known I think as Moynsha , Abbeyfeale or even Duagh. She had 1 sister ( Sheila I think),known to us as Sr Consuela of the presentation convent and spent most of her life in Lixnaw and around Kerry.She spent about 10 years in New Zealand.
My Mother died in 1998 .
My mothers mother was Julia Broderick who married a John Moloney. I think he always lived in Ballymacjordan or maybe he moverd there after getting married ??? John Moloney I think died late 40's or early 50's. Julia died in 1961 and both are buried in old graveyard in Abbeyfeale ??
Do you know who either of their parents were ??( John Moloney and Julia Broderick)
The Brodericks may have been known as Broders also ???but I don't know.
I have a name of a Daniel Broderick and Julia Harnett( or Hartnett) as parents of Julia but I don't know if that is right !!! Any dates of birth,marriage death or where they lived might help if you don't know.
If I got back to the early 1800's I would be happy as I think that is as much as my children or grandchildren would be interested in.
Jerry Kennelly wrote to me and said your grandmother was a Broder from Lisroe. Your grandmother may have been a relation to my grandmother. My grandmother was Nora O'Donoghue nee Broderick. Her father was Timothy and mother Ellen Broderick. Timothy's parents were Daniel and Johanna Broderick. Ellen was a cousin of Timothy's. Her father was John Broderick. John Broderick had other children and one married a Moloney and lived in Ballymacjordan.
Have you put together a family tree?
I have been working on mine on ancestry.com.
Thanks,
Maureen

"Hello,
I googled historian and Listowel and it sent me to your blog.
I am from the Boston area and interested in local famlies of 18th century Listowel.
I am particularly wondering if anyone can tell me about the Bolton's crossroads area and which Bolton family it is named after.
I descend from a Mr Bolton (perhaps John) who married Mary Justice prior to 1752. His wife's family was descended from Eliott (McEligott?) and Fitzgerald of Castle Lick families. I believe the Boltons of Listowel might have descended from Sir Richard Bolton, the 17th century judge and Chanceller or Ireland, possibly a branch located to Mallow where most of the Justices were living.
I'd appreciate any pointers in the right direction.
Thanks,
Jonah McKenna Moss
Boston, Massachusetts"
