I am seeking any information on the Daly family from Kilbbeggan, in County Westmeath.
My grandfather possibly James Daly was a land owner and there is a James Daly listed in Griffins Valuation and also a James Daly listed under Irish flax growers in 1796.
When I visited Ireland in 1992 I stopped by the now nerarly derelict farm which at that time was being used by a local fishing club..
Does anyone have information If anyone can help I would appreciate it.
Many thanks, Anthony Daly

Hello, I am trying to locate some relatives whom I believe originated from Tyrrells Pass, would you be kind enough to give me the address you contacted for your enquiry as I would like to submit a similar one for surname Johnston.
Thanks
J

Thank you Bob,
Yes probably Fineas was one of us, but my grt.grt.grandfather was a William born (I assume about 1790) Sure it must be a relative but maybe a brother?
My grt.grandfather was Robert Hardcastle Johnston (says on his tombstone born 1821 Newtown, Co. Westmeath) I cannot find any trace of him in this area. The only thing I have found is a Benjamin Hardcastle Johnston who emigrated to Ontario Canada in about 1850, this I am sure is a relative as I have established they came from Westmeath. So frustrating I cannot find the actual place of birth I am wondering if the parish records would help.
Thanks for your help, any suggestions would be appreciated.
Regards
J

Hi Anthony,
Welcome to RootsChat 
two long shots here:
Official Authorities, County WESTMEATH 1834
http://www.from-ireland.net/auths/west/west1834.htm
mentions three DALYs
(2 magistrates, Joseph Morgan and Owen D. and a Captain C. Daly) but very little information, otherwise.
and in Dec. 2003 there was a query on the Rootsweb Westmeath list about Mulingar residents, in particular an Anne DALY who married James LEE.
http://archiver.rootsweb.com/th/read/IRL-WESTMEATH/2003-12/1070441707
Does that fit in with any other details you have

Dear Sarah,
Thanks for offer. I have discovered that most of my relatives are buried in Relic cemetery in Kilbeggan and also in Durrow Cemetery .
I have traced my grandfather Martin J Daly b 1876 gg grandfather Joseph Daly b1838 and ggg grandfather Thomas Daly b 1792 .
Initially I saw on an old map , townland survey 1838 that there was Daly's land near Tyrellspass also Cornacher where later the Daly's had a small farm. Is it possible that if you can search for any Daly's buried when you next visit I am sorry I have no names but would be interested in brothers and sisters.
Look out for either "Cornacher" or "Kilchloghan" which is on all of their birth or death certificates.
Thank you again
Anthony Daly

I am trying to find any further records of Fineas Johnston of Newtown, Tyrrelspass, Westmeath.
My great great grandfather was a William Johnston of Westmeath circa 1790. My great grandfather was Robert Hardcastle Johnston of Newtown, Westmeath. 1818. If anyone has come across any records relating to these I would be very interested.
Thank you
J
