Herlihy/Foley/O'Donnell in Ballynacourty
« on: Monday 10 November 08 04:42 UTC (UK) »

Greetings from a new member in Melbourne, Australia,

I'm searching for information or suggestions for useful sources to help track down a family from Ballynacourty. The details I have:

Thomas Herlihy, born c 1826 to John Herlihy & Mary Deen/Dene. Thomas had two sisters that I know of - Catherine (who is buried in Ballynacourty with her mother) and Bridget who went to the US. Thomas and his wife Catherine (nee O'Donnell) emigrated to Victoria in 1857. With them was John Foley, possibly son of Thomas Foley & Mary Cahill. I don't know if he was from Ballynacourty, but he was a good friend of Thomas's.

Any suggestions for good sources most welcome.

Thanks

Thanks for the info, but the John Foley I am looking for emigrated to Australia and died there in 1884. (I should remember to put the country in, I forget that there is a Melbourne & Victoria in Canada).

Cheers, LGee
