A list of burials for Clonegal cemetery only has one Thomas Brennan recorded and while the records say that no all headstones may be recorded, it's very extensive.
Brennan Thomas, 85, Monaughrin, 25/5/1922
There are also records for other Brennan's named,
Mary, Elizabeth, John, Margaret, Bridget, Winifred, Bridget, James, James.

Many thanks for your reply,
At this early stage I really don't have no idea at all if the gravestone of the Thomas Brennan or any of the other Brennan's you mention are connected to my Thomas Brennan.
All I have so far is that the Thomas Brennan I received details of yesterday died 1909 and is buried in Clonegal. As the family appear to have been Roman Catholic, I'm presumming Thomas senior would also have been R.C.
I will most definately keep the information you sent as it may come in useful at a later date.
Once again thank you for taking the time to reply.
Regards Jackie

hi there
i have just taken a look at the baptismal parish records for clonegal, and can find no thomas brennan, there are two brennan familys baptising there children around 1885/6, they are from springfield and ballyredmond. It may have been the case that he was not baptised, or maybe not entered in the register. Also this is a transcription of the register that i am reading, and maybe when it was being transcribed the reader maybe could not decipher it.
The 1911 census shows a 14 year old thomas brennan living in ballyredmond. living with his mother and two siblings(possibly) as a servant of the redmond family.
I hope this is of some help to you.
all the best
pete

Hi Noxas
You are right, but the Thomas Brennan that Jackie is looking for would have been born around 1885, so this could be his dad or an uncle or the like?
I will be down there sometime and will have a look in Clonegal and Kildavin Cemeteries if I remember.
All the best
Pete

hi again
Fortunately, I will be paying a visit to LDS tomorrow, so amongst other things, I shall look up the 1901 census for springfield and ballyredmond. I do hope I find your Brennans.
all the best

hi again
couldn't get springfield, LDS did not appear to have that reel, though springfield is actually in wicklow, but in moyacomb civil parish which is a mixture of carlow and wicklow townlands, from what i saw today.
but here is Brennan, ballyredmond 1901 census
house number 10
patrick brennan farmer 63 head of family
mary brennan 60 wife
james brennan 33 son
john brennan 31 son
michael brennan 29 son
mary brennan 27 daughter
annie brennan 25 daughter
katie brennan 23 daughter
lizzie brennan 22 daughter
house 11
john brennan farmer 40 head
margaret brennan 38 wife
michael brennan 13 son
charles brennan 10 son
thomas brennan 8 son
margaret brennan 4 daughter
there is one thomas there, though he was born about 1893, though that is not that far off. considering that from my own experience, looking at my own family history which would be in this catholic parish too, alot of them as adults never really knew accurately how old they were. Usually when i've seen the birth record and seen the gravestone, it is not uncommon for them not to match up.
I hope this has been some help
all the best

just looked up the baptism on rootsweb
1893 Apr 25 Brennan Thomas Johnbrennan and Catherine kelly Ballyredmond
http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~irlcar2/Clonegall_1893.htm
All the other children of this family have there mother as catherine according to the transcription on rootsweb.
I know that it says that john brennans wifes name is margaret on the 1901 census, maybe one of two things, first the census ennumerator(the person who took the census details) wrote down margaret by mistake, or secondly, and more interestingly was john married a second time?
I hope this has been of help.
all the best

Hi you guys, many, many thanks for your information, unfortunately I've not been keeping up to date with the site because my young foster child has been seriously ill for most of the year with an unidentified virus, he's now much better and on the road to recovery.
The last month has been hectic getting ready for a visit from my Irish and American side of the family, they've now all left so I can get down to dealing with my many emails.
I spent months and months researching the Brennan's of Clonegal, because I was sent details that the young Thomas had a travelling show and his father Thomas had been a land steward, it all seemed to fit, so spent a small fortune getting births, marriage and death certs only to discover that it's probably not my Brennan's.
The certs show that the Thomas I thought was Thomas the land steward was in fact a farm labourer and couldn't read or write and he died 1905 whereas on my Thomas's wedding cert 1907 Co Cavan his father is not listed as deceased...but it hasn't been to no avail, the old boy who was giving me the info (grandson of Thomas the father was thrilled with the BMD certs infomation and I also had the Carlow Webmaster put the certs on the site just in case any other researcher needs the info.
I will also mail details to the Carlow website of all the info you have put on the site, I'm sure that they will be thrilled.
In the meantime my Thomas Brennan's remain a mystery.
Thank once again.
Kindest regards Jackie
