Hi
I am looking for information regarding James Fanning of Tipperary Town in Co Tipperary. I believe he was born about 1850 from his age on his marriage registration. His father was also James Fanning. They were both bakers. I wonder if he had his own bakers shop?
James married Eliza Lynch on 16 July 1869 in Tipperary Town. Eliza was born about 1851. Eliza's father was John Lynch and maybe Margaret Wade (I got this information second hand but I have no proof)
I have 6 children listed for James and Eliza but I believe there could be more. I believe i will only find out for sure with a search of the parish registers in the Tipperary Catholic Church. Can anyone do this?
Children -
- Robert Fanning b Sep 1870 Spittal Tipperary died Apr 1872
- Mary Fanning b Nov 1872 Spittal Tipperary
- Catherine Fanning b 1878 died 1951 ( I have some information about Catherine - I can not find a birth registration and wonder if she was baptised)
- Eliza Fanning b Nov 1882 Henry Street, Tipperary died 1954. Eliza is my great grandmother and I have some information about her.
- Mary Anne Fanning b Jul 1887 Bankplace, Tipperary I have some information about Mary Anne such as marriage and children so far
- Frances Fanning b Aug 1891 Union Workhouse Tipperary
There is a 6 year gap between Mary and Catherine and a 5 year gap between Eliza and Mary Anne where I believe there could be other children born. Catherine, Eliza and Mary anne all ended up in London after 1901.
Any help with this family would be greatly appreciated. I would be very interested in birth information and death information regarding the parents James and Eliza.

Hi
Thank you for the information regarding Anthony Fanning I shall go and look for a birth registration. I had already found a Bridget Fanning living in Tipperary census in 1901 and 1911 quoted in a book called County Tipperary by Noel Farrrell. I will need to get hold of the originals census documents. Anthony was missing in both but the Tipperary Barracks is very close by and he was most likely there in both census.
I have the same with Catherine Fanning she is in the town while her husband Joseph Leahy is at the barracks. in the 1901 census.
thanks again

Hi
I just found a marriage for Anthony Fanning and Bridget Obrien in Oct 1902. This Anthony's father was a John Fanning a tailor not James Fanning a baker. So Anthony is not a long lost brother after all.
This still also means that the Bridget fanning I found in the 1901 census is still unaccounted for. A Bridget is mentioned as the witness on Catherines marriage in 1896 so she is either a sister, a sister in law, an aunt or a cousin. But still no leads.
thanks

thank you Seanmac
I have that book by Noel Farrell. I think my next step is to acquire the real census information. That way i can get ages to try and match to birth registration years.
I do know 100% that the Leahy family on Dillon St in the 1901 census is actually Catherine Leahy nee Fanning and her two children. The May Fanning is most likely her younger sister Mary Anne Fanning. Her husband was with the army in Africa on duty with the Boer War.
I also believe that the bridget Fanning on Church Street may prove to be the witness on Catherines marriage registration. When i get hold of her age I will be hopefully able to identify a relationship... maybe an aunt.
thank you

Thank you Corisande
I had a look at some of those projects and sites you mentioned. I will most likely order a few certificates.

No I haven't had my DNA done. I thought it had to be a male relative that did DNA. My family is 5 girls. I would have to contact a cousin in England to get it done on my behalf.
Do you know if it is male or female DNA for the test.
regards
Jackie
