McCarthy's of Cloone
« on: Sunday 08 November 09 14:59 UTC (UK) »
I am having difficulty finding any church records for my ancestors the McCarthy's. My 3*great grandfather John McCarthy was born about 1828 in Cloone, County Leitrim. He married Mary Cunningham around 1858. He had a brother Matthew McCarthy born about 1829 who married Anne Dwyer or Fass in about 1860. John & Mary moved to Percy Main near North Shields in Northumberland (now Tyne & Wear) in about 1858 and Matthew and Anne followed them in about 1860. They were all Roman Catholic.

I have tried the IFHF site but there are no marriage or baptism records. I did find a Mary Cunningham born 1833 baptised at Gortletteragh RC, father William Cunningham. John and Mary did call one of their sons William however UK census and her civil death record indicate she was born 1837 or 1838. The church does fall under the civil parish of Cloone however so it could possibly be her.

Does anyone have any information about the McCarthy's, Cunningham's or Dwyers in Cloone or can explain why there are no records of the marriages?

Thanks, however the IFHF site claims to have all the Cloone and Aughavas records online and nothing comes up in the search. I have noticed that the NLI parish register lists suggest that for Cloone there is a gap in the baptisms between 1820 to 1834 and that the marriage records end 1849. Is this correct? What happened to these years missing years?

It would explain why I can't find any records as both the baptism and marriage records I am looking for fall in the 1820's and 1850's.
