Seeking Honora Hogan Born c.1846 Mitchelstown Co.Cork

[nikkiijo]

Hello All!

I'm searching for my Great Great Grandmother Honora Hogan Born c.1846 Mitchelstown Cork. Her Marriage Cert lists her parents as Michael Hogan & Catherine McCarthy.

She emigrated to Australia some time before 1878.

I can find no records relating to Honora Hogan, or her parents. I am wondering where the best place to find information is? I would be most grateful for any assistance at all

Many thanks!

Cheers,

Nikkii

Hi There

I can see the baptism for Honor on rootsireland which is a pay per view site and will cost 4 euro to see a transcription of the record.

Honor Hogan baptised 1846
Parents Michael Hogan & Catherine McCarthy
Church ~ Mitchelstown Roman Catholic Church

Playing around with the free index shows other children baptised in the same parish church with the same parents.

Catherine Hogan 1843
Michael Hogan 1854
Bridget Hogan 1856
Michael Hogan 1857 (first Michael must have passed away in childhood)

Hi Tara,

That's great! Thank you!

The Marriage Cert lists his profession as 'Handyman'.

Is there any way of tracing her parents Marriage or Births/Deaths?

Cheers,

Here is a possibility for Michael Hogan on the GV !

I can't see their marriage on the same site but it could have been mistranscribed.

Deaths are much trickier to find as there are a lot more variables.

Again, do you have an occupation for Michael ?

Tara

[taramcdsmall]

Sorry, just saw that you gave his occupation there.

Hum Handyman is a tricky one as it's comparable to Labourer in that it's hard to find records for people with those occupations.
