I just discovered a Larrigan family from west Meath Larrigans. Two rs in the name. A James Larrigan who had a son Peter Larrigan born 1855 same year as my great grandfather Peter was born. The only mismatch is his dad been James Not Joseph.

That James of West Meath had a son Peter and he was born in west Meath 1855 but he had a sister Bridget born in 1859. She was born in Kildare. So this Larrigan family moved from West Meath to Kildare sometime between 1855 and 1859. What this does show that there was west Meath Larrigans moving to Kildare. And my Peter born 1855 was in Kildare when he married. This is a first conformation of relation between Kildare and west Meath. Other lost West Meath Larrigans may have moved to kildare too.

I have no Bert cert to prove that my grate granddad Peter was born in Kildare just married there. This new west Meath 1855 berth could be him (despite father name wrong.) I been putting together the west Meath Larrigans family tree as a result from my old records and newly discovered records of west Meath baptisms records not state berth records.

There is now much more west Meath Larrigan families before 1880 I had not got at all. Despite them all the new families in West Meath still have many missing links between them but when records of Larigans with one r is researched there is one or two links or matches. At least in terms of the places of residences. There are also signs of Larigans with one r in the name moving to Kildare from west Meath aswell making it difficult to link the families in Meath.

Kathleen from Kildare was named as Larigan with one r in her name and she married a Hughes. Her father Hugh Larigan. I wonder if this Larigan family was one of the Larigans that moved from west Meath to Kildare. I know thet did. I also wonder now about my research on west Meath Larrigans having matches with the Single rs Larigans as if they were of the  same or extra  families relations,

I hoping this post will supersede my much older post I made where I said I only knew of 4 larrigan families in west Meath after 1880.  My regards to The Pollard family related to my grate grandfather Peter Larrigans lost son Peter Larrigan who married Mary Pollard.

What is uncovering is important because there is a lost Larrigan family living in England and Australia  that is related to a Francis P Larrigin of Ireland and there is a Francis born in west Meath related some how to the 1955 Peter and a large American Larrigin family related to co Wicklow and to a James Larrigan born 1834 in Wicklow who father was Thomas who must have been born about 1800. However there must have been many Larrigans in west Meath before 1820 and I suspect that Thomas was one of them and he moved to Wicklow about 1830

Don't know if this free website is any use to any of you...

http://www.irishgenealogy.ie/index.html

It contains loads of BDM church Records RC & Church Of Ireland

Some, but not all have the actual copy of the church record!

I've found loads of my Brady family's baptism on there for Co Dublin.

The website is being updated continually, so well worth checking it out from time to time.

Hi guys
 have been reading the Larrigan history with great interest My Grt,grt .grand mother was Mary Larrigan from Westmeath (Married name Tate/Taite) while I don't  know too much about her  I have come across the name spelled as Larigan,Larrigan.Largan and occasionally Langan in the same family whether this  is a result of mispronouncing or spelling I don't know, also there are Pollards in Westmeath.
Cheers Susan
