Does anyone know of the cemeteries in the Polbrock/Stabannon area that RC were buried? I've checked the ones online, but there must be others? Especially for people who died before 1920?
-
If it is Stabannon / stabannan, Co Louth, Kilsaran Grave yard is close by as is Dromin. Have family from Stabannan who are spread between those 3.

Sorry it took so long to reply. I thank you for the three names of the gravesyards. I'll try and check them out, or see if someone could check them out for me.
Thanks again,
Cathy

Just announced at mass yesterday that there is a book coming out soon on the Grave yard inscriptions in Dromin in the next few months. Being wrote by Fr Michael Murtagh. What family names are you after. If I am at any one in the next week or so I will take a look, also heading to a small grave yard in Richardstown soon which is also in the area
-
That would be most kind. I am looking for Thomas Dunne b:(abt) 1828 d: (abt)1870. Son of Patrick Dunne, wife's name Margaret Dunne (nee Grimes) of Pollbrock. I sure hope you find something, I have been looking for him for 5 yrs now without any luck at all. Hard for me to search the graveyards being thousands of miles away. Thank you again, I truly appeciate it.

Hi there Went to Dromiskin, Co. Louth and Stabanna Grave yards yesterday. No Dunnes. Also none in Richardstown that I could see - alot of stones there unreadable and buried. Can't find "Polbrock". but will keep looking. sorry.
-
Thank you so much for checking. I don't know where my people went! After finding them in the latest 1901 Ireland census, they just seem to have disappeared!
Thanks again for all your help.

Will still keep a look out. Good luck.
I'm looking for Carrolls in Stabannan and surrounding areas. Everyone heard of Polbrock - but cant just place it. Its an Irish name anyway.
-
Pollbrock (Polbrock) is 1-2 kilometers north of Stabannon and about 1 kilometer west of the M1. It's rather a rural area. Not to far from Castle Bellingham, and very close to Stabannon.
I've heard of the Carroll family, as a matter of fact they were suppose to have been close friends and somehow related to the Dunne's. I'm pretty sure you will find them in the Stabannon area. Best of Luck and keep in touch.
Thanks
Cathy

Hi Cathy,
Lost in the past right now. If you have any Info on how Dunnes related to Carrolls it would be great, any info is some info.

Did you ever find your Dunne ancestors? I "think" my Richard Dunn b. circa 1815 who was from County Louth may be related? As I find a Richard Dunn in the Tithe Survey for Pollbrock. I haven't ANY clue to who his parents were...his death certificate does not name his parents. He removed from Ireland post 1850 - yet to find him on a ship manifest, for the state of Michigan in the USA. He was married to a Bridget, and their two children were; Betsey and Michael. THey may have had more children, but to date these are the only two that have surfaced. I descend out of Richard through Michael b. 1840 in County Louth and died here in Michigan, he is my Great Grandfather. Betsey never married. Any help? ::)Thanks, Michelle

Hi there I am going to ask my dad about Carroll and Dunne familys of that area he is in his 80s and great for the history of those places as he is origionally from there still has family there.His family name is Faulkner but his grandparents were known as the cobbler murphys and also Lawlesss from Dunleer.Also go on facebook and look up the genealogy research assistance group they will help you free of charge also the louth genealogy group. Also I have done a lot of research on my family and a lot of people from that area ended up in Liverpool try census for Liverpool
-
I am looking for any info on Anthony Dunne, b. 1834, Castle bellingham, Louth. His father was also Thomas Dunne
-
I can tell you that Anthony Dunne was a witness in a case against a Thomas Carroll who assaulted a man which resulted in his death, This case was on 18th November 1884. If you go into find my past Ireland it is viewable.

To CathyGietl,
In case you are still looking I have information on a Thomas Dunn (not sure if it is the same or not - no "e"), In his military records he claims to be born in Braganstown, Louth, Ireland - in about 1832.
He died in August 1869 - but not in Ireland- rather in Nevada, USA.
I only know about him between 1861 and 1869 and would really like to find his parents or family. It sounds like you may have done a bit of research into the Thomas Dunne/Dunn of that place and time so I would enjoy any insight you could also give me.
Regards,
