Tipperary / The "Ryan Shone" family of North Tipp
« on: Saturday 02 October 10 14:19 BST (UK) »
I am trying to find the locality of a Ryan family in North Tipp that were known as the "Ryan Shones." (Pronounced "show-in.")
I believe they were from the Newport area but might have connections in Rearcross. My great-great grandfather was Thady (Timothy) Ryan Shone, who married Mary Carney in Castleconnell, Co. Limerick, in 1882. He was living in the townland of Coolreiry, Castleconnell at the time. Castleconnell is only a stone's throw from Newport and the Limerick/Tipp border. Thady's father's name was Michael Ryan.
Thady was a labourer and his father Michael was a farmer. I've been told that Thady worked on the Powell farm in Newport. The Powells were Protestants.
