Wicklow / Re: Patrick Byrne, Goldenfort, Wicklow ... how to find his Australian records???
« on: Thursday 20 February 14 20:26 GMT (UK) »Hi,,,there is a service record for a Patrick Byrne b 1855 Baltinglass,,,,he enlisted in Armagh in 1877,,,,served till 1882,,,he was a groom by trade,,,gave his next of kin as his father Patrick.
His record states he was signed off due to debility. He was in Aldershot in 1881,,according to his sickness record,,,so he may be the Patrick Byrne in the 1881 census in the army at Aldershot ,,,,search for Patrick Byrne b 1856,,,then choose the result in Hartley-Wintney/Hampshire.
Hi gortonboy ...
we were just wondering where you found the info above as it seems to fit quite well with what we know of Patrick? Many thanks. Patricia

if this is your man,,,maybe ,,as he was a groom,,he worked with horses in the army,,,then later volunteered to work with them again in a civilian capacity in Australia.
What is the source of your info that he was in Australia working with horses ?

Thanks for the reply gortonboy. It is an old family story re: Australia. Patrick came back from Australia and bought the land that the family now live on. His brothers grandson gave us the info re: breaking horses. It is quite possible that he worked with horses because his uncle was a coachman on the local estate so perhaps patrick was a groom there??

Wicklow / Patrick Byrne, Goldenfort, Wicklow ... how to find his Australian records???
« on: Sunday 16 February 14 20:00 GMT (UK) »
We are searching for details about Patrick Byrne - born approx. 1856.
He is present in 1901 census of Ireland in Goldenfort near Baltinglass with his brother and sister.
What we want to find out is when he travelled to Australia and when he returned?
What we do know is that he worked at breaking horses for the British Army in Australia??
Is there a way to look up British Army records for 1850 - 1900 in Australia as well as emigrants from Ireland to Oz.
Would really appreciate help to show us where to start looking.
Also how would I find his parents??
Many thanks,
Patricia

Wexford / Brigid Braddle (Braddell), Wexford
« on: Monday 27 February 12 21:12 GMT (UK) »
I am looking for information on my gg-grandmother Brigid Braddle (it can be spelled a couple of different ways).
She married John Murphy. Their son James (my great grandfather) was born in 1864 and was baptised in Kilrush, Co. Wexford. They had other children also. As far as I can gather, Brigid died in the 1920's but I can't find where she or her husband are buried - not buried in Kilrush anyway.
On the Baptismal Cert, James' sponsors are listed as Patrick Braddle and Rosanna Purcell. In Griffiths valuation, there is mention of Patrick Braddle in Tombrack, Ferns.
Braddell was a well known name in the Carnew / Kilrush / Ballingate area at one stage and I do wonder if there is a connection to those Braddells.
If anyone can help, I would be most grateful. Even if I knew where they were buried, I could visit the grave.
Many thanks.

Wexford / Re: Moulton / Warren
« on: Monday 20 February 12 21:52 GMT (UK) »
Dear Ron,
I'm not sure if you are still checking this link so I will just leave a quick message and see what happens. I have just joined the forum so I am checking back through lots of old topics in case I see anything of interest or that I can contribute to.
Re: Moulton ..... just this very day I made a family tree for a neighbour of mine (Sutton is their name) and back through their family tree there are Moultons and I am almost certain I saw the name Barnahask.
If I hear from you, I will share what I have.

I have often heard my aunt & uncle talk about a Sam Leggett and he (and his family) lived in Coolafancy, Co. Wicklow. But this is literally on the border with Wexford so it could be ...
