Hi,

 I am wondering if anyone can help me decipher some references to Banns/Dispensation on
two marriges in church records.


I would like to know what the initials  D.S or D H mean under the heading Denuntiationes on this marriage record - Hoping I will be able to attach two photos....

I think Denuntiationes means Publications  possibly publication of the banns??

The second query also relates to a marriage entry in a church record -   

It says "Dispensaton in 4 & 4  IV ( could be 10) - Con Gratibus"

Does the 4& 4 refer to months maybe?   Not sure if it is 10 or IV after that.

I don't know what the Con Gratibus means?  Is it with guidance???

I originally posted this on the "Cork, Ireland" board but was advised to post it here for the "deciphering Latin experts"!!!

Hi,

I am hoping some expert here might be able to help me find my GGGrandmother's parents.

Her name was Hanora ( Nano) Coughlan of Cullenagh ( sometimes spelling Cuilinagh), Kildorrery.   She married John Leonard on 7th February 1885 at RC Chapel at Shrahaila in the registration district of Kildorrery.  Her father is named John Coughlan, on marriage cert, and a farmer  (deceased.)

I haven't been able to find a birth for her - showing her father as John, lots of other Hanora Coughlans with various spellings.

I did find a marriage for a John Coughlan to Catherine Myres ( sometimes spelling Myers)
on Feb 6th 1864 Kildorrery.

I am really trying to find her birth/baptism details which would show me her mother's name or her parents marriage.

I would be delighted if someone could point me in the right direction or know this family.

Thanks in advance

Hi,

I recently came across an old "DESMOND" family photo album in my mother's home place in 
Co. Cork, Ireland.  These photos were sent to my mother's family from Canada.

Two of the photos were taken in Canada.  The 1st was of Humphrey Desmond born in Co. Cork Ireland about 1871.  He was living at Pinkerton, Ontario.

The second photo was of  Cleophus Desmond and she wrote of the "Old Desmond homestead " at
Pinkerton.  She also mentioned she was living at Quinn Blvd. Longueuil, Quebec.  She also mentioned Mrs. H.L Packard ( turns out to be her married name).   Having searched the net I did find that she married Howard L.Packard and was living in Chilliwack, B. C.  Humphrey Desmond was Cleo's father.   I am looking for any ancestors of Humphrey & Cleo and am anxious to find the link to our two Desmond families.

Humphrey's parents appear to be Patrick Desmond b 1837 Cork Ireland and Martha Wall born 1838
Ireland.   Patrick died 1911 in Greenock, Bruce South, Ontario.   Martha Desmond died 1909 Chepstow, Ontario.

Patrick & Martha had 11 children -
Mary Ann, John, Thomas, Ellen, Catherine, Johanna, Humphrey, William, Martha, Margaret, & Jeremiah.   Many of these names are associated with the Desmond family.

I would love to hear from any ancestors of the above.

Hi to all on Mayo forum.

Just wanted to let you all know about a new website with some information
on assisted emigration in the years 1883/1884 from the North Mayo area.

A commemoration has just taken place in Mayo to mark the 130th Anniversary
of the first sailing from Blacksod Bay to America & Canada.

This assisted emigration was arranged by a man named James Tuke, a quaker.
This was initiated in an attempt to address starvation in the West of Ireland.

It assisted 3,000 people from  Achill, Erris and Belmullet areas of Mayo in the first
year.  A year or so late it helped a further 500 most of whom were relations of the
first group.   

The ships departed from Blacksod Bay.

The ships' manifest is available to view on
www.blacksodbayemigrants.ie

In some cases it gives the townland area where the emigrants came from so this
would be very helpful in trying to find out where exactly your ancestors may have
originated.

Good luck with your searches, hope this is some help.
