Kilkenny / Re: The Old St John's - Maudlin St, Kilkenny
« on: Saturday 23 February 13 03:49 GMT (UK) »
Thanks Gerard! I appreciate that!! The one for Edward is rather interesting to me. Can't connect him into my tree but the name is appropriate. Will keep working ...
Thanks again, Martha
Thanks again, Martha
Hello Martha, sorry the for late reply. I was away with work and just checked my emails and saw there was a rootschat post from you. I looked up my book on St. Johns Graveyard and there is the following information:
Brophy: John Brophy, Michaels Lane, died 1886
(Michaels Lane is now called Michael Street)
In the families of Michael Lane (Street) of 1849 from Griffiths Valuation there is mention of William Brophy as a rated occupier.
Brophy: Edward Brophy died 1776
I hope this helps let me know if it is of use! Thanks Gerard

Hi Gerard, Does your source of info on St. John's graveyard include any Brophys? Thanks, Martha
Hi James,
I was browsing the rootchat website and saw your post. I have family buried in St. Johns R.C. graveyard , St. Johns Parish, Kilkenny too.
I have some information on the graveyard. Looking at my sources I can only find one Hanlon Grave in it; as follows:
note it is Hanlon not O'Hanlon.
Erected by Michael Hanlon, Dublin Road, in memory of his son Pat Hanlon died 1857.
Other names which appear on headstones include Holahan, Holihan in the graveyard.
Best Regards Gerard

Is this the US census? What state? Or is it Great Britain?

Cork / Re: Bowes family look up
« on: Thursday 01 July 10 06:02 BST (UK) »
I am intrigued that there may have been, definitely was?, a Bowes family from Cork who had gone by the name Bouse and Bouce. I am studying the Bowes surname and its variants and would like to know everything possible about this family. It sounds like you are saying that the six occurrences of Bowes in Cork in the Griffith's Valuation are all the same family and that you have reason to believe most of them emigrated to Boston over time. Can you give me any more details?

I was intrigued to find all your messages in this thread. I have a big Bowes and Bowe surname project going. I hope you will visit the website and become familiar with the kind of information we are collecting. There is a group of people with Bowes and Bowe surname from Kilkenny and surrounding counties whom I've been in touch with over the years. Quite a few of them have joined our DNA project and we are beginning to establish several separate genetic lines from that area, researching early origins and family connections. I am intrigued to find another line in this message thread. I wonder if any of you still have a living male in your family with the last name Bowe who could take part in the DNA project. If you know your male Bowe immigrant (date of immigration, places etc.) I can also add that information to the appropriate immigrant page.
