Tipperary / Motens of Roscrea
« on: Sunday 01 May 11 11:50 BST (UK) »
Hello there,
As it stands from independent research and a scribbled family tree by my Grandmother, I have found this ancestral line of the Motens in Roscrea:
James Moten -M.- Eliza Letson Great Great Great Great Grandparents
|
ˇ
Jack Letson Moten -M.- ? Great Great Great Grandparents
|
ˇ
John "Jack" Moten (Bn. 1877) -M.- Elizabeth Henderson (Bn. 1884)
[appears as Morton on 1911 census] Great Great Grandparents
|
ˇ
Margret "Dolly" Moten (Bn. 1907) -M.- Joseph Murphy (Bn. 1906) Great Grandparents
We know that "Jack" Moten (GG-Grandfather) lived on Bunkers Hill and was the first Butcher at Roscrea Meat Products.
Any help would be much appreciated

Kildare / Bodenstown March - 1957
« on: Sunday 10 April 11 16:19 BST (UK) »
I have a photograph of my Grandfather at the Wolfe Tone Commemoration at Bodenstown in 1957, as part of the Roscrea branch of Sinn Fein.
I'm wondering whether there is: any further information on the speakers, more photos or any additional information on that particular year, I'm aware that it had a larger turnout following the death of Sean South and Fergal O'Hanlon. Any information would be very much appreciated.

may I recommend you purchase 'They Put the Flag-a-flyin' by Kathleen Hegarty Thorne. Picking up my copy it has mention of both Hugh and Patrick Gilblin.

Roscommon / Mordachy "Mardy" O'Connor of Yambo, Mantua in War of Independence
« on: Wednesday 09 March 11 14:59 GMT (UK) »
Hello,
I have been researching my relatives from Roscommon, my Great Grandfather was Mordachy "Mardy" O'Connor (sometimes noted as Murtagh, Muireadach) he fought with the 2nd Batt. North Roscommon, Mantua Unit of the Irish Republican Army, he was the Adjuant of "A"Company (1919-1921) and the Company Intelligence Officer (1921-1923).
He is listed in the excellent book 'They Put the Flag A-Flying' as Martin Connor - I have since been in contact with the author who has provided superb documents which have provided me with all this information.
I was wondering whether anyone local or a local historian could provide any further information on him or his family? Any help would be much appreciated.
Thank-you for your time.

Cheers for the advice I'll try to get on to that but knowing how my Nan was with papers I may be out of luck.
A). General information, ancestors, history - I'll take whatever I can get
