Mayo / Patrick RYAN/RYANS-Mary HENRY, Lowpark, Co. Mayo
« on: Wednesday 02 May 12 19:10 BST (UK) »
My great-great grandfather was Patrick RYAN or RYANS. He was born about 1835 in Ireland. His father was Thomas RYAN; his mother's first name was Ellen.
Patrick married Mary HENRY; the date/place of this event is unknown. Mary was born in Ireland about 1839. Her father was Patrick HENRY; her mother's first name was Bridget.
The birth record for Patrick and Mary's son Patrick has the following information:

Superintendent Registrar's District: Swineford
Registrar's District: Lowpark
1870 Births Registered in the District of Lowpark in the Union of Swineford
County of Mayo
#395
Place & Time of Birth: Fifth March 1870 Barse
Name: Patrick
Sex: Male
Name & Surname & Dwelling Place of Father: Patrick Ryans, Barse
Name & Surname & Maiden Name of Mother: Mary Ryan, formerly Henry
Rank or Profession of Father: Landholder
Signature, Qualification & Residence of Informant: Mark of Patrick Ryans, Father, Touroe
The above information came from FHL Film 101203. I was unable to find a marriage for Patrick Ryan/Ryans or Mary Henry, or any other children born to them.
Patrick & Mary's next known child was born in Boston, Massachusetts, USA in 1872, so the family immigrated to America between March 1870 and March 1872. The names of the rest of the known children, all born in Boston, are:
Bridget-Born March 1872
Thomas F- Born 10 March 1873
Ellen-Born March 1875
John J.- Born 28 November 1877
I have all of their birth and death records, and the last name in all of them is spelled "Ryan", with no "s".
Due to not knowing when Patrick Sr. and Mary were married, I do not know if Patrick is their first child. They seem to have roughly followed the Irish naming pattern for naming the children and all of the names seem to have been represented expect for "John"; don't know where that one comes from. The name of the father or mother's eldest brother would have been the next namesake in line.
I am hoping that this information may resonate with someone who might have similar folks in their family tree and can toss me a crumb of information or two. Or even some suggestions on where to look next. I'm in America and seem to have come to a dead end on this side of the pond. Any help in any way, shape, or form, is welcome and appreciated. Thank you!
