Kildare / Shaughnessy-Power families, Barrettstown-Waterstown.
« on: Friday 30 June 17 16:47 BST (UK)  »
Hi,
Looking for any information on the James Shaughnessy / Alicia Power families?

Here is what i know so far;

James Shaughnessy married Alicia Power on 26 February 1865, in the RCC of Caragh.
He is from Barrettstown, she is from Waterstown.  Marraige witnesses are, John Smullen and Mary Byrne.

His fathers name is also James Shaughnessy, her fathers name is William Power, we don't have their mothers names as we can't locate any birth certificates for them.

They have 3 childern;

Bridget born 1865 and baptised on the 17 September 1865, we think she may have died as an infant, but we can't locate a death certificate or a birth certificate for her. 
I got the baptism information from another site.

Patrick born 27 January 1868, died on 29 June 1946 (My Great Grandfather).

Catherine born 1872, we think, couldn't locate a birth certificate.  But we do have her death certificate, she died on 22 September 1951.

James died sometime before 1901, he isn't on that census form, but we can't locate a death certificate for him, or a birth certificate.

Alicia is on the 1901 census form as Allis, still living with her son Patrick and daugther Catherine in 11 Albert Place Dublin.
We don't have a death certificate or a birth certificate for Alicia.



Looking into the Clongorey Evictions;
1883 James Shaughnessy and family as being the first person who was evicted, surname spelt differently in the text of the video, we were curious to know if this is the same James Shaughnessy.
The connection to O Kelly, OldConnell Barrettstown is there, it comes up in the Griffth Valuations.

Also found some petty court session things for James Shaughnessy.

Thanks in advance for any help given, which is greatly appreciated.
