Raynes of Cork
« on: Tuesday 19 October 04 22:12 BST (UK) »
Looking for any information on a line of our family that originated in Cork.  Henry C Raynes was Harbourmaster of Cork 1873-1877.  His brother John George Raynes (b1822) moved to England and changed his name to Ryall.  He married in Birmingham in 1866 and his marriage certificate lists him as a widower, so he may well have been married in Ireland beforehand.  His father is named as John Ryall, although I suspect that this is not true. ???

Any help/suggestions on where to look next would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks Kate for the suggestion.  I have a look and although I didn't find 'my' Raynes, I did find a couple of names that may be worth further investigation.  I shall keep looking.....!

Thanks again
Julie

Hi Kate
Haven't had much luck with this part of the family, so not sure if there is a James Raynes or not - haven't come across him yet......

The name Raynes is registered in counties Down, Mayo and Kildare start of 1900.
No hits  for the name in Cork
Saying that Henry C Raynes was Harbourmaster  and might have worked in Cork  for a period of time and moved  back to where they came from.

Had a look in the 1911 census  and found 7 records in the whole of Ireland for the name Raynes
The name Ryalll gives 128 records, found no Henry C but DID find a John George Ryall born about 1858 and his wife Susannah and son Thomas Robert, all born in Cork. John George Ryall was a J.P Farmer I do not know what that means. 2 children were born son Thomas only survived, he was born about 1885. They lived in house number 3 in  Ballynoe (Gortroe, County Cork)
The Ryalls  were members of the Church of Ireland, giving away the English background a bit.


The first Ryall in Cork was John Ryall born about 1842 in County Cork, who lived with his son Thomas born 1866 in county Cork  and his sons wife Mary born 1871 in county Limerick.

The eldest Raynes  was Martin Raynes born 1838 in County Galway, farm servant of the Grady family of Slievemahanagh, County  Mayo
So a good bit of information on the Ryalls  but hardly anyting for the Raynes  name.

Hope you can use this information, happy searching
