Can you give me some more info on the Gartlan names you have. I have not been able to find John born 1920. Have many Josephs but none with Kate King. I have quite a bit on Gartlans but need more info to see if that family is in my records. most of what I have is prior t0 1900

Children:
Ann, Kathleen, Francis, Patrick, Thomas, John and Theresa
That's all I have I'm afraid.

Hello Dave,

What denomination were the Byrne, Gartland, King and Yore families?

Hi Christopher,
thanks for taking an interest in such an old post.

As far as we know, they were all RC.

My father's name was Peter Joseph Gartlan of Drumgoolan, Dundalk, Co Louth, (d. 1995 in Ventura, CA)  His father was Patrick Gartlan of Donaghmoyne Parish, died in the early 1940's and is buried at St. Patrick's Cathedral in Dundalk, Co. Louth.  His father, John Gartlan of Killabrick, Co. Louth was born in 1865 (I think), , his father was Peter Gartlan, died 1790 and is buried in Donaghmoyne Cemetary in Co. Louth.

I had several distant Byrne cousins from Drogheda.  Thomas Byrne, Mary Byrne, lived on Bolton Street and are buried in the cemetary in Navan, along with the Corry family.

I still have numerous Gartlan first cousins in Carrickmacross, Co. Monaghan, and in Louth Village as well.   

Good luck on your search

First of all, Welcome to Rootschat agartlan and thanks for replying to my post.
I'll send you a PM (personal message) with my email address as I reckon we can share info, if you don't mind.

I started this post for one of my pals, Michael G.

Michael's grandfather was Joseph and we reckon he was born c1880.  He married Kate King.

Joseph and Kate had 7 children that we know of - Anne, Kathleen, Francis, Patrick, Thomas, Theresa and John.
Michael's dad was John Gartlan born c1920 and he died in 1964.  He married Mary Byrne.   

From the info you've given it's difficult to work out dates but I reckon there must be a connection at some point.  Perhaps your grandfather and my pal Michael's grandfather were cousins, or better still, brothers?

Michael still visits relatives in Carrickmoss.

Hope to speak with you soon.

I have a Mary Gartlan born circ 1834 who wed into the McMahon family 1853 Donaghmoyne parish, they were RC.  They lived townland Cornacrew and there were cousins/neighbours by the name of King (circ early 1900s').  Don't know if this is of any help.

agartlan, I think we are cousins, your father Peter was my mother Gertrude's brother. Is it possible to get in touch? I don't know the protocol or even if you still check this site. Here's hoping.
