Hello, the following link to the Kildare Genealogy web site will enable you to search on the 1901 Census, also Births, Marriages and Deaths for Kildare, you will need to register and there is a 5 euro charge for each record.

My Grandmother and her Family are shown on the 1901 Census as living in Rathasker Road Naas, they are shown as Household number 8 and were called Mangan, is this the time period the Coady's you are searching for were in that area, if so maybe the families knew each other.

Hi,
My Family were at 16 rathasker road so i would say for sure that the family's knew each other.
I have a book which may interest you called In the Shadow of the kings by James Durney which mentions A robert Mangan and also a sean Mangan . The book is about social housing in Naas and just gives names of Tennants and some lovely old photos. Might be woth looking it up. Small world hey x

Hello again, the book looks interesting have you got the ISBN and I will try to get it. My Great Grandfather was the head of the household when the family were in Rathasker, Naas Ireland, he was called Christopher Mangan, however he did have brothers called Robert and James and also a Sister called Mary that I know of, their Father was called John Mangan and Mother Bridget, nee Murphy, and my Great Grandfather Christopher's Birth details show him as being born at Main Street Naas, I do not know of a Sean Mangan.
I suspect the families would have known each other as I have seen an old map of Naas and there did not appear to be much housing in the Rathasker Road area.

Hi,
I had a read of the book where the mangans are mentioned and its very brief just saying where they moved from and to in 1940's still in naas still an interesting read though as it gives you an insight into what life may have been like then.
I'm not sure what the isbn ?? is i googled the book and came across the authors email then asked hime for a copy might be worth trying.
I emailed the library in Kildare and they sent me a copy of the 1911 census for rathasker road i'll try and forward the email to you when i have more time if you like. Are your family still there now ?
Funny you mention the  Murphy name. My Maiden name is Murphy and my dad was born in Naas however i haven't done the murphy tree yet as there are so many being a common name in ireland.
Will forward on the email later ..take care liz

Hi, My Great Grandfather Christopher and his immediate family left Ireland at some point between 1901 and 1911 as they show up on the England  1911 census living in Birtley Co Durham, I also know they lived in Gateshead and his daughters and sons all married and brought up Families including my Grandmother, they all died in the Gateshead area, however as I mentioned in my last mail my Great Grandfather had two brothers that I know of Robert and James and it could be their line that is living on in Naas to this day, I am still trying to find info on them, also possibly my Great Grandfather's Father John who married Bridget Murphy may of had other sons that I am not aware of as he lived in Main Street Naas where my Great Granfather was born so the other sons could have married and settled in other areas of Naas as did my Great Grandfather in Rathasker. I would like to try to get further back than my Great Great Grandfather John Mangan as the records on the Kildare Web Site go back quite a way.
Thanks for the offer of the census, I would appreciate it if you could send it through and I will try mailing the author of the book to see if I can get a copy.
When you mention you maiden name is Murphy I have corresponded with a guy who lives in our area of England who's relatives also came over from Kildare and when I mentioned my Great Grandfathers Mother was a Bridget Murphy he said that there was a Family of Murphy's lived in Main Street Naas and suggested that maybe my Great Great Grandfather John Mangan may have married one of their Daughters Bridget as he was from that area of Naas.
Also believe it or not but on my Mothers side my Granmother's family were called Murphy and her Parents were both from Ireland, one obviously Murphy the other parent a Curtis, I think they were from the Cork area according to my Aunts on that side who are still alive, funny enough my Grandmother was called Elizabeth Ann Murphy.
I am not called Mangan by the way, my Grandmother on my Father's side was Josephine Mangan Daughter of Christopher my Great Grandfather, she married my Grandfather in Gateshead North East England in 1915. A lot of Irish people came across to North East England to work in the mines in the early 1900's, on the England 1911 census my Great Grandfather Christopher and  both his sons are shown as working in the mines.
