Hegarty, Dillon, Diamond
« on: Tuesday 27 April 10 18:38 BST (UK) »
Would anyone be willing to look up my Glenullin families? I have the Hegarty, Dillon, and Diamond families in mind. My great-great grandfather Patrick Hegarty died around the turn of the century(19th) and his wife's name was Mary(not sure if she was a Diamond or Dillon). Patrick had at least 5 children including my great grandmother Catherine/Katherine, who was a cousin of Monsignor Bernard Henry Diamond. Something about Patrick's estate was published in the Coleraine Constitution, if anyone has access. Does this ring any bells?

Welcome to Rootschat. I've split your post from the Glenullin thread so it wouldn't get lost.

“Bernard H Diamond (Monsignor) was born in Brockabouy now Hillside Road on 7th January 1872. When he was fourteen years old his family emigrated to America. He was ordained on 9th June 1900. In 1923 he became Protonatary Apostolic. He served mainly in the Sacred Heart Cathedral in Dallas Texas. He died on 7th December 1941 and is buried in Calvery Hill cemetery in Dallas.”- St. Mary’s Ballerin (2005)
1900 Census- St. Louis, St. Louis, Missouri: Bernard H. Diamond, Jan.1872 Ireland, student, to US 1886.
1910 Census- Fort Worth, Tarrant, Texas: B.H. Rev. Diamond, 39, Ireland
19 Aug.1929 “Baltic” Cobh, Ireland to New York: Rev. Bernard H. Diamond (age 57)
20 Sept.1935 “Washington” Cobh. Ireland to New York: Bernard Rev. Diamond (age 62)
Parents were Manassas Diamond and Mary Mullan and he had at least one brother, Patrick (born 23 Aug.1869).

Did your Catherine Hegarrty come from Brockabuoy? was she born 4 July 1875?

Not sure what would have been in the paper about Patrick's estate but if you have the date of the paper I'll try to find it for you.

Hello, thanks for the quick reply! :o The birthday I have is July 11, the year 1880-1883. She had an older sister named Susan born about July 1865, who married a man with the surname Saxe. Here is my transcription of the paper I have:

 "In Her Majesty's High Court of Justice, Ireland

There is a Mary Hegarty who was born 1st March 1871 in the parish of Errigal
Her parents were Patrick Hegarty and Mary nee Dillon.

 There is also a John Hegarty born 4th Jul 1873...parents Patrick Hegarty and Mary Dillon
 
They look like they could be Catherine's siblings

I have a copy of that also. There would have just been a small legal notice in the paper but will have a look in Constitution.

Have a Patrick Hegarty of Brockabuoy, died 1880 wfe Mary Dillon- known children: Martha (26 Feb.1865), Daniel (1 Feb.1867), Patrick (4 Feb.1869), Mary (1 Mar.1871), John (4 July 1873), Catherine (4 July 1875). Not sure if this is the correct family.

Hi, the names seem to match up, but I'm not sure if it is the right family either. Since all of their names are pretty common. I was hoping Aunt Susan Saxe could be the link, because that surname is so uncommon in Ireland. Thank you so much. ;D

I think Susan Hegarty/Saxe may not have stayed in Ireland- suspect perhaps she went to U.S. but haven't found her there yet.
