KEATING Fedamore Limerick - spanner in the works!

[Jang]

Wow, Brian, what a great find! Thanks so much for the reference - I think you've just proved my Jeffrey Keating was the one in Fedamore.

I know he graduated from the Apothecaries Hall Dublin in 1833 and I found out that apprentices were required to serve a 7 year apprenticeship, so that fits with the date of 1825 when he started.

At the time he would have been 17 years old (born 1808). The other baptism entry I found for a Jeffrey Keating was for 1814, so this one would have been aged 11, perhaps a bit young to start an apprenticeship, though not necessarily.

But what's really important is the that the JK who started his apprenticeship in 1825 and graduated in 1833 was from Croom, so now I have a definite place for him.

Thanks so much - you've made my day :-)

Great, glad it was of help! Was doing a different bit of research when I came across the list of apothecaries and remembered a fellow rootschatter had posted something about the subject so went back to find your post. Best of luck with the rest of your research!

And you with yours!

Hi,
New to Roots chat so apologies in advance.....

tracking Jeffrey James Keating, and this info seems to be referencing the gentleman I am interested in.

My line comes from Lucinda Keating daughter of Jeffrey and Margaret Nelson whom was born in county Donegal.

I working my way through the posts & links. Very appreciative, lots of wonderful info.

Thanks

Hi Felicity,
Great to make contact with another descendant! My line comes through Lucy's sister, Sarah Ann Isabella Keating, who married Agostino Vosti, a distant cousin of Antonio's.  If you post twice more here on Rootschat, I can send you a personal message with my email address. I have photos of Lucy and Antonio and their children.
Which one are you descended from?

Hoping this can still find you.
