Cummins of Creagh Parish

[pkincaid]

I am wondering if anyone has done any research on the Cummins of Creagh parish, County Cork.  The 1831 Tithe records have a John, William and Michael Cummins holding land in Creagh townland, Creagh parish.

I am suspicious that they are the family of my ggg grandfather Michael Cummins (born c1800) who came to Kings County, New Brunswick, Canada from County Cork in 1819.  John, William and Michael are strong names in our Cummins family.

My Michael Cummins married here in 1824 and had the following known children: David (c1825- 7 Jan 1900 m. Mary Ryan), John (c1827 - 1904 m. Catherine McCrossan), Ann (4 Apr 1830 - 23 Jul 1917 m. John Hourihan), Hugh (c1832 - 1921 m. Margaret Dean), Eliza (c1835 - ? m. Cornelius O'Leary), Michael (c1836 - 31 Mar 1924 m. Mary McGinn), and Mary (c1838 - Nov 1876 m. William Carney).  Treat these dates of death with caution as some come from unsourced family notes.

Thank you for your help!

Hi. I am descended from Cummins family of Creagh. However, in the 1820s parish register of Skibbereen and Rath parish, their name is Cummane.

Below are four baptismal entries from the parish register of Skibbereen and Rath parish for children born to Patrick Cummane and Joan Driscoll. These were sent to me by a researcher at the Skibbereen Heritage Centre. ... I believe Mary is my great great grandmother, and her sister Ellen married a man named William Haley. The Haleys emigrated to Sullivan County, New York, in the late 1840s (1848, perhaps) and my great great grandmother followed a few years later, in 1852 or '54.

John Cummane baptised on June 4th, 1820, Townland of Creagh
Andrew Cummane baptised on Jan 1st, 1822, Townland of Creagh
Ellen Cummane baptised on Jan 25th, 1824, Townland of Creagh
Mary Cummane baptised on Oct 1st, 1826, Townland of Creagh

Best wishes, Tom Leek
