Maiden Stone just like you said I have learned more about Irish history in your last message then anywhere else. In Canada we don’t learn anything about Ireland so this is exactly what I needed. I have struggled for 5 years trying to find birth, marriage, death dates, where people are buried etc. Now I am at the stage where I want to understand what life my ancestors actually led. Siann, Ruskie and Hallmark, all of you have been great offering help, suggestions and I thank you.
Maiden Stone there is a gap between the children. 3 were born in 1843(year after marriage of 1842), 1846,1849 then gap to 1857,1859 then finally 1861 and 1863. Maybe the gap Thomas was away working, but all children were born either Tullygony at the beginning or Rafeenan near the end and as previously mentioned burial records for Thomas and Elizabeth is Rafeenan.
Another interesting thing I discovered. On Thomas and Elizabeth marriage record it said Thomas Morrow was a witness. One of their sons Thomas Jr who married a Mary CARSON on 12 May 1870, their witness was a William Morrow? Can’t figure how Morrow and Mary Murrragh who rented next to Thomas and Elizabeth could be related?
This has been so great everyone again. You all have me so excited to keep going. Was so frustrated but not anymore. Amazing people!! THANKS👍🇨🇦
