Hi from Australia.

The only information I have on this family is the following.

My 3x Great Grandmother was Elizabeth 'aka Betty, Lizzie etc'  Nolan born 4th June 1840 to parents William Nolan & Kitty 'Catherine' Gorman.  Sponsers were James Nolan & Kitty Hurley.

Elizabeth married David Fitzgerald in Doon 14 Feb 1863 (I have the details downward from there of BDM etc)  They had their chidlren in Murroe Boher/Turagh

Elizabeth Fitzgerald Died 13 Nov 1899 Cappamore.

I have no more on William Nolan & Kitty Gorman (Cashel & Emly state there was no marriage in Doon) I have searched but as so many names are the same and not knowing the area, it was hard to go back any further than this.

William & Kitty other chidlren were

Mary b 12 May 1834 Toomaline, sponsors Toby Butler & Kitty Hurley

William b 25 Feb 1838 Toomaline, sponsors James Nolan & Mary Cormack

Julia b 27 Oct 1842 Toomaline, sponsors Michael Nolan & Mary Ryan

Honoria b 12 Apr 1845 Toomaline, sponsors Thomas Quirke & Mary Butler

Patrick b 8 Mar 1849 Toomaline sponsors Phillip Ryan & Mary Ryan

 

On the 1850 Griffith Valuation there was a WIlliam Nowlan at Upper Toomaline renting of Landlord Patrick Kilbridge Esq, and other Nowlans near by....I do not know if they are from my line and how would I find out?  

 

Other than that I presume the line stops here.  Thoughts.

I would appreciate any leads or other family connections.  Thank you

 

Kind regards

Karen Ryan

  • Hi Karen, Catholic  church record's for  the parish of Doon, which is in the diocese of Cashel and Emly started baptisms  1824, marriages  1839. For Morroe  and Abington baptisms  1814. Marriages 1815. Also in Diocese of Cashel and Emly. 

    Both parishes near each other both in Co Limerick.  Nolan seem,s to be a scarce  name in the Area.

    I found a John Nolan in Doon south  aged 40  with  his uncle  Parish Priest Fr  John   Shelley  both born in Co Tipperary in the 1901 census.  Plenty  Gorman,s in the area  mostly in  Cappamore.

    Headstone inscriptions for Abington Morroe  on Tipperary  Studies  Digitisation  Project.  Headstones for St Fintans  graveyard  Doon on historicgraves.i.e..

    Could not find death cert Elizabeth Fitzgerald  on Irishgenealogy. 

     

    Do  you have DNA   done..

    Let me know if you have any queries.
