    Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!

    Here is a link to the online parish register for Newport RC parish http://registers.nli.ie/parishes/0246    Unfortunately, records for Newport are not online at Roots Ireland because the diocese did not give permission. If you names an dates, you can search the register.but as you know Ryan is a very common name in Tipperary.

    I need to amend my prior response. The Newport RC records are now on Roots. Do you know when Patrick and William were born? I assume you don't have the parents names.

  • Hello, I made an error in brothers names, Patrick and Micheal. Patrick was born around 1798 . If you go by Irish naming conventions or patterns, Patricks first son(fathers father) was named Thomas.  and 2nd daughter (Fathers mother) is Kate   Unfortunately Micheal left for Newfoundland and we lost track of that side of the family.

    I live in Ansonia, Connecticut, USA. It seems that some of the information you mentioned is from my Ancestry page on my grandfather.

    I saw your message on this board and would like to get in touch with you regarding the Anthony Ryan you mentioned. He is my grandfather. I see that you did DNA testing. Did you do this through Ancestry.com? What is your username on Ancestry?

     

    Regards,
