I’m looking for more information of the Hill and Lyons families of Aghabulloge.  Thomas Hill and Mary Lyons were married in 1840 at Aghabulloge and many of their children were baptized there.  Almost all of the family migrated to Jersey City, NJ, USA.  The father Thomas Hill died 13 Feb 1886 in the Townland of Gurth, Inniscarra.  His widow and youngest son Jeremiah then followed the rest of the family to Jersey City. Gurth apparently had a papermill and the son Jeremiah Hill was later listed in Jersey City directories as a papermaker.

Here is a list of the children I could find in Cork Catholic parish registers

Child                   Baptized            Father                   Mother                    Sponsors                                         Parish                              Townland?

Joanna*             5 Feb 1843         Tom Hill                Mary Lyons             John Hill/Peg Lyons                     Aghabulloge

Jerry*                 13 Aug 1862      Thos Hill               Mary Lyons             Wm Lyons/Hannah Hill              Donaghmore                                 Beharing (Berrings?)

 

I’m descended from Charles Hill.

Thomas and Jeremiah married sisters in Jersey City, Mary and Hannah Lynch.  The Hills and Lynchs were said to be neighbors in Co. Cork.

Any additional information would be most welcome.

Thanks,

Roy
