Ongoing Loughery/Loughry family search

I attached a photo above but I don't see it...did it not go? let me know if anyone sees the photo of Mike with his horse.

Great photo!  If you click it, it will come up.  Brilliant to attach this.

Jane.

I'm getting stuff together and will send to you in the next week or so.  

Jane,

I was hoping you'd see the photo. I also sent it to Mike Lockery's g-g grandaughter here in WI & she was thrilled. I have a few more I'd like to send you...how would it be best to send them to you? thru this msg board?

Hi Mary and Jane,

Just in case others are doing research I am posting some of the emai I sent youthat maybe of assistance to them

Here is an account of what checking I have done already.

My name is Amber Genett and I am the gg grand daughter of Mike Lockery.  I'm also a genealogist and working with Mary on the Lockery side of the family.  Itneresting thread.

Hello all,

We've been searching the on line data bases & also have ordered some documents from the GRO to help in our search for  my Loughery/Loughry line.

We have not yet found my exact family but we did get back a generation earlier on the direct ancestral line of Robert Burke of the USA. We learned of Robert's Loughery/Loughry from Sr. deLourdes Fahy. The father of Robert's Cornelius Loughry (the one that married Bridget Hennellly) was named Edward from townland of Boulaphaudeen – and Bridget’s father was John, a farmer, from townland of Kilafin.  Cornelius and Bridget were apparently married in a civil ceremony in Gort in addition to the church ceremony (or perhaps they just recorded their marriage in Gort).  In any case the civil record of their marriage gave the fathers’ first names.

This Edward is very likely the Edmond listed in the 1855 Griffith Valuation on Derrycallan South Townland, whose descendants “moved” to Boulaphaudeen and then back to Derrycallan South.  The respective farmsteads on the two townlands are in fact only about a half mile apart!

Aine, we do appreciate all you've done to help in our search. I'll try to get you pictures very soon!

Hi Mary,

That is interesting.I have had a quick look at rootsireland.ie and I did not see any of those records.Did Sr.DeLourdes have another source?BTW the Hennelly's are still in Kilafin.I know them very well.

Hi Aine,

Sister DeLourdes Fahy, from a search of Beagh church records, has Cornelius & Bridget being married on the 16 of Feb. 1871, apparently at a church ceremony.  It seems they were married both by Civil & Church ceremonies .   Don't know where church marriage happened, whether in Cornelius' Beagh parish or his wife's Kilbeacanty parish.  Sr. De Lourdes's e-mail seems to suggest that all 5 children were born in Boulafadeen.   By the 1901 census they were living in Derrycallon South.

We found the  Civil Marriage Record for Cornelius & Bridget on the 'rootsireland.ie' site - East Galway Family Historical Society. The name Loughry was mispelled - it was listed as Cornelius Loughly ; wife Bridget Hennelly. Hope that helps clarify things.

I wonder if Robert Burke ever visited the Hellelly's? We have lost contact with him recently. Not sure if it's from health or travel.

Thanks for all you do!

Mary

Hi Aine

Here is one of a couple I'll send to you. Not sure who the 'guy's are in the pictures but I'm sure many if not most are from Ireland.

inside a cabin...not sure where or who.

My g-grandmother, Mary Loughery Mollon, born 1859 in Oshkosh WI to Cornelius & Jane Gardner Loughery/Lockery. The 3rd lady from the left in the print dress.

Mary is the older sister of Michael M. Loughery/Lockery that I posted early.

Their parents Cornelius & Jane were born in Ireland.

Hi Mary

Thanks very much for the information and photographs.They are very fantastic.

 Looking at the wills and testament reference online at the national archives site I found this reference  to John Loughrey of Boulaphandeen County Galway d.1904

http://www.willcalendars.nationalarchives.ie/reels/cwa/005014913/005014913_00410.pdf

and Margaret Loughrey d.1903 of the same townland and leaving to the same person.(It is on the same link above.)

Also the national archives have put on line some extracts from the earlier census that have survived.These details were from pension applications after 1909 where people were using the census of 1851 or 1841 to support their claim as to their age. They had no birthcerts at that time.

The National Archives of Ireland have put more records on line today including Census Search Forms, 1841-1851; records of searches in the census records pre-1922 to provide proof of age as eligibility for the Old Age Pension, introduced in 1909. These records give names and ages of members of the family in 1841 or 1851, and very often the maiden name of the applicant?s mother.

Here is the link to the all the new material 

http://www.nationalarchives.ie/2014/04/new-genealogy-resources-now-online-2/

Here are some links to Loughrey in Kilbeacanty and Beagh in 1851.Peterswell is an adjoining parish with close ties to Kilbeacanty.http://censussearchforms.nationalarchives.ie/search/cs/results.jsp?censusExtractYear=&applicantSurname=Loughrey&applicantFirstname=&applicantAddress=&fatherSurname=&fatherFirstname=&motherSurname=&motherFirstname=&county=Galway&barony=&parish=&townland=&city=&search=Search        

Could I ask about the timeline.You have said in your original message that  Cornelius Loughrey left for the states around 1846 and the marriage certfrom Roert Burkes  is from 1871 in Galway.What is the link between the two?

Thank you for the links you sent....we will have to check them out.

Interesting about the John and Margaret Loughrey will references....Andy will have to dig out his chart & see how they fit. He has listed all the Loughery's, Loughrey's & Loughry's in the area around Gort and made family links to many. We have not found any link to my Cornelius but it has to be to one of those families.

The Cornelius Loughrey Sr.DeLourdes found is no relation to my line. It just happened she had helped Robert Burke recently & found his g-grandmother was Mary Loughrey, child of Cornelius & Bridget. So when I inquired about a (my) Cornelius Loughrey she sent me that data and then we found additional children. Still none of them related to me...that I know of.
