Hi everyone,

I am making a trip in 2024; I would like to at least visit the church where my 2x gr. grandmother Mary Quinlan was baptised. It is on the border of Tipperary and Offaly counties. I hope after I find the church and can obtain some church records. I have attached the record. I would love to find distant relatives as well. 

baptism date 1838

baptism place- Moneygall, Tipperary and Offaly, Ireland

Parish variants-Barnam Dunkerrin, Moneygall and Barna

Diocese-Killaloe

Father- Malick (Malacky) Quinlin

Mother- Mary Dillon

thank you for any help,

Debbie Colson

  • I will Patricia!! It looks like Moneygall is half in County Offaly too after doing some more researching. There is a church called St. Joseph's that was built in 1820, so my 2x great grandmother could have been baptized there.

  • Hi Margot,

    My family moved away or at least my 2x gr. grandmother in the late 1850's we think. She (Mary Quinlan) first went to Bolton, England and married Michael Flynn in 1862 before they immigrated to the USA in 1865.

    thanks,

    Debbie
