I dont know where my Annie Kerry was from, I only know that she was in Bradford in 1893. It is only a guess that she is the same as the Annie Maria Kerry that was living in Leeds in the 1891 census.

Re: Kerry Surname family history

leesmob — 2012-02-25 02:05:12Z

Does anyone have an Annie Kerry in their tree who was born c1869 in the UK? In 1893 Annie, a domestic servant, had a child named Albert Edward Kerry (my g/father) in Horton Workhouse, Bradford, Yorkshire. Although father was named as Albert Edward on baptism record, neither Albert's birth or marriage cert name a father so he is likely illigitimate and the name made up at baptism - to save face perhaps.

Cant find Annie in Bradford in 1891 census or in 1901. In 1901 Albert lived with a family named Lumb as an 'adopted son'. There is no death or marriage for Annie in the area between 1893-1901.

There was an Annie Maria Kerry in Leeds in 1891 who could be her but I have also 'lost' track of her by 1901.

I am fast running out of ideas, any suggestions would be appreciated.

Re: Michael Henry Reardon, Tralee, 1830s

Wotan2u — 2010-11-09 04:46:41Z

A slight correction to my earlier post: the elder Michael O'Riordan was an established Draper in Woolens and Linens in the town of Killarney.

Michael Henry Reardon, Tralee, 1830s

Wotan2u — 2010-11-09 04:39:03Z

I am trying to find other descendants of my Reardon (Riordan) family, including branches of the family which never left Ireland. Michael was my gg grandfather after whom I was named. He was born in 1804 in either Cork or Kerry and was living with his family in Tralee in the 1830s. His parents were Michael Reardon and Catherine or Bridget O'Callaghan. His siblings were: Eugene, James, Catherine, William, Ellen (who married Francis Healy in 1827), Robert and Elizabeth. I believe there was a connection with the MacGillicuddys, if only by marriage. Both Michaels were drapery and woolens merchants in Tralee. In 1835 Michael Henry was one of the first signatories to the Petition to repeal the Penal Laws against the Catholics. He was himself a Catholic and well-educated. His wife was Sarah Dwyer or Dyer and she may have been Dutch. They were married in Cork on 14 February, 1833 by Father William Scanel. The couple had several daughters, including Margaret, Jennie, Sarah and Elizabeth. Elizabeth was my great-grandmother and she was born in Tralee 30 May, 1841. According to family tradition, Michael attended Trinity College, Dublin, and was an early member of the Young Ireland Party. He was also said to be connected in some way to Daniel O'Connell--and a possible relationship may be indicated by the fact that O'Connell had a first cousin, Dr. John O'Reardon, who was his personal physician. Michael was active in opposing the English rule in Ireland and was considered persona non grata by the Government. He and his family left for America in 1843, settling in Wisconsin, USA. The Reardons became a prominent family there and Michael was a close friend of Abraham Lincoln's debate opponent, Stephen A. Douglas. Any information about this family will be gratefully received. Thank you. Michael Haines

Re: Captain Charles Kerry, Master of the "Foyledale"

CyrilDaynes — 2009-10-10 15:05:06Z

During a recent visit to St Andrews Church in Norwich, I came across a brass wall plate in the 'Suckling Chapel' commemorating the wreck of the 'Foyledale' and specifically mentioning the loss of the Captain's wife and daughter. Her last words were said to have been:"Be brave men! God is with us"

None of the church officials I approached seemed to know how or why the plaque was there.

Hi I noticed your posting whilst looking for information on Arthur Crane. This was the name of my great grandfathers brother, he was a Sexton at Lytham and from the 1912 census the church appears to be St Cuthbert's. Is this where your relatives married? If so, the witness was probably him!If you have not managed to find more about Elizabeth Kerry let me know & I will try to search the 1912 census for her

Hi, sorry but all my Kerry family are from the Norfolk and Suffolk border aread around Eye and Diss. It is a fairly common surname in this area.

It is also a common surname in Derbyshire and Lincolnshire,so the former is perhaps more likely for your Ann.

I have found a Harriet Duckmanton christened in 1837 on the LDS site, an extracted record, daughter of Joseph Duckmanton and Mary Ann.
Mary Ann was born Mary Ann Riley and her father's name was Clement which no doubt accounts for Harriet naming her son Clement.
Joseph and Mary Ann were my husband's 3xGt Grandparents, their son William was his 2xGt Grandfather.

Hi there,
there was an Emma Ada Kerry born in Holloway, Middlesex around 1861, daughter of Edward and Caroline. She is on the 1881 Middlesex census, living at 13 High St, St Pancras with her parents and siblings. I'm not saying she is your's, but you have to be careful, people always presume Kerrys are Irish! Have a look at her marriage cert for the witness names - they may help you make a link.

Kerry/Listowel/Lyreacrompane-AHERN/San Francisco/EUREKA

RAhern980 — 2008-05-09 03:49:08Z

EUREKA

From the Greek heurēka I have found; from the exclamation attributed to Archimedes on discovering a method for determining the purity of gold; akin to Old Irish fo-fúair he found. So too, I have found my Paternal Ancestral roots in Lyreacrompane (formerly Knocknaglough), Listowel, County Kerry! Please bear with me as I share my breakthrough!
Although, long for a posting, I believe it is very important to thank all from this site who have responded with suggestions and assistance during my search. Even more importantly, I want to encourage all who might be interested in their own heritage to keep looking for your ancestral roots!

Several years ago, I commenced a search not knowing where it would lead. I had limited information but received encouragement, from my friend, “Patsy in Redwood City, CA”. Keep looking!

My initial resources, for this particular search, included: The LDS site, Familysearch.org; Social Security Death Index; Ancestry.com; Ellisislandrecords.org; and rootsweb.ancestry.com.
These expanded with my search to include: County Kerry Genealogy (http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~irlker/); Griffiths Valuation 1848-1864 (http://www.failteromhat.com/griffiths.php); Kerry Library Tralee (http://www.kerrycolib.ie/local.asp); The Ahern Family (http://homepages.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~aherns/).
San Francisco and California resources included: San Francisco Genealogy (www.sfgenealogy.com).
And in Ireland: The Irish Rambling House (www.irishramblinghouse.com).

In July and August, 2007, my wife and I vacationed in Ireland, for the very first time. We looked for records in Listowel relating to my Grandfather, Patrick Brown Ahern, but were unsuccessful. We were looking in Listowel not knowing Lyreacrompane was approximately 12 miles to the south. Prior to arriving my knowledge about my Grandfather was limited, to the following:

PATRICK (BROWN) AHERN, born 1879, Knocknaglaugh, Daugh, Listowel, Kerry, Ireland, and

ANDREW (BROWN) AHERN, born 1886, Knocknaglaugh, Daugh, Listowel, Kerry, Ireland

A third brother, name unknown, remained in Listowel, to tend the family farm near “Knocknaglaugh”. That brother purportedly had a son who in turn had five children. Two of those children were Esther Ahern (who married Conner last name unknown and may have moved to England) and Mary Ahern Stark (a nurse),

We were looking for “Knocknaglaugh” but nobody knew where it was located. The librarian in Listowel could not find the name among old townlands. Later we met a wonderful lady, near Moyvane. She translated it to mean “Hill of the Ducks”. Still later we would learn a more correct translation was “Hill of the Rocks”.

I purchased a book in Moyvane, “Logainmneacha”, Place names of North Kerry, including Tralee and Ballymacelligot, by Dan Keane, also of Moyvane. His translation was “Hill of the Rocks”. We had to continue on our trip and were not able to closely examine the contents of his book until arriving home.

The book, on page 43, under the heading LYREACROMPANE, lists “Knocknaglough” (which has a one letter difference in the spelling we had). In the book it is translated as “The hill of the stones”. With this new information I went back on the computer after returning home and refined my search.

I then began to post on several Genealogy sites, hoping someone might provide assistance. “Kate from Chicago” read my posts and contacted me offering her assistance. Her knowledge and expertise led to Kate becoming my guru, mentor, and my friend! Her fundamental advice was as follows:

1. Acquire all US documentation available; death certificates/obituaries
2. Let the documents point the way
3. Don't get hung up on dates of birth -- only glance at them for about a 10 year range
4. Don't get hung up on spellings/middle initials/"reported" middle names, etc.
5. Work from the 1930 census backwards
6. Post, Post, Post!
7. Subscribe to lists!
8. SHARE your research!
9. Ask/don't tell a researcher what you need; include dates/places!
10. **Be open minded**
11. Put things aside and come back to them a few months later -- you may find new posts.
12. DON'T spend time on research someone has already done.
13. Be open to all distinctive names/similar given names
14. There are Gen pages for all US counties - start at usgenweb.com and click down
15. Take family lore with a grain of salt

A response, from IRL-Kerry@rootsweb.com, led to the Archivist, at the Kerry County Library, in Tralee, who in late January, 2008, provided the following critical, but condensed, information:

I have taken Knocknaglough as a starting point to search our available records. This is limited to the 1901 and 1911 census returns. "Ahern" was a pretty common surname in the townland (3 out of 6 family returns in the town land are Ahern’s in 1901 & 3 from 7 in 1911), but there are some distinctions to be drawn.

1901:
FAMILY 1:
Johanna, aged 60, Widow & Head of Family.
Ellie, aged 30, her daughter.
Michael, aged 24, her son.
Andrew, aged 18, her son.
Mary O'Brien, aged 6, a visitor.

1911:
FAMILY 1:
Michael P Ahern, aged 35 & Head of Family.
Mary, aged 28, his wife.
Johanna, aged 71, his mother & a widow.
Ellie, aged 37, his sister.
Patrick, aged 2, his son.
James, aged 1, his son.
Joseph, aged 1 month, his son.

Family 1 seems to be the closest fit to your one. The presence of an Andrew in 1901 (even with a somewhat wrong age) would be a strong indicator of this. Michael would be the "third brother" that you refer to in your message. The addition of "P" to Michael's 1911 census entry would also indicate that his own father had the initial "P", which would tally with Patrick being his father's name. It was standard practice to use the father's initial to differentiate between landholders of the same name in a townland. Meeting 3 Michael Ahern’s in the same place would be a bit of a nightmare otherwise!

As for church records, our notes here indicate that Knocknaglough would have been part of Kilshenane Civil Parish. This became a part of the greater Listowel Catholic Parish area, and records (if they survive for that portion of the parish) will be there.

About this same time, we discovered a concurrent computer search, on Familysearch.org, which indicated someone else had been submitting data on family siblings, a full 10 years older than my grandfather, Patrick Brown Ahern, and all derived from Patrick Ahern and Johanna Brown, Lyreacrompane, Duagh, Listowel, Kerry, Ireland. Those new names were: Honora Ahern, 5 Jan 1867; Johanna Ahern, 22 Jan 1869; Catherine Ahern, 14 March 1872; and Patrick Ahern, 2 Jan 1879. Clearly there was another person researching this same family. But there was a problem! The “submitter” contact information was outdated. It became quite frustrating to see the “family data” on Familysearch.org and yet not be able to find who had submitted it. Never give up! We did a Google search for the name of the submitter. This information would ultimately lead to newly discovered family connections in New Hampshire, Florida and Massachusetts and mail from a newly discovered US cousin, indicating:

“My Grandmother, Mary Josephine 'Minny' Ahern’s birth was recorded in St. Bridget’s Chapel at Duagh, Kerry (a stones throw from Listowel) on 4-Dec-1880. (Baptized 12-April-1880) She was the 11th of 13 children of Patrick Ahern and Johanna Brown. She had an older brother Patrick and a younger brother Andrew. Her father Patrick was born in 1829 to John Ahern and Honora Broder. Patrick and Johanna 'Ma' Brown were married 30-Jan-1866 their 13 children were - Honora, Elizabeth, Johanna, John, Catherine, Ellen, James, Michael*, Catherine, Patrick, Mary, Andrew, and Margaret. *(Michaels grandson Dan still lives on the farm at Lyreacontane townland earlier records have it as Knocknaglogh ) Family 'lore' has it that Mary immigrated to help care for her older brother’s children when he was widowed.”

Next, out of the blue, I received mail, from Lyreacrompane, in response to a posting I had made on IRL-Kerry@rootsweb.com:

“A Chara,

I'm enclosing copies of articles that mention both the surname Browne and Ahern. I copied them from 'Lyreacrompane & District' Journals. I hope they are of some help to you. There are a couple of Ahern Families living in Lyreacrompane. Lyreacrompane has a web site www.lyreacrompane.com you might find it interesting. Lyreacrompane & Duagh are one parish with the same Parish Priest, Fr. Pat Moore, who resides at the Duagh Presbytery.”

Slán,
Kay O'Leary

Kay O’Leary, God bless her, provided the definitive information I had been trying to find. “Dan James & Pat Ahern are brothers and reside in Knocknaglough”. I believed they were my second cousins. Kay then verified, “They are related to you!” “Pat said his grandmother’s name was Browne. He remembers hearing about a granduncle/great granduncle going to California but he thought that he never married”. Their sister Mary Ahern Stack resides in Daugh. EUREKA!

Lyreacrompane is pronounced “Lyre a crum pawn” and lies between the towns of Tralee, Listowel, Castleisland and Abbeyfeale. There is one Post Office/Shop (Nolan's), one pub (Roche's) and a Catholic Church, each of the buildings about a mile apart. The population is approximately 300. Lyreacrompane claims to hold Ireland's real rural Festival. They pitch a marquee next to the pub for a weekend. The “Dan Paddy Andy Festival” takes place during the first weekend in August each year.
Now it is time for me to make the long journey home and pay my respects to my newly found family. I am the first male Ahern descendant to return home, to Lyreacrompane. And, to make this journey even more memorable, I will meet my new cousins for the very first time! On top of that, I have been invited to officially open the “Dan Paddy Andy Festival.

To all who responded to my many postings, go raibh mile maith agat!

To Patsy, Kate, and Kay, each of you are dluthchara!
Thanks to all who have made this search successful!
go mbeannai Dia thu,

IF ANYONE CAN PROVIDE MORE INFORMATION ON THIS FAMILY< IT WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED.

Kerry born in Jamaica abt 1877

fionacandlish70 — 2008-04-25 01:59:17Z

Would anyone have knowledge of Eliza, Elizabeth or Lizzie Kerry born abt 1877 in either Spanish Town or near Clarendon in Jamaica?

I am trying to find details of my great grandmother, who is listed in the 1901 British census as having been a "British Subject" born in Spain. I saw a comment in Ancestry about a Kerry in Spanish town in 1877 and wondered if there was any coincidence that it could be the same person.

Clement was actually a Duckmanton as Harriet did not marry until well afterwards, although my my mother never mentioned that! Herbert also wa born before they married.

He lived in Guildford and I vaguely recall my uncle H and aunty Rose. I was actually born in their house! In 1940.

If you are a member of the Genes Reunited you can get the connections from their hot matches section.

I have been in contact with a Melvyn Duckmanton who has great details about the Duckmantons from Worksop and Warsop in Nottinghamshire. He cannot find any Harriet that fits the bill so I wonder if Harriett was married to a Duckmanton having been something else prior to that.

Best Wishes

John

I am looking for information on William Kerry and Harriet Duckmanton. They had four sons, Clement, Herbert, William and Frederick. Their son Herbert Duckmanton Kerry married Rose Richiardi, and they had two children Margaret and Irene. William's parents are Henry Kerry and Sarah Gosling.
Any information would be greatly received, especially the marriage details of William/Harriet and Henry/Sarah.
