I am searching for Derbyshire Kerry's. The ancestors of Rachel Kerry B.1822 (Spondon.) died 1812. I know nothing of the family she is from. Does anyone have a tree?

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 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 — 2008-11-16 04:59:08Z

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: Eliza Kerry b. abt 1850 of Horham, England

jackieevans157 — 2006-11-03 15:01:04Z

I have been researching Kerry's in this area and although Henry and Eliza are not in my direct line, I have a small amount of information which might of of assistance.
Henry was married to Harriet and worked as a labourer.
They had other children as follows, all baptised at Horham on 25th Jan. 1850: Betsy, Ellen, George, Jane. As Eliza was not baptised until 1854 I imagine these are all older siblings.

Hi Derek,

I have just read you message left on 03/11/2000 regarding Maria.

I have a Maria born c.1824 at Horsham St. Faith, Norwich, Norfolk. Her parents are William Kerry born c.1797 and Mary (Unknown) born c.1795. William is a brother of Henry born c1802 who is my 3xg grandfather. I am afraid this is all I know at present.

Hope we have a match. Penny

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.

Not sure if you still use ancestry.ca. My name is Gerald Dyer the grandson of George Arnold Carey, his father Felix Abraham carey, his father Abraham Felix Carey, his father Laurent Querree, his fatherJean Baptiste Carey, and finally his father Simon Carre. I've seen Pat Carey's info on the net and found some of the info possibly incorrect. I've got info from Mary Carey who is now deceased, the sister of George Arnold Carey. If you have any info different than Pat Carey's I'd love to hear from you. I'd also be interested in getting any information off of you about your family history and how you are related by blood line to Simon Carre and his wife Marguerite Gaudreau. I hope you still use Ancestry.ca. Please feel free to email me if you like. geralddyer@shaw.ca

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.

Antoine Kerry/Quiery and the Post of Michelle McGuire/Michilimackinac

ishapespace — 2007-09-03 22:51:19Z

Francoise Beque is the only one that I have.... and I know absolutely nothing about her but that she married Antoine Kerry/Quiery/Quieri sometime before 1771. Also, I believe that the Post of Michelle Maguire is actually a bad translation of Michilimackinac, which is now a part of Michigan, but was in Canada at the time. Both family names show up there at that time, though I hae been unable so far to make a specific connection. What do you have?

Pierre Antione Kerry(Querry)

ishapespace — 2006-06-04 22:43:25Z

I am in search of information on Peirre and Antione Kerry(there may be a spelling variation). Pierre is Antione's son. Pierre was born in Canad in or near a fort. Pierre bought property in Natchitoches Parish Louisiana in the early 1800's. Any information on either of them would be greatly appreciated.

Antoine Kerry and the Post of Michelle McGuire????

ishapespace — 2006-06-04 22:43:25Z

I am in desperate need to know the location of Post of Michelle McGuire. The spelling may not be exact, but that is the name. A marriage record from Louisiana says that Pierre Kerry (MANY variations of the spelling of the last name) was born there in 1771. His father was Antoine Kerry and his mother was Francoise Beque, and I know nothing about either of them. ANY information would be greatly appreciated, on any Kerry's in any area of Canada. I know that Pierre came to Louisiana sometime before 1808, and he was married in Louisiana to Marie Rosalie Joseph Frederic.

Thanks,
Brittaney Kerry

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.

Hello,

A good place for details is a site wparkinson.com where Wendy has included great details about the Kerrys. My mother was a Kerry (Edna Mary).

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
