Hi, my great great Grandmother was born in Millstreet in 1808. This info was taken from the English census of 1841.She married a Sgt Charles Leslie of the 10th Foot regiment (The Lincolnshire Regt). They were married at Fermoy church on the 1st September 1826.I wonder if there are any relations to Ann Murphy who may still reside in Millstreet. Any Information if forthcoming would awesome.

Anne Riordan, If you ever read this, we my be distant relatives, you just quoted my family tree as my brother has traced it back even further. The Sullivan side was in Littleton, New Hampshire in 1900 from families out of Boston. It would be fun to investigate.

Hello, my father’s great grandparents are from Millstreet – Timothy Riordan and Julia (Sullivan) Riordan. They were married March 5, 1867 in Millstreet. Their fathers are both named Daniel. One of their 8 children, Timothy Riordan (my father’s grandfather), emigrated to Boston, Massachusetts when he was 24 years old in 1899. I’m not sure if any of his brothers and sisters came with him. If anyone has any information on the family or any descendants who may still reside in Cork, I’d love to hear from you.

Thank you,

Hello;
Nice column. I would like to find out about my grandfather’s family which left Millstreet about 1873 and moved to North Easton, Massachusetts just outside of Boston. My grandfather was John T. Spillane who was 6 years of age at the time. His family, I think, included the Sheehan family.
I am really curious about my grandfather’s uncles who moved to Australia.

Thank you very much,
Joe Krkowski

Could you tell me where I could find information on our Family that originated from Millstreet in the 1800′s?

My Great Grand Father’s name was Daniel Jeremiah Burke who left Cork for work in Wales, then Scotland, eventually settling in Belfast.

I appreciate you are not an ancestry service but it would be interesting to know if there are any links to family still in Cork.

Many Thanks
