Hello. I'm looking for info on my great grandparents and my grandmother's family. I'm almost sure this is the right parish but apologies if I'm wrong. My great grandfather's name was Michael and I'm not sure of my great grandmother's name. Their children were as follows. Agnes, my grandmother, born 12/01/1901, and siblings were Jack, Phillip, Michael, James and little Patrick who died of influenza at 8yo. Any info would be very welcome. Thank you.
Anna Carr.

  • Hello Anna,

    I found the following birth/baptisms at rootsireland for children of John Henneberry and Ellen Fitzpatrick in Ballyglasson, Piltown, Co. Kilkenny.  I don't know if this is your family, but it is interesting that the names match those of some of your grandmother's siblings:

    HenneberryPhilip1886Co. Kilkenny
    Church BaptismHenneberyPhilip1886Co. Kilkenny
    Church BaptismHenneberyMichael1887Co. Kilkenny
    Church BaptismHenneberryJohn1889Co. Kilkenny
    Civil BirthHenneberryJohn1889Co. Kilkenny
    Church BaptismHeneberryJames1890Co. Kilkenny
    Church BaptismHenneberryMichael1893Co. Kilkenny
    Civil BirthHenneberryMichael1893Co. Kilkenny
    Church BaptismHenneberryWilliam1893Co. Kilkenny
    Civil BirthHenneberryWilliam1893Co. Kilkenny(Wm. and Michael were twins)

    You should be able to find these birth records at irishgenealogy.ie.

    Like Patricia, I'm not sure this is the correct record since the father is Michael.

  • Hi Roger can you find any other info on the rest of the family, I think Kate Hickey died about 15 years after my gran was born and she never spoke about the family. Anything you can find would be brilliant.
    Thanks

    I found a few records but did not find a death record for Kate. I also could not find the family in the 1911 census. James was born in Dublin later in 1911 so presumably they were in Dublin on March 31 when the census was taken. Part of the problem is the different spellings for Henebery.

  • That's brilliant Roger. Thanks so much. They did move around a bit unfortunately, following work I suppose but our spelling was definitely Henneberry. This means so much to me. Thank you
