My Ryans from Pallasgreen lived at Kilduff castle, Brackyle, Ballyluddy, Garrannebeg, Clashbane, and other nearby townlands. A stone in the Old Pallas graveyard may be of my Ryans:
Erected by Jeremiah Ryan, Ballyluddy
In memory of his father Matthew Ryan
Son of Darby Ryan & Mary Kelly
Born 5th April 1806
Died 21 Jan 1896
Of his mother
Brisgid Raleigh
Daughter of Thomas Raleigh & Julia O'Shea
Born Feb 1811
Died 27 Mar 1884
Other Ryans & family are listed....does anyone know descendants of this family? The stone has insciptions on all sides, with the latest death being Michael Ryan, died 14 June 1962.
Any help appreciated!

Nancy,
I should not be surprised that our paths have crossed once again. I am still trying to research Mathew Ryan, died in 1855 per my family notes. His son, Hugh, emigrated to Evansville, IN (in 1848) if I recall. I just joined this site. I will come back and add additional information.
