Hello Ireland XO,

   Thank you very much for your recent e-mail and congratulations on the re-launch of your web-site. My great great grandfather Patrick Hogan’s grave is at New Church and his farm was in Rusheen.

I have joined the Knockainey Parish and wanted to make certain I was in the right place. Thank you very much in advance for your time and consideration.

With kind regards,

Michael J Hogan

  • Hi Michael

    There are a couple of townlands called Rusheen. Was Patrick's farm in Limerick?

    Best wishes

  • Hello Clare,

       Thank you very much for your note and yes Patrick was from Limerick. The farm was in the Rusheen area of Patrickswell at Lough Gur. Attached please find a link to his gravesite at New Church and a list of the Towns people from Griffins Valuation of 1851. The list and a map of the area are at the end of the web-page. His wife was Mary Leo, I believe her father and brothers names are also listed.

    With kind regards,

    Michael

  • Michael - in relation to your original message, you are in the right place!

    Old headstones are so interesting and revealing, sometimes the last remaining record of a family, which is sad. 

    Happy New Year
