Reddam or Redham in Sligo

Reddam

Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!

The townland spelling is Barnasrahy in Killaspugbrone civil parish which is just to the west of Sligo Town.

I looked at the 1858 head of household listing for Killaspugbrone civil parish and there was a Patrick Redam listed in Slieveroe townland. http://www.failteromhat.com/griffiths/sligo/killaspugbrone.htm  Not sure how Patrick is connected to the two Williams.

www.askaboutireland.ie has a site on the Griffiths Valuation whre you can get more info on the land he was leasing. Tracking ownership from then into the 1900s requires a visit to the Valaution Office in Dublin. Eventually, the information will be placed online. Unable to find a death record for him or Catherine. Also no records for Margaret

I looked at the 1882 marriage record and William was living in the Infirmary which was part of the Sligo workhouse.

No one was living in Barnasrahy in the 1901 census.

thanks Roger.  I should know better for spelling the townland.

I too saw Patrick and have no idea how related.  Found no death or cemetary records other then a listing for Maria Reddam but it does not state any family to her.  If I ordered the death record what information is listed in it?

I was hoping to track by rent records who and where.  No census then.

The earliest I have is william (Sr. but not sure if Sr. Jr. was used then?) Redham or Reddam was married to Maria Giblin (no dates given just listed as parents when William Jr was married)) and their son, William (again Jr. but not sure if Sr./Jr. was used then) Redham or Reddam and by roots ireland through baptism records also a daughter, Margaret who disappears.  Was hoping someone could do a roots ireland lookup for further info as they had records no one else has.  William Jr.? ws married to Catherine Darby, a nurse, but without infirmary records I cannot tell if she worked there.  Anybody know how early roots ireland records go to for Calry?

Yes i had him in 1882 at the infirmary (William had club foot).  Are there records for the infirmary somewhere?

Wish I could go but am disabled.

Did not know none living there in 1901.  Noy unusual i understand as many renters were driven out to open the land to pasture.  For that particular townland I do not know.

Reddam:

The death record would show the date, location, cause of death, marital status,name of informant and possibly relationship of informant to deceased. Eventually the record will be online for free.

I did search Roots yesterday and they have transcriptions for the baptismal records for William and Margaret in Sligo parish.

As far as I can tell, people who lived in Calry civil parish would have RC records starting around 1858 and would be considered part of Sligo parish now.

Not aware of records for the infirmary but you may want to e-mail the library in Sligo town.

I can do lookups for you if you need assistance.

Roger

thank-you Roger.

I really appreciate your time and advise.

reddam or redham in sligo is tricky.  Am I missing something or a record I should check in 1820-40?  At least with the marriage i can prove sligo.  I had to look for the latin of william for one record.  Example:  Gulielmus, Guglielmus, Wilhelmus, Willelmus are just somr variations of the latin.

Can youanother check for Peter William costello /costeloe/costellow born 1804, married 1820 to Ellen Kennedy in Kilkenny.  The first person who did it and found them could not read the original inscription.  It was such a tease to know that they exist but no information.

thanks,

ron R

Ron:

I searched for that 1820 record with no success. Here is the response I sent you on that issue. I didi find two other Kennedy/Costello marriages. https://www.irelandxo.com/ireland/sligo/calry/message-board/costello-ke…

Roger

thanks for looking.

new ann costello to andy kennedy- unknown

john costello to ellen kennedy- on pei (John, Peter william and Pierce Costello) are thought to be brothers.  It would be weird for a brother to marry another ones' wife unless the husband died.

ron R

I am very excited to find this site!  The Patrick Reddam you mention (Redam in Griffith's Valuation) is my great-great-grandfather.  I believe the William Reddam, Jr., you describe could be Patrick's brother.  I have found records of who I believe to be 2 other sibings, Timothy and Catherine, who married a man named Owen Cox.  They all emigrated to Boston, MA.  On Catherine's MA death record, her parents names are shown as William and Mary Gibbons Reddam.  On Patrick's MA death record, his parents are shown as William and Mary (no birth surname listed), both born Ireland.  On William the younger's records, his mother's birth name is shown as Giblin, but I suspect this could be the same mother.

I can upload any of these recoreds if anyone would like to see them.  I am new to genealogy research.  I found most of these records using FamilySearch.org.

Marilyn

Dear Marilyn,

I am excited by your reply.  When i started this geanology I mailed a letter to all the reddams in the world I could find including boston, NY, Texas Reddam's who together believed they are distantly related as thier ancesters came from sligo, IRE.   I am interested in what you found.  The Michigan and California Reddam's are directly related to the William Reddam who left Sligo for (Sandwich) Windsor, Ontario, Canada.  I am interested in your finds and am willing to share what I have.

I can be reached directly at rr22eddam@yahoo.ca

I am the keeper of the Reddam tree here.

Hi Roger,

as per your message and my latest Reddam/Redham researcher,.

Could you check Roots Ireland for Bridget Cunningham b. 1825 (daughter of Thomas and Bridget Quinn Cunningham).

Bridget was married to Patrick Reddam/Redham, date unknown.

THANKS IN ADVANCE,

RON REDDAM JR.

In IrishGenealogy.ie, there is a summary record, no image available, of a Mary Reddam who died in Sligo in 1874 at age 80.  Could this lady be the mother of Patrick, Timothy, Catherine and William?

Hi Marilyn,

I thought so too and it is why i asked what do you get if ordered.

reply above is from Roger;

The death record would show the date, location, cause of death, marital status,name of informant and possibly relationship of informant to deceased. Eventually the record will be online for free.

So I will wait for it to be free.
