Pack in Kilcormac?

Peggy,

it's a pretty rare name but there are some others listed in other counties:

• there are 16 Pack's listed in the Land Surverys: Tithe Applotment Books (1823-38) here - a number called Barther or Barthw (maybe short for Bartholomew?) but none in Co. Offaly or King's County.
• And there are also some in the later Griffith's Valuation (1848-64) here.
• See also pack households in mid-19th century Ireland

Thanks, Delores & Jack.

    My Packs (or those known to be mine) mostly start out in Kilkenny. A number of them were C of I clergymen.

    There is a Pack on Griffiths --- in Portumna, Galway --- who probably isn't getting counted. My gr-gr-grandfather's entry was mistranscribed as "Bartholomew Park."

     I'm really puzzled about Ellen Braddell Pack in 1879. I have an Ellen Braddell (alias McCheane) Pack who married  Samuel Tench in 1855. Surely there can't have been 2 Ellen Braddell Packs?

    I ordered this record because I knew of no Bartholomew (I'm also guessing that that is the name) Pack in Ireland in 1884. I know of only 3 by that name --- my G-GF, GG-GF, and GGG-GF. Assuming that the transcription is correct, I wonder if the father might be a British soldier stationed in Ireland? (Lots of Packs in England.)  Were there troops in that vicinity in 1884?

   Btw, shouldn't the birth record show up in the civil registrations?
