I am trying to find my great great grandfather's [Thomas Mulcahy] parents. As far as I know Thomas was born around 1798 possibly at Pallasgreen Tipperary and died somewhere between 1845 to 1855 somewhere in Ireland. He was married to Ellen/Ellena Rail or Real in 1831 also at Pallasgreen. Recently I found some information about Thomas's parents but I'd like to know it what I've got is correct.

I've been informed that Thomas's father may have been JOHN MULCAHY born around 1774 and his mother may have been ELLEN CARROLL born around 1778. I don't have any information regarding their deaths. It would be great if someone can help me out as I am currently working on my family tree.

    Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!

    The RC records for the parish of Pallasgreen and Templebredin start in 1811  http://registers.nli.ie/parishes/0279  so his baptismal record would not be available. I did locate the marriage record. See below. looks like he lived in Knockaneroe townland in Templebeg civil parish.

    Hi Tim,

    I'm new to this site and just saw your message as well as one in 2015. Like you, I'm a descendant of Thomas and Ellena Mulcahy. My close relatives have always believed that there were no records of the parents of Thomas Mulcahy nor of any record as to where he is buried. Of course we know his widow Ellena migrated to Australia with her children and so the Australian family began. I would be interested to know where your information re Thomas's parents comes from and secondly if you have any info on where Thomas was buried in 1845.

    Cheers,

    Stephen Mulcahy

  • Stephen,

    Thanks for using this site. First of all I would like to work out which Stephen you are on the Mulcahy Family Tree. I been working on my family tree for many years after taking over from one of my uncles who set it up many years ago.

    From my records I have 3 Stephen's on my list. The first Stephen was born to Kevin and Josephine in 1958 and is one of 5 children. His father came from Cobram The second is Stephen Anthony born to Kevin and Fay in 1960 and is one of 5 children, His father was born in Dubbo. The last one is Stephen James born to David and Rosalie in 1992 and is one of 4 children. His father was born in Tatura. As far as my records go I think this is all I have for Stephen Mulcahy so where to you fit. I would greatly appreciate if you could help me out.

    If you'd like here is my private email should you wish to contact me directly: timmari45@gmail.com

    As you can imagine I have over the years gathered alot of information including photos and paperwork. At present I'm going through Bith, Deaths and Marriage from many states especially Victoria and NSW to help justify my information.

    Looking forward if you can get back to me here in Canberra.

    Cheers,
