Patrick Haggart was my 4x great grandfather. I don't know where or when he was born or died. He was married to a Mary and they had at least three children, two of whom (at least) emigrated: son Patrick b. 1835 to the United States via England and daugher Catherine (my ancestor b. 1833) to England. another daugher Mary appears to have married Michael Fallon in 1848 which makes her the oldest of the three.
Patrick was recorded in 1846 as a weaver in poor circumstances applying for poor relief, in Cloonlee townland.
Hi Patrick
Cloonlee is a townland in Ballinlough, Co. Roscommon as is Kiltullagh, so not sure of the connection between the two locations albeit they are very close to each other?
My Geraghty family were from Gorteenacammdil which is a townland in the parish of Kitullagh and village of Cloonfad Co. Roscommon.
Hello Nick
Thank you for your comment. I have been able to find very little about Patrick and I'm afraid my knowledge if Irish geography is limited to say the least.
Apart from the document where he is applying for relief, I have him in Griffiths Valuation thus:
County ROSCOMMON
Barony CASTLEREAGH
Union CASTLEREA
Parish KILTULLAGH
Townland CLOONLEE
Place Name CLOONLEE
Place Type TOWNLAND
I was going on this information. I can't add more because I don't know how the plae names interact.
Thanks for your interest
