Looking for Thompson ancestors at Castleisland

Hi,

Perhaps you might give some more info?  About what year was Thomas born? His wife?  Names of their children, in order if possible.

Thanks.

Sheila,

If you use Amazon, there are many records for this family and many family trees.

These include death certificates for Thomas and Bridget.

Thomas's parents were said to be John and Johanna.

Bridget's were said to be Patrick and Teresa.

These names were provided by third parties so may not be reliable.

Sheila:

I think Patricia meant Ancestry rather than Amazon.

Roger McDonnell

Ha ha. Thank you, Roger!

I am thrilled that some have replied. Thank you so much. I have talked with my brother Joe Dailey who uses Ancestry and he could tell me this so far. I have agreed with my brother to pay for the out-of-country research feature of Ancestry. He will be able to learn a great deal more. In the meantime, could anyone help me with this much? I believe they were both from Castleisland, Co. Kerry.

Great great parents on my father's side.

Thomas Thompson 
Dec 1835-March 15, 1899

Bridget nee Barlum Thompson
1841-July 2, 1897
 

Sheila:

I forwarded your message to one of our volunteers from the Castleisland area. If you have not heard back in a couple weeks, please let us know and we will try to further assist you.

Roger

Thank you, Roger!

Not sure if this will be helpful but I was there some years ago and the priest told me they let the FamilySearch people photo all their records.  You might check FamilySearch to see what they might have. I think Ancestry bought the rights to their records in the meantime but seems like FamilySearch still has the records.  Good luck.

Also Kerry has burials online.   http://www.kerrylaburials.ie/en/Index.aspx

Thank Anne. I will follow up on this. Much appreciated.
