Hi, I am working on my family tree. As far as I can establish my great grandfather was Thomas Shanahan from Finnahy (1901 census) then Lower street Borrisoleigh (1911 census). My grandmother Annie Shanahan married Patrick Hewitt and they lived in Toomevara , Borrisoleigh and Ardmayle at various times. Are there any relatives of this branch of the Shanahan clan living in Borrisoleigh today?? If so I would love to hear from you :-) thomascahill08@eircom.net or 087 6134977

I am trying to find anyone who may know my family history. I know that in 1901 and 1911 my great grandmother Hanorah Maher and her son Philip were living in House No 3 Gorteenabarna. I did come to Borrisoleigh once with my father John Maher and we called on a cousin, Marion Maher. I think Hanorah was married to Martin Maher in 1865 and her maiden mane was Green. If anyone has information I would be grateful to hear it. Thank you. martval44@hotmail.com

I was able to briefly visit Borrisoleigh on 10 August 2012 and was able to talk to a few townsfolk in Finn's. As a result of the conversation my wife and I were able to visit the Garangrena area from which my great grandfather emigrated in 1865. What a beautiful area in and around Borrisoleigh. I enjoyed my brief visit and will treasue it always.

3rd. August. Just discovered this site, thanks to Tim Mcloughney. Thinking of all my old school friends at Fantane from 1949 to 1956. Desk mates like Mick Corbett, Mary Treacy, Amy Ryan (r.i.p.) Love to hear from those of who who use this site. A re-union one of the fine days maybe??

Thank you to James and Mary Ryan of Cronovone, family and friends for a warm welcome to Borrisoleigh. My Australian ancestors were farmers in the Eganstown area. Would love to hear from anyone who has this connection as we are writing a history of this area. Rosemary rosemarykennedy@skymesh.com.au

O'NEILL FAMILY CONNECTIONS Congratulations from Queensland, AUSTRALIA on your wonderful website. I was last in Ireland in 1981. At that time I did not know that my great grandmother, Annie O'NEILL, was born in Borrisoleigh, on 1st July 1858. Her parents were John O'NEILL and Norah KELLY.In 1859 John O'Neill's trade was shoemaker. It is probable that the O'Neill family lived in Nenagh Road or Larkin's Lane, Borrisoleigh. The family emigrated from Ireland to Queensland, and in 1881, Annie married Christopher VINCENT. Their daughter 'young Annie' my grandmother, had six children including my mother Kathleen. If anyone has connedtions to the O'NEILL family of Borrisoleigh I would really appreciate making contact with you. My email address is: jtracey@heritagearchaeology.com.au Best wishes and thank you.

My mum was born and raised in Borrisoleigh. She always called it home, even after living in England for over 40 years. Lots of my family still over there, this site has reminded me I must bring my children over to see the place their grandparents and great grandparents were born. I remember mum always talking about the Stapletons, she worked for them when she was younger. My Grandfather was Micheal Vahey.

I was delighted to find your wonderful website. I believe my great, great, great grandparents came from Borrisoleigh and possibly married in the older church in your area in 1833. John Bevans and Margaret Williams of Borris were married in the presence of Tom Walsh and Catherine Fogarty. I believe they had nine children there before they moved to America. Some day I would love to come to Ireland again and visit your town. Cathy Mullen Coyne. Iowa, USA.

We were fortunate enough to have met all the wonderful people of Borrisoleigh in August. We were touring with the Holy Rosary School Choir. We went to Borrisoleigh to visit the birthplace of Bishop Shanahan, the Founder of our school in Edenvale. What a spiritual experience it was. Thank you for all your hospitality, it was an honour and a privilege to visit your beautiful town. Our Holy Rosary sisters in Edenvale were delighted to see photos of the Holy Rosary school blazer in Ireland, their birthplace. They loved the connection our pupils had with their Holy Rosary community as well as all the warm and friendly people of Ireland.

Hi all, From native son Michael Ryan, previously from Mountkinnane, now living in the US since Jan 1961. Love the website and am a faithful reader, as is my sister Teresa - her comments below. In this weeks newsletter, there is mention of Merchandise being available at the Pavilion on Saturday mornings. Is it possible to have a Merchandise Section on here (photos, sizes, etc.) ...as I and probably others may like to do mail orders. Thanks for the wonderful website, it is a great way to stay in touch. p.s. Is that the Mick Corbett that I used to beat-up at Fantane National School :)

Although I have yet to visit Borrisoleigh, my heart is very connected to the town. Although my great grandfather, Thomas Ryan, emigrated in 1864, I feel the tug to return. Three times I have been near to Borrisoleigh and felt the connection, but had not yet known of my roots. I love seeing the website and the lovely Irish faces each and every week. Please continue to publish and maintain the connection. I hope to visit someday soon.

I was greatly privileged to be present for the official opening of the new Parish Community Centre on Saturday March 28. What a wonderful resource for the local community.The tape was cut by our two hurling stars Paddy and Brendan and the Centre was blessed by Fr Liam. We had a great speech of a very high quality from Kathleen Kennedy chair of the committee.We were entertained by local talent with music, song and dance. The food and drink was excellent. It was lovely to catch up on a few "old" friends. Many thanks for a lovely night. Borris is up there with the best.Mile buiochas.

The Faces and Places section is great! I especially enjoyed the pictures of various members of the Leahy family, not sure, what any relationship to me might be, but I am sure there is some connection. I would be interested in corresponding with anyone who might be knowledgeable about the family, especially in the 1800’s, e-mail at j_leahy01@nc.rr.com .

My Great Grandfather and Great great Grandather on the other side as well (sorry it was colonial Queensland remember) was born in Borrisleigh on 18/07/1837 to Patrck and Brigid Miller nee Foley. He emigrated to Australia to his sister about 1856. He followed the gold trail two thousand kilometers to far North Queensland after 2 wives and 13 children. He facinates me. When he finally settled in his later years his farm was named Knocknaghow. I cannot but help wonder if he wasn't a Fenian... Regards to you all...Trish

Was in your fair town 18 months ago chasing down family ancestory. Loved every moment of the day we were there. Is there not one person with the surname KANE left in the area? My great grandfather emigrated to Australia in the 1860's--He was William Kane, born 1844 approx, son of Michael and Catherine Kane. My email is rekane@bigpond.com

Found your terrific website several months ago. Want to echo the many comments - that it is a great place to stay current with everything back home. Thanks! so very much to everyone involved for covering so many activities. Originally from Mountkinane, I have been living here in the US since 1961. Yes, I know that that is a long time ago; but, the funny thing is that I still think "Borrisoleigh" when I think of Home. If anyone remembers me, drop a note to mjryan@snet.net as I would love to hear from you. Merry Christmas to all and Thanks! again.

Hello from Brisbane, Australia. My wife and I visited fleetingly about 15 years ago and hope to visit Borrisoleigh again in early July 2009. She is a descendant of Jeremiah Ryan (born c1842, who emigrated to Australia 1864), who we believe was a son of Jeremiah Ryan and his wife Johanna (nee Cantwell) of Knockanure c1832. Any info would be appreciated to et.mob@bigpond.com - Jeremiah settled outside Warwick, Queensland, Australia and there are may descendants here in Oz now.

My grandfather, John McCarthy married Jane Kennedy, the daughter of James Kennedy of Glenarisk, Borrisoleigh on 7 July 1910. Just wondering if there was any Kennedy connections still in the area? My email address is davidmccarthy123@btinternet.com

Congrat`s on your web site, great looking back at your memories of the past & the present day generation. As a frequent visitor to Borris in the 60`s 70`s & 80`s, with my wife and kids you have re-kindled so many great memories for me of my visits to Ireland. My wife Dill was raised in Borris, her maiden name was Hynes, sister of Kathleen, Seamus and Marie. Being my first visit to your web site I have so much to say about your town and hope to contribute much more of my feelings to the people of Borris in the near future.Your website just made my day. Good Luck & God Bless. Pat McQuillan CANADA.

Congrats to everyone who work so hard in making your website a wonderful success, you are all doing an amazing job. I immigrated to Canada in 1969, got married, we have 2 wonderful children and 3 beautiful grandchildren-spoken like a true Grandma. Fred and I go home a lot, I have always loved going into Borrisoleigh-it sure has changed over the years-but now I can check it out every week and that's wonderful, I don't know a lot of the faces anymore but it takes me back home,Borris and Ireland are not so far away anymore. Keep up the good work for this grateful expat

What a fantastic website, connecting those of us away with you at home. Weekly, I look forward to updates. You are such a vibrant Parish with so many events and activities for young, seniors and in-betweens and all seems to be done with such great fun. You are blessed by so many giving their services on a voluntary basis, all of which enriches the quality of your community and your caring for each other. Thank you.

What a great site - i have stumbled upon this by accident just through "googling" the name Borrisoleigh as my sister and I are researching family in Ireland. My paternal grandmother was Bridget Gleeson, sister to Nora Delaney and Julia Stapleton. How great to see photos of "long-lost" relatives. If you would like to get in touch please email me at gaspode@homecall.co.uk

Well done – great site for the town. My Great Grandfather (John Fogarty) left Borris sometime in the 1870s – for the delights of Belfast and Ballycastle, Co Antrim. My Dad left for England! Visited Borris once (and Castle Fogarty) around 20 years ago. Planning to make another flying visit next week to do a bit more family history research. Best wishes.
