Notes

General:

240124:

A few days ago I received by mail a copy of the book "Kilcomin Graveyard County Offaly" by Stephen Callaghan, purchased from the Offaly County Council Heritage OIffice following a lead from Tommy Quinlisk.

Amongst the photographs and transcripts of gravestones of interest I found one that included the names of siblings Denis, Edward and Nora Quinlisk, along with "Eileen Cleary" wife of Patrick Cleary. The stone was erected in special honour of Daniel Quinlisk by his nephew only identified on the stone as "Patrick" with no surname given but presumably Quinlisk.

I think I have identified the first four (including "Eileen") as the children of Patrick Quinlisk born at Behamore around 1840. He had four children: Edward by his first wife Judith Gaynor; and then Daniel, Nora and "Nannie" or Annie by his second wife, Margaret Flannery. They would have all been of an age to match the dates on this stone.

But the "Eileen" has me thrown off. There was clearly no child of this family by this name. And the stone gives no inkling of why she is mentioned there along with her husband. I surmise that one of the four children of Patrick married (probably Nannie or Annie) and that this was her daughter. But that remains to be proved.

On balance, however, I am positive that I have identified the correct family because they were residents of Mucklone West on the 1901 and 1911 Censuses. Why their parents are not remembered on this memorial stone is not known.

Here is the transcript of this stone by Stephen Callaghan:

Marriage Events

• Minister/Priest: Patrick Kennedy, C.C., 14 Jun 1882, Cloughjordan, Tipperary, Munster, Ireland.

• Witnesses: William Cullen (Possibly Should Be Collins) And Honora Neary, 14 Jun 1882, Cloughjordan, Tipperary, Munster, Ireland. Marriage Notes

June 27, 2007: The name of the witness William Cullen may be spelled wrong. It couldbe Collins as her sister married a Thomas Collins and Thomas's brother, James, along with the same Honora(h) Neary were witnesses at that wedding. I suspect that William "Cullen" is actually the brother of Thomas and James Collins.
