My Grandmother, Alice Stack, was born in Ballygrace house in the townland of that name. Her parents were Denis Stack (from Bregoge) & Margaret Greene. They were passed down the farm from her father James Barry Greene Born approx 1851.
James was married to Mary Philomena Reardon (or Riordan) on 28 Apr 1877 in Knockainey, Co.Limerick, Their children were:
Maria b.1878 & married Edward Murphy
Margaret b.1879 & Married Denis Stack (My Great Grandparents) d.1950 High Park, Limerick
Michael James b.1880
Deborah Anne b.1883 d.1954 High Park, Limerick
Joseph Phil b.1887 & married Hanna Murphy
James b. 1891.
I would appriciate any information the ancestors of James Barry Greene and any of the other listed people.
Thanks

Hi Mark,
I have a John Stack (born 1872 in Bregogue) in my tree who married Mary O'Brien. I assume there is a relationship to Dennis Stack. Possiably brothers?
Thanks

Thanks John,
Yes I reckon they were Brothers. Their Parents were, I think, Denis Stack d.1909 & Deborah Mackessy b.1829 d.1911. in Bregogue, Buttevant.
Denis Stacks d1909 parentes were Maurice Stack & Catherine Sheehan
Deborah McKasseys parents John McKessey & Mary Keeffe I think
