I'm searching for ancestors for my Irish GrandMother, Elizabeth Joyce.  The only information I have is that she was born in Peterswell, County Cork July 3, 1886 and that her Mother was Mary Linnear and her father John Joyce.

I'll be visiting Ireland this August and it's exciting to know that I'll be in my Nanny's Ireland!

Thanks,

  • Hi Winn,

    I'd like to wish you well in your upcoming trip to Ireland, and I hope you can find more of the information you are searching for in connection with your grandmother. Unfortunately, there is no Peterswell near Knockainey - I believe this must have been mistaken information. The only Peterswell I can see evidence for is the one in County Galway near the town of Gort.

    The full name of Knockainey parish is Knockainey & Patrickswell - perhaps this is the source of the confusion. Anyway I hope you find what you are looking for soon :)

    Best wishes,

    Karl Sachartschuk

  • Hi Karl,

    Thanks for your reply and I do appreciate the information you have shared.

    Someone shared this with me or else I misread someone's instructions but I did think it unusual since I had been searchin in the area of County Galway.

    Keep well,

    Winn
