alexander burial 1890

I checked the Parish Register list of the Representative Church Body Library, Dublin which has C of I records

Clogheen records are held locally, i e in Clogheen; whether they would have the graveyard on the record is unknown of course. The record is on rootsireland but doesn't have the graveyard!

I couldn't find a C of I parish office  or church in Clogheen or Shanbally but there is a Clogheen Hidden Heart of Ireland webpage which might be helpful

Hi Col,  

Thank you for letting me know and for looking.  i have been on roots ireland and geneaologyIe as well just the normal civil records on both.  

I was hoping to find somewhere that the parish burial records would be held.  so far nothng positive.

i did find this though  a person connected to the Shanrahan Historic Graveyard.    

Thomas Costello      Shanranhan, Clogheen, C. Tipperary. I think these are phone contacts

9013 587     and 062 47554068  If I could find his actual address I could write to him.

I shall try to get the website up for the group you also mentioned. 

I will post here anything on prigress.

thankyou so much for helping,

MB,

I suggest you write to the address you have

Hi Col,

It seems a bit  short of a street or house but anything is worth a try.

The Church of Ireland has sent me in a circle again with the sugestion I contact Nat. Archives, which I did only to be told , as I already knew, that they only have BMD and no burial recs. and that those are held at the various parishes.   AH  the church again?!

I will try Mr Costello  and let ou know what he says, if the letter actually finds him and he replies.

Thanks again

Cheers   MotherBear41

MotherBear41,

I have attached a file that includes a copy of the death records of Henry Alexander and his wife Rose Waterman and the birth records of their eight children.

I do not know the burial location but will investigate further .

Thomas J Hussey,

First an apology for not replying to your postings in 2019.

so much has happened here since then. O became involved in a 2yesr DNA hunt for a missing parent to a cousin I never new i had and connecting with direct family from Sweden. and it was very intense tracking in detail many known and new people in detail. 

Then of course Covid hit.  Fortunately I did not catch it but it knocked me sideways. I always could sense the fear and that was not great.  It's now 2022 and things are still only beginning to become somewhat normal.

Now I need to thank you  very much for looking into Henry Alexander and the great information you have found and forwarded to me.

I still have no idea where he was buried and also his wife Rose Alexander nee Waterman.

This couple were originally from Dorset England and they married in 1859. Henry was the Forrester at Shanbally Castle from 1859 until he died in 1890.  so at least 30 years there.  He was responsible for selection of timber to cut, the milling and sales and replanting of the forests. He was in charge of 6 employees on the estate. Obviously he would have reported on activities to the Eatate.

I find it quite odd that I cannot locate his burial place.

I did try Mr Costello but I got totally nowhere with that.

Kind regards, I hope you all fared well with covid.
