How do I find records for James Coyne born 12.25.1842 in "Castle Baghe Ireland"?

Question

My Great Great Grandfather came to America before the Civil War, fought in the war and died shortly after the war.  I've found some information on him (not much) and just found an entry in a book that says he was born Dec 25, 1842 in a place called Castle Baghe in Ireland.  I haven't had luck finding what 'Casle Baghe' was or where it was or anything - does anyone have any help?

Answer 1

Answer 2

The are a few towns in Ireland with the name castle in it but my guess it is Castlebar, county Mayo, Ireland. (say bar with an irish brogue ). The catholic parish records for Ireland are available online.

Comments

By far the likeliest and its Irish name is Caisleán an Bharraigh so it's possible the -bar part could get scrambled as -baghe.

Answer 3

There is a Castle Baghe at Tolver near Gulval in Cornwall. It is a round. Rounds date from 400bc and "consist of a small number of round houses enclosed by a substantial bank and ditch. There is debate among archaeologists about why these settlements were enclosed; for protection? To signify status? Whatever the reason rounds were essentially farming settlements whose inhabitants grew crops, kept livestock and practised small scale metalworking". There is a reference to it in Cornish leases of the 1740's and 1770's.
