Biography

Michael Hart was born about 1809 in Ireland and probably in or near Drisheen, Creagh Civil Parish, Skibbereen, County Cork, Ireland, the son of Timothy Harte who had passed away by 1869 and his wife who might be Mary Unknown. Michael named his first two children Mary and Timothy.

Michael Hart was the first husband of Catherine Burke Harte Connelly. They married by 1869, and had children:

  1. Mary Hart, baptized on July 4, 1869, who was born in Drisheen, Creagh Civil Parish, Skibbereen, County Cork, Ireland
  2. Timothy Hart baptized on August 28, 1870 who was born in Drisheen, Creagh Civil Parish, Skibbereen, Ireland
  3. Ellen Hart, born August 25, 1872 in Drisheen, Creagh Civil Parish, Skibbereen, County Cork, Ireland.
  4. Catherine Hart baptized on February 7, 1875 who was born in Drisheen, Creagh Civil Parish, Skibbereen, Ireland
  5. John Hart baptized on June 8, 1877 who was born in Drisheen, Creagh Civil Parish, Skibbereen, Ireland

Michael Hart passed away on March 28, 1879 due to Bronchitis. Catherine Harte was present at death, likely his wife Catherine Burke Harte instead of his four year old daughter Catherine Harte.

Possible Sources

The following headstone in the West Cork Graveyard Database includes some Harte family members, but they are from younger generations, and may or may not be directly related - http://www.graveyards.skibbheritage.com/Gravestone.aspx?GravestoneID=182. The Michael Harte listed on the stone died in 1992 at the age of 76, so we think he was born about 1916, making him over 100 years younger than Michael Harte profiled above.
