Hello Gina,

Once again it is time for our annual Ireland Project check-in.

1. Would you like to continue as a member of the project? 2. Do you have any suggestions for project priorities in the next year? 3. Do you have any interest in taking a more active role in the project and, if so, what might you be interested in doing?

A response to the check-in is one of the project’s few requirements for all members. Please either post a reply below or send me a private message on WikiTree. If we don’t hear from you, we’ll assume your interests have changed and you no longer have time to participate in the project.

Thank you for all of your contributions to WikiTree and to the Ireland Project.

Gach beannacht,

Jen, Ireland Project co-leader

Hi, Jen.

1. Yes, I'd like to remain as a member of the project.

2. I have no suggestions for project priorities for next year, but it would be nice to know what sort of response you get to this and other questions from the broader project membership. Last year, for example, there was a question about minimum contribution requirements, but there did not seem to be any follow-up on that.

3. I'm pretty fully occupied at the moment, unfortunately, and unable to take on a more active role.

Cheers, Gina.

Hi Gina! You help on my search for Patrick Doyle was so incredibly helpful! Can I ask your opinion on the following that I've found in direct relation to your comment? I've redirected to search for a Patrick (Pat/Patt) Doyle son of Michael Doyle and Mary (you found a maiden name of Carroll) b Mar 14 1821 in County Kildare or surrounding area (Patrick's headstone says b Mar 14 1821 in Naas but I'm not relying on this as exactly accurate anymore). I've come up with only 3 Patricks, son of Michael Doyle and Mary, in the Catholic Parish Registers within 150km of Naas for the entire year 1821 and would love your take on this?

1. This one seems to be the best bet out of the 3 as it is in the same Diocese as the marriage you found for me for Michael Doyle and Mary Carroll which is Kildare and Leighlin and Rathangan isn't that far from Naas from what I can see. Birth date is different (not a big deal) and his mother's last name is different (this is throwing me off). It looks like Fenal to me? Possibly Ferral? Could this be a misprint of Carroll? https://www.ancestry.com/sharing/11856058?mark=7b22746f6b656e223a22777875364d4243424d79577672534651716a79724142523365544d3658517072324934796546747338346f3d222c22746f6b656e5f76657273696f6e223a225632227d

- Look at the day next to Patrick's baptism and you'll see a Pete baptized and witnessed by a Patrick Doyle. Maybe a brother/cousin of Michael?**

2. Pat son of Michael and Mary but baptized in Dublin City? Birth date wrong, parents correct, location roughly 32km from Naas. Witnessed by a possibly relative of Michael (Thomas Doyle). Is this a stretch to think they would travel to Dublin from the country just for a baptism? https://www.ancestry.com/sharing/11856258?mark=7b22746f6b656e223a22523334384f4d784c4c5747442b78482b665a734557646d586233614270367765377a6d4c4c71654d6566513d222c22746f6b656e5f76657273696f6e223a225632227d

3. This one is the long shot but Patt Doyle born to Mich'l and what looks like it is either Marg't or possibly Mary? Dates are closer to his birth date on record but this is really west from where they were married. Or is this not out of the ordinary to travel for baptism? https://www.ancestry.com/sharing/11856508?mark=7b22746f6b656e223a22674c636f2f6257645a6a526c54574a39655059756e6b54646e342b6b72684e794d2b715341612f394b32673d222c22746f6b656e5f76657273696f6e223a225632227d

Thank you in advance for your help!!!!

Hi, Stephanie.

There's a bit going on here, isn't there?

1 - Baptism in Rathangan : I'd be inclined to think that Patrick Doyle (baptised 1821 in Rathangan, son of Michael Doyle and Mary "Ferral") is probably the son of Michael Doyle and Mary Carroll, and that some clerical error has led to Mary's last name being recorded incorrectly. Michael and Mary were married in 1817, and the Rathangan registers record at least five baptisms for children of Michael Doyle and Mary Carroll from 1824-1835 (Ann, Michael, Thomas, Mary, Eliza). It would be surprising if they hadn't had any children between 1817 and 1824, and Patrick b.1821 fills the gap nicely. There is another couple named Michael (Doyle) and Mary having children in Kildare around the same time, but her last name was Behan, and they were in Rahilla, and they seem to be a different family.

The question is whether this is your Patrick. There were evidently a number of different Doyle families in the area at the time, and so you probably need to keep an open mind.

2 - Baptism in Dublin : Your Patrick's naturalisation papers do give that he was born in Dublin. It's possible that he was born in Dublin but met and married Martha in Naas, since weddings were almost always in the bride's home parish and not the groom's. But you'd have to think about how such a meeting might have come about. It's also possible that the clerk in Massachusetts simply recorded Patrick as having come from Dublin because he knew Patrick was Irish and he didn't enquire any further. I've seen that sort of thing happen before also.

3 - Baptism in Clonfert : I'm not sure I'd pay a lot of attention to this record. That is a long way west, and no, it wouldn't be common to travel such a long distance to have a child baptised.

I'd probably be keeping the Rathangan family in mind, but looking around for more compelling evidence or connections. For example :

- I'd be curious to know what connection Patrick and Martha had to the Ennis couple who witnessed their marriage. Were they siblings or cousins to Patrick or Martha?

- If Patrick and Martha followed traditional naming patterns then Patrick's parents might have been Michael (or Edward) and Julia (or Martha). If you can pin down Martha's family in Kildare, then this might give clues to who Patrick's people were.

- It's possible that Patrick and Martha emigrated with relatives from Ireland, or to relatives who were already in the US, and so I'd be looking at passenger lists, and other sources in Massachusetts, for any other individuals who might be connected to the Doyle, Lenahan or Ennis families.

I hope that helps. I'll have a hunt about, and will forward anything else which might be of interest :)

Cheers, Gina.

Huge favor-could you share what you located under your point #1 above for the birth/baptism of Michael Doyle, son of Mich'l Doyle and Mary Carroll in the Rathangan register between 1824-1835? I have looked high and low and can't locate this one in that register and would appreciate it very much! (and btw I found the missing link that connects this Patrick, son of Mary and Michael, to the siblings...but still not sure this is my Patrick)

Ok as l me know where you information on Myers Huddleston is coming from. Myers is my 3rd great- grandfather and the information you have posted changing the profile is incorrect.

posted Sep 10, 2023 by Dakotah Lynn Woller

Gina Meyers

Dakotah, all I did was change his parents to be consistent with the information in the Findagrave source which you provided. When you created the profile you had Myers as the son of his wife's grandparents, meaning that he married his niece, and I thought perhaps that might have been an error. I'm sorry if the error was mine.

Yes it really gets confusing as some of the relations married cousins, have me a headache figuring it all out! Lol

Hi Gina,

It is once again time for our annual Ireland Project check-in. Please respond within the next three weeks to let us know:

If you would like to continue as an Ireland Project member. If your answer is yes, please tell us if you are happy with your current team, or if you would prefer to join a different one. If you are currently participating in more than one team we would appreciate you ranking them in their order of importance to you, from highest priority to lowest. This information will be helpful as we consider possible future changes to our team structure.
In the past, the project has had a very minimal membership requirement (one contribution per year) for badged members to meet. Do you believe this is adequate, or should this requirement be increased? What do you believe would be a reasonable commitment to expect from all project members?
How active have you been in the Ireland Project over the past year? Please choose one of the following options: a) I normally spend 1-5 hours per month helping achieve my team’s goals. b) I normally spend 6-10 hours per month helping achieve my team’s goals. c) I spend over 10 hours per month helping achieve my team’s goals. d) I am not able to contribute every month but have spent approximately ________ hours during the past year improving Irish profiles.
Please provide feedback on any things you’d like to see the project do more of in the future.

You can respond to this message by posting a reply below or sending me a private message on WikiTree. If we don’t hear from you within the next three weeks we’ll assume your interests have changed or you no longer are able to participate in the Ireland Project at this time, and your badge will be removed. If your circumstances change later you will be welcome to reapply for membership.

Many thanks for all that so many of you have contributed to the project in the past year, and very special thanks to those who answered the project’s call and gave generously of their time to be part of Team Seanchaithe during the most recent connect-a-thon. We are looking forward to hearing from you.

Hi, Jen.

1. I would like to continue as an Ireland Project member. I am on the Topics team, and am happy to stay here.

2. One contribution per year seems somewhat inadequate to demonstrate engagement with the project. However, I don't believe the contribution count is a reliable indicator of anything very much, since deleting a blank line (formatting) and development of a fully-sourced biography (improvement) both count as a single contribution. Also, monitoring the profiles to which a member contributes and the project(s) to which those profiles belong seems an unreasonable administrative burden. If a quantifiable commitment is required, it would need to be measured some other way.

3. My contribution to the project is very variable, but probably averages out at 1-2 hrs per week. For consistency, say (a) 1-5 hrs per month?

4. No other feedback at this time.

Cheers, Gina.

My guess is that came from searching My family heritage or ancestry.com. I will check the original but I had little knowledge about sources when that was done, Thanks for checking.

Hi Gina,

It’s time for our annual Ireland Project check-in! Please respond within the next two weeks to let me know:

If you are happy with the team you’re on or if you’d like to make a change. It is now required that all members with an Ireland project badge work on at least one of the project’s team(s), so if you’ve not yet signed up please do so in your reply to this check-in.

What you think the project is doing well, and what (if any) changes you would like to see us make? Are there any teams you would like to become more active in?

Would you be interested in helping to work on an Ireland Project newsletter?

Please give us some feedback on the use of google group and discord. Do you use one or both of these? If you don’t use either of them, what is the best way for us to ensure you receive project communications? If you would like to join us on either one, just let us know in your response and we will get you signed up.

Please respond to this message by posting a reply below or sending me a private message on WikiTree. If we don’t hear from you within two weeks, we will assume you are no longer interested in participating in the Ireland Project, and your badge will be removed. If you wish to reapply for membership later, we will be happy to have you back. Many thanks, and I look forward to hearing from you!

Sincerely,

Jen Hutton, on behalf of the Ireland Project

Hi, Jen.

I'm on the Topics Team - specifically with Irish Quakers and Irish Palatines - and am happy to stay there for going on with. I enjoy sourcing also, but I know I can dabble without being part of that team.

I don't have any comments about any changes needed.

I like the idea of an Ireland Project newsletter, but probably do not have the time at the moment to contribute.

I use discord, and am fine with that.

Cheers, Gina.
