This is in regard to four Quirke siblings born in Co. Tipperary in the late 1700's and early 1800's. Three emigrated to the US. I would like to contact anyone who knows anything about any of these people. My grgrgf Thomas Quirk b Cashel, Co. Tipp. abt. 1804 came to the Town of Lisbon, Waukesha Co. Wisconsin abt. 1842. He died on 28 Mar 1882. He married Ann or Ellen Ann Hackett b abt. 1802. They and their children Catherine b abt, 1829, Mary b abt. 1830, Michael b 1832, Patrick, James b abt. 1835, Elizabeth abt. 1841, and Thomas b abt.1842 emigrated from Ireland, some separately, between abt. 1842-1850. All came to Waukesha Co. WI.
Thomas' brother Edmund b abt. 1795 left from Fethard Parish, Co. Tipp with his wife Mary Harney and most of his children emigrating with the Power Group settling in Texas in 1834. (Power led a group from Ireland to settle on a land grant.) Children all born Fethard Parish Co. Tipperary Ire.: Catherine Margaret b 07 May 1827 Tullemore, Mary b 08 Dec 1828 Tullemore, Ellen b 18 Apr 1830 Rasalla, Bridget b 05 Jul 1831 Rasalla,, William b 20 Nov 1832 Tullamain, John b1825, Margaret b 30 Jan 1826, Judith b. 20 Nov 1832 in Tullemain,.
Thomas' sister Mary b abt. 1790-99 married David Lonergan b abt. 1784 in Cashel. Co Tipp. They emigrated in the 1830's first settling in northern New York State and then moved to Wisconsin in about 1842-44 settling in Addison, Washington Co., WI. Most of their 13 children were born in Ireland: John b 1820, Mary b 1821, Michael b 1822 Cashel , Patrick b 18 Mar 1828 Cashel, Thomas b1831 Dennis b 1835 Cashel, James Edward born: 13 Nov 1837 Cashel, Ann, Ellen, Margaret and Katherine. I believe that at least one adult daughter Ellen stayed behind. She married a Mr. Archer. Their children Patrick Henry b January 1843 in Ire. and Ellen b November 1835 in Ire. emigrated in 1854. I believe there was also a brother John who emigrated at some time and I believe that their mother Ellen Lonergan Archer eventually emigrated as she was living in Milwaukee with her children Patrick and Ellen per the 1880 census record.
Thomas' brother William stayed in Tipperary and I have very little information about him. He was still living in 1864. His wfe had died by 1858. All of his children were married by 1864. One of Williams' daughters was married to Ned Walls son, Toni, and one of the Wall women was married to William's son. (By 1864 the Walls received a bequest from a Wall family menber who died in America.) William was having financial difficulties.
Love to hear someone also shares these relatives,
Mary
