Fogarty Family History Pages

Castle Fogarty, near Thurles  in Co Tipperary

This is more about my genealogical search into my Irish family roots - so the links relate to that topic.

My Home Page on Family Tree Maker - this is a page I set-up some time ago hoping some else might be able to tell me more about my Great Grandfather, John Fogarty who died in Belfast in 1894.  To date it sadly hasn't generated much interest - let alone any useful information about the origins of John.  Family gossip has it that he was born in Borrisoleigh in Co Tipperary and had two brothers, James and Denis.

My Descendants Tree - this tree shows the descendants of Edmund Fogarty, who appears to be the father of my Great Grandfather, John Fogarty.  I say "appears" since I have not established beyond doubt that John was his son.  The significant facts being that Edmund had three sons whose names match what is known about John and his brothers.  The baptism dates also appears to be around the right time, and Edmund family was born in Borrisoleigh, Co Tipperary.

Report on the Fogartys of Antrim - at least what I and others have unearthed.  This was largely the work of the Ulster Historical Foundation together with some input from the Tipperary North Family History Foundation, the Tipperary Heritage Unit and my own efforts trawling the Internet and obtaining documents from sources in Co Antrim.  Special thanks go the Parish Priest in Ballycastle, the General Register Office in Belfast and the research library at the Church of the Latter-day Saints in Belfast.

Fogarty Photos - some photos of my ancestors including Great Grandfather, John and his brother James.

General Fogarty Information - this is just some general stuff about the Fogarty name, and famous Fogartys that first appeared on the now defunct Fogarty Family History site created by Jeff and Bridget Fogarty.  The content and links have updated.

Fogarty Family Research Stuff - this holds the pages I copied off Jeff and Bridget's Fogarty Page several years ago when my interest in Fogarty genealogy first started.  Since their site has disappeared I thought the research information might be useful to other Fogarty researchers.  I have added a few more bits and pieces unearthed during my own researches.
