I recently received some additional information about my Hickey's, possibly yours' too! I am pulling it together and will post it by April 20th, I promise. I found a cousin of mine who did some research via the Clare Heritage Center. She is sending me her research in the mail but I do have access to some of it on Ancestry.com. I will pull it off of there and post the additional information that I have. Thanks for reading my blog post too!zelserskhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11392051499155306765noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1283298824425438148.post-45954890713453375222011-04-07T09:41:26.967-07:002011-04-07T09:41:26.967-07:00Thanks for your post.

The place near Killimorbologue and Portumna is Whitegates not Whitegate. Whitegate (part of the civil parish of Clonrush) was part of Galway until 1898, when the county boundary moved. It then became part of Clare. Of course, many didn't know this, or didn't care if they did, and still referred to Whitegate as in County Galway. So your grandfather understandably thought he came from Galway.<br /><br />In 1912, my father's first cousin married Elizabeth Hickey, the second surviving daughter of the late Thomas Hickey of Whitegate Co. Galway. From the 1901 and 1911 censuses, Elizabeth was born betwen 1872 and 1875. Is your Patrick Hickey a brother or some other relative? If so, I'd be very grateful for any further information you have.<br /><br />David LynchAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16286623922791634667noreply@blogger.com
