* CALLAGHAN, William, Irish Lightkeeper, 1800’s
William was certainly a Lightkeeper at Slyne Head, Bloody Foreland and Poolbeg and a known child was Bridget Agnes CALLAGHAN. It's believed that he married 3 times and possible wives names were Susan BRADY and Agnes BARBOR. He was, I believe, related to:
Frank CALLAGHAN, Saddler, Harness Maker, 11 Dame Street, Dublin (possibly Frank O'CALLEGHAN Birth abt 1848 South, Dublin, Dublin, Ireland Spouse Catherine DALY Marriage abt 1873 South, Dublin, Dublin, Ireland)
T. J. CALLAGHAN & Co. Ltd., Saddlers, Tailors, Outfitters, 13, 14, 15, 16 Dame Street, Dublin. (possibly Thomas Joseph Calligan Birth 11 Jan 1874 Dublin, Ireland Father: Frederick CALLIGAN Mother: Elizabeth MOLONEY)
Other children are thought to be Caroline, Robert, William and Mary Jane O'CALLAGHAN
I have a possible marriage for William to Mary MULLANEY in 1830, Stokestown, Roscommon, Ireland and the birth of a daughter Bridget O’CALLAGHAN but I think it’s too early. I have no idea where William was born or when.
* McKNIGHT, David, House Painter, late 1800’s to bef 1911
David McKNIGHT married Bridget CALLAGHAN. I was told she ‘ran away’ to marry him because their religions were different and she was possibly disowned by her family. They were living in Dublin in 1879 at 19 Chatham Street and David was a House Painter.
Children of this marriage that are ‘missing’ include Elizabeth (Lizzie) McKNIGHT, James McKNIGHT, William McKNIGHT, David McKNIGHT and Theresa McKNIGHT and one or more of them may have emigrated. Children whose history is partially known are Robert Brady, May Jane, Caroline, Katharine and George (emigrated to USA 1913, m KIRKLEY).
Their father David died before 1911 and Bridget in June 1922. She was buried at Mount Jerome Cemetery on 13th Jun 1922.
Any help to identify these families would be *greatly* appreciated as I just don’t know how to find them.
