STIRRING THE BONES: The Andrew Hickey worknotes

Andrew HICKEY [002]

=====================

This is the father of John Hickey, who married Catherine Hurley in 1869 and together emigrated to South Aust.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

THE KNOWN FACTS

c 1788/1824 – The Andrew Hickey who was the father of the John Hickey who married Catherine Hurley in Erith Kent in Oct 1869, was born.

This is based on the father of John Hickey being between say 20 and 50 years old at the time of his birth, which was variously between 1838 and 1844 acc to official records.

c 1808/1844 – This Andrew Hickey married

This is based on Andrew being married between as young as 20 years of age, but before the latest that John was possibly born.

9/7/1838 to 8/7/1839 – His son John was born in Co Cork, Ireland, a Catholic [from his son John’s death certif]

22/6/1839 – His son John was born in Co Cork [acc to the letter to Jan from Andrew Hickey, one of John’s grandsons]

8/4/1841 to 7/4/1842 – His son John was born in `Killmene' in Co Cork, Ireland [1871 Census of Kent]

8/10/1842 to 7/10/1843 – His son John was born [SA Shipping Arrivals]

4/10/1843 to 3/10/1844 – His son John was born [from his son John’s marriage certif]

1838 to 1869 – His son John went to live in England

This is based on John leaving just after birth, or just before marriage.

1838 to 3/10/1869 - Andrew died (being “Deceased” on John’s marriage certificate) [from his son John’s death certif]

3/10/1869 – His son John married a Catherine Hurley in St Mary of the Crays Catholic church in Dartford District, Kent. John was "25" (bachelor, labourer), Catherine was "21" (spinster), both shown as living in "Northumberland Heath, Erith" (two parishes away). His father shown as Andrew Hickey (deceased, labourer) and her father as Timothy Hurley (labourer). [from his son John’s death certif]

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

The ANDREW HICKEY and NORA CRONIN possibility

IF John’s father Andrew was from the northern Kilmeen parish, he could’ve been married to a NORA CRONIN

c 1796/1821 – The Nora Cronin who was married to an Andrew Hickey and had a son John bapt in Boherbue Co Cork on 18/7/1841, was born [O’Keefe]

This is based on Nora being between 20 and 45 at the time of the bapt

1836 - A "Nora Cronin of Glashakinleen, unm" was a witness at the bapt in the (Duhallow) Kilmeen parish of "Nora, dau of Daniel Flynn and Mary Cronin" (along with witn Tim Cronin) [O’Keefe]

18/7/1841 - A John Hickey was bapt to an Andrew Hickey and Nora nee Cronin in Boherbue RC, Co Cork [LDS]

This is the ONLY record of a John born to an Andrew in Cork Ireland 1830 to 1850 in LDS data.

18/7/1841 - A John Hickey was bapt to an Andrew Hickey and Nora Cronin, at Glashaceenleen, Kilmeen, Co Cork, witnesses Nora Riordan and J Riordan [O’Keefe]

This is the ONLY record of a John born to an Andrew in the O’Keefe collection data in the relevant period.

J and Nora Riordan – Spons of the John Hickey born to Andrew and Nora nee Cronin, Boherbue 1841.

Tithes – Riordans thickest in parishes of Clondrahid (long way S of Boherbue), Clonmeen (long way E of Boherbue), and Drishane (6kms S of Boherbue).

John (NO Josephs at all) Riordans in Dromsicane (6kms S Boherbue), Mohar (5kms S Boherbue), and 2 in Novahaldaly parish (10kms SW of Boherbue).

No local mar on record 1830-40

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

From “Church Records” on Irishgenealogy.ie website

There are NO marriages of an Andrew Hickey to ... Cronin or Crimmin listed from 1830 to 1850

16/9/1838 – Bapt of Mary Hickey of Caherbarnach, parish of Rathmore, father Andrew, mother Honora Cronin, spons Daniel Flyn, Honora Herlihy.

(Caherbarnagh is 4kms south of Rathmore. ????)

In 1831 TITHES for Caherbarnagh the only Hickey is a John, 142 acres. There is no really single prolific name amongst the 76 entries.

18/7/1841 – Bapt of John Hickey of Clashaceenlan, parish of Boherbue, father Andrew, mother Honora Cronin, spons J Riordan, Honora Riordan.

(This is the only hit for a John to an Andrew 1838-44 in this data)

(See the Tithes 1834 data below – no Hickeys OR Cronins)

9/7/1843 – Bapt of Timothy Hickey of Raynagashel, parish of Boherbue, father Andrew, mother Honora ... , spons J Cronin, Jane Cronin.

1864 – An Andrew Hickey death listed under Civil Records Index, for Mallow Regn Dist, age 62, being the only hit for 1838-1869.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

From the LDS website (BMD and Census)

These are the only 3 hits BMD 1830-1850 for children of an Andrew Hickey and a Nora Cronin -

16/9/1838 – A Mary Hickey was bapt to an Andrew and Honora nee Cronin at “RATHMORE WITH NOHAVAL AND KILCUMMIN, KERRY, IRELAND”

9/7/1843 – A Timothy Hickey was bapt to an Andrew and Nora nee Cronin at “ROMAN CATHOLIC, BOHERBUE, CORK, IRELAND”

A Timothy Hickey mar an Anne Murphy in Clifton Gloucs Sep ¼ 1869, 1871 Census in Clifton, both bn Ireland (Tim “Dock Labourer” c1841), Lodger Jerry Shine (age 31, bn Ire, “Dock Labourer”). (The Shines and the Murphys are prolific in Griffiths Kilmeen, with many of both in Clashykinleen).

There’s a Timothy (General Labourer) and Anne Hickey in 1881 Census for Clifton Gloucs, but he’s born c1835, she’s bn c1837, both in Ireland. Lodgers Mary Adams 55, and Louis Spero 15, both bn Bristol.

FreeBMD Index shows a Timothy Hickey aged 30 (= bn 1845) died in Marylebone parish Dec ¼ 1875.

GRIFFITHS (1847-1864) and TITHES (1823-1837)

Most of the Griffiths entries below are from 1852-1854, and the Tithes from 1832-1835. This means The Famine is in between these two sets of land-renting “census” figures.

The three most prolific TITHES Parishes for Hickeys (in Co Cork) are Cullen (adjoin south of Kilmeen) and Nohavaldaly (adjoin west of Kilmeen) in Duhallow, (plus Kilcoe down in Schull area).

The most prolific GRIFFITHS Parishes for Hickeys (with 10 or more hits, in Co Cork) are Cullen (31), St Annes Shandon (Cork City?) (14), Kilmeen (both) (11), Nohavaldaly (10), Kilcoe (down in Schull area) (10).

HICKEY (in KILMEEN Parish, mostly on Map 72)

Kilmeen parish itself has only one Hickey TITHES entry (1834), for a Cons (Cornelius?) Hickey at Islandbrack, being 22 acres of Coarse Pasture (attached to a John Horgan holding?). Reardon is the most prolific name in Islandbrack Tithes.

The 1852 GRIFFITHS for Kilmeen Parish shows only two (the same?) Andrew Hickey entries, at Knockmanagh, to Margt McAuliffe, and to James McAuliffe.

There are only 8 other Griffiths Kilmeen parish Hickeys –

OTHER RELATED DATA

The Kilmeen parish in the Barony of Duhallow is just about all in Ord Map 72, goes east (takes in Ballyhoolihan) nearly to Kanturk, to Clashakinleen on the northern edge, and west nearly to Ballydesmond.

The town of Boherbue, and the townland of Glashakinleen, are in the Kilmeen parish of Co Cork (that is, the northern Kilmeen, in the Barony of Duhallow), and the 1871 Census-taker wrote that John’s place of birth was “Killmene” in Co Cork. At that time it seems John was illiterate. There are no records of a John bapt to an Andrew in the southern Kilmeen parish in the relevant years.

The Hickey name is fairly prolific in this whole Slieve Lochra area, as is their use of the first name Andrew. The Hickeys are today said to have been blacksmiths in the 1800s, and there are old Hickey smithys still standing in Gneevguilla, Knockduff, and Lisnaboy, which all join Kilmeen parish to the south.

There is a “Hickey rath” at Lisnaboy that’s said to be the original Hickey farmstead (but no era mentioned), opp the old Hickey smithy which is still owned by a Liam Hickey, who says John and Andrew are both traditionally-used names in “their Hickey family” (as against the Hickeys from over in Ahane area).

DAN BATTIE HICKEY

On the “Living Voices” CD by Dan Battie Hickey (recorded 2002, he looks about 60-65) he says that the Hickeys came from Cullen and Lisnabee, that they came down from Co Clare (historically?) and settled in Cullen (parish?), in 5-6 townlands down there, but (in time?) became too numerous for down there, so (Dan’s?) grandfather went to Mountcain when it came up for letting in 1825 and he got over 200 acres of land there and farmed. He was certainly there in 1830 (Tithes).

But “We’re really Kerry people here” (that is, those that lived near the Blackwater River border, as that area was originally in Kerry).

He also says his grandfather was born around the time the school was built in Knocknagree, around 1840. It was my “great-grandfather” that came up from Lisnabee in 1825, and his(?) father was an Andy Hickey, and there’s a headstone in the Cullen burial place to him, “he died in 1870, 1870 48 (??) something like that, he was 76 years of age”.

Dan Battie (born abt 1940) says his grandfather was born about 1840 (presumably in Knocknagree, where Dan Battie lived at the time of the recording, but hard to fit that to Dan’s birth?), and his great-grandfather went from Lisnabee to Mountcain in 1825 (pres as an adult as he seems to be in the 1830 Tithes) was he say 25 and so born say 1820 (and HIS father was an Andrew Hickey??).
