Fred Faulkner's theories
Fred Faulkner
did useful work on the Ryan family tree.
But he
had various theories on the origin of this family that we do not agree with.
See Fred Faulkner's theories.
Our family is the Ryan "Tim" family.
Our family starts with:
-
Tim Ryan,
Timothy, Catholic.
His family was called the Ryan "Tim" family.
He was a
farmer in Newross, Kilnarath par,
NE of Newport, Co.Tipperary.
He married before 1814.
There is a Catholic William Ryan of Newross
who
must be closely related.
Probably a brother of Tim Ryan.
We have the following links:
-
"Biddy Ryan" (probably William's wife) sp the bapt of Tim's dau on 15 Aug 1816.
-
"Tim Ryan" sp the bapt of William's son on 29 Aug 1816.
-
"William Ryan" sp the bapt of Tim's dau in 1822.
-
William Ryan is listed as
"William Ryan (Timothy)" in 1835.
So he is also of the Ryan "Tim" family.
-
William ended up living with (must be his nephew)
Mickey Tim Ryan
when he was evicted.
- Note that William's wife was also a Ryan (Bridget Ryan).
So in theory, Bridget and Tim could be the siblings, and William just married in.
But then would William be referred to as "William Ryan (Timothy)"?
And would he go to live with an in-law nephew, not a blood relation nephew?
I think it is more likely William and Tim are siblings.
So probably brother of Tim Ryan is:
-
William Ryan,
Catholic,
of Ryan "Tim" family.
Farmer, of Newross, NE of Newport, Co.Tipperary.
He married before 1814.
