Patrick Noonan wife Ellen Burke Noonan and family

Patrick Noonan wife Ellen Burke Noonan and family

Have no idea when Patrick Noonan, and his wife Ellen Burke were born, but I know that they had at least 3 children. Patrick"Percy"(conceivably still living though I doubt it) Nora Mary (Noonan)Harte, and Ellen Noonan.
Ellen came to Reading MA USA to live with and care for her uncle Dennis, and two maiden aunts Molly and Madge. Ellen was 35 when she came to MA in 1950.
and died in Reading MA in 2007, age about 91 I think. In 2010 Nora died and I thus am wondering about"Percy". I'd love obituaries for all(except Ellen's who I have).
Where and when were Patrick and Ellen born, Who were their parents and sibblings.etc.
Also if anyone can find obituaries for Dennis, Molly and Madge here in MA I'd appreciate those as well. They probably would have been buried in Reading, and waked from the Doherty Funeral Home there.(but not sure).

Thank you , and before anyone tells me I plan to post the request for Dennis, Molly and Madges obit. inf on MA (Middlesex Co) board as well.

Ellen was born about 1915-1916, you could try looking for her parents and siblings if born younger in the 1911 Irish census. www.census.nationalarchives.ie I think anything earlier would give you too many. If there is a possibility that Percy is still alive then he must be quite old.

The parents might not be married yet and you could search separately for them. There are quite a lot of choices.

The parents of the couple would name their children for their parents, 1st. son after father's father; 2nd. son after wife's father; 1st. girl after mother's mother, and 2nd. girl after father's mother.

www.familysearch.org Civil Registrations for Ireland 1864-1950's

Probably Ancestry is your best bet for obituaries. Or www.findagrave.com for a gravestone
inscription.

Ellen was 35 when she came to Reading in 1950. Her parents were Patrick Noonan and Ellen (Burke)Noonan. Her known sibblings were Patrick"Percy" and Nora Mary(Noonan)Harte. I've learned that Percy along with Nora and Ellen are all deceased. Nora died in 2010, Ellen in 2007, and Percy I'm not quite sure of.
Percy was married as well.
I'd love to try to find any living members of this Noonan family. They came from Co Cork, just North of Cork City. But family could be anywhere in area I guess.
Thanks

What about a few phone calls to the Noonan's still living in the known area of Cork. This is just not that long ago. Some families don't go far. Its hard to find people after 1911. Post on the Cork message board as well.

I don't make long distant calls to other countries --- ever for any reason, nor do I make long distant state wide phone calls. Letters, if I had addresses would be a possible option, but I don't have addresses.

What about using the addresses in the on line telephone books to write letters.? No postal codes are needed for Cork, only for Dublin itself. Annette
