Hello,
I am Kevin Quinlisk. I would love to see the photo of Father William Quinlisk and any information you have about him. I am In St. Louis, Mo Great Grandson of James Patrick Quinlisk

PA - OH Quinlisks

Pastelskies — 2012-11-07 16:57:46Z

This from 2002 by Annette Quinlisk: "my husband's aunt Mary Quinlisk kept in contact with those in Ohio and Illinois..." do you have any copies of the letters your husband sent to those in Ohio, or letters from Ohio to Pux. area? To whom were they sent?

Re: Quinlisk, Chicago/Harmon, Ohio

Pastelskies — 2012-11-07 16:50:18Z

My grandmother was Sarah Quinlisk (1881-1942). She married James Harmon and I believe they must be included in a Harmon booklet put out by someone in Warren Co., Ohio. (I have not seen this booklet, but saw a message recently which stated one was available.) There is a Harmon St. in Hamilton OH named after him.

Their son, William E. Harmon, left his wife with 5 children when Dad was 10 yrs old so anything I get on this line would be appreciated. (By Dad too, by now!)

Re: Quinlisk

irishmankmq — 2012-10-26 15:47:37Z

Not sure on Martin Quinlisk. My Great Grandfather James Patrick Quinlisk arrived in 1880. I would think that is why James came here to St. Louis in the middle of the country. Must have had a line on a job or relitives. I have been by Quinlisk Crossing it is just an intersection

Re: Quinlisk

cuanfound — 2012-10-18 02:40:22Z

Thanks for the info Kevin. Are you by any chance related to Martin Quinlisk (born in Ireland 1828)? He lived in in MO before moving to KS.

Have you been to crossing?

Birth record James Quinlisk (m. 1837) to Fanny Dunne b.1822 Co.Laois

macarthurkaren — 2011-08-30 21:42:39Z

I am trying to find birth record for James Quinlisk (m. 1837, Dunkerrin Parish, Co Tipperary North) He married Fanny Grace Dunne (b. 1822, Ballinakill, Co Laois. Thady Quinlish was a witness at this marriage.

James and Fanny (Dunne) Quinlisk have 7 children between 1837-53; all baptized in Ballydonagh, Dunkerrin Parrish, Co Tipperary North).

The children are Honor-1837; Michael-1839; Mary-1841 (myggrandmother who m. John Horan 1856); Anne-1844; Bridget-1847; Fanny-1850 and Hugh-1853.

Fanny was 15 years old at time of marriage. I make an assumption James is that age....and researching birth records around 1822 +/- 5 yr for James. There are several records and it is difficult to pinpoint the correct parents.
The most promising one is:

Timothy and Margaret (Toohy) Quinlisk’s children - James (b. 1822), Hon (b. 1830), Michael (b. 1832), Theresa (b. 1837)

If any of these names match please contact me. Thank you.

I've just reviewed my Quinlisk line and haven't found anyone that has left the New England area for Missouri. It would have been interesting if there had been a connection here.

Good luck on your researching!

Hi Kevin! So far, all of the Quinlisks that I'm researching have stayed in either MA or New England. I haven't found any of them yet that have gone to Missouri. If I find that connection, I'll be sure to contact you.

(I'm visiting my son in Texas, so I'm not on my home computer to look at all the names you provided, but I will be home early this week and will check them then.)

My grandmother was a Quinlisk. She was from your area in Ireland and settled in Chicago. Her first name was Catherine. I don't know if I have her DOB - it would be sometime in the late 1800's.

Corporal Timothy Quinlisk of the Irish Brigade

Executed in February 1920 in Cork by Thomas McCurtain as an alleged British spy.

Her father was Patrick, b. 1786. She emigrated w/Michael Quinlisk whose parents were John Q & Margaret Ryan. Not sure of the relationship of Ellen & Michael. Here's a YouTube video I made of my trip: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=72u7DBzkhoE

I am researching our family. There was a Sarah Quinlisk born
approx 1828-1835 apparently in Dublin, who emigrated to Queensland Australia. She arrived on the ship 'Wanata' in March 1863 into Moreton Bay. Ther ewas a Brigit Quinlisk on the same ship listed with her, so assume it was a sister. No record of Brigit has ever been found after arrival, but Sarah went on to marry Thomas Lloyd Jones. They had five children, and Sarah lived ot a ripe old age ending life inBundaberg where her family had spread. She had done well to start as a Catholic Irish servant girl, and ended up a respected member of pioneer colonial society, owning quite an amount of property. Her father was apparently a farmer (tenant farmer I assume) and times were tough then. Does anyone have any Quinlisk family info that might link to our Sarah.

I am researching the Jones (Lloyd Jones) family and my first generation is a Thomas Lloyd Jones who emigrated to Australia 1862 from Wales. In March 1863 he married a servant girl Sarah Quinlisk who had arrived in Queensland by boat from Ireland with her sister Brigit two weeks earlier. Records show their father was a farmer in Ireland. Any information?

Wow: this is an even longer reply. Yes, there were 3 children. James Francis, Catherine and Mamie. Catherinemarried O'Donnell. James married my mother, Florence. I believe he had been married before and had a child named Rosemary. I think his first wife was Gladys. I don't know if Mamie was ever married. James owned a bar in Chicago at one time. I just found that out.

Re: St. Louis Quinlisk family

2004-10-30 17:27:57Z

Your Margaret/Marguerite was a sister to my husband's grandfather (James II m. to Elizabeth/Bess Dwyer). I have a good deal of information on this family. Believe that they are also related to the St. Louis family through the great-grandfather (also James I m. to Margaret Tracy). This James ( I) was born in Templemore, Tipperrary, Ireland around 1825. There is a place in Ireland called Quinlisk Crossroads near Templemore!!

MaryKayGeisKennedy — 2004-10-17 14:49:54Z

My husband, Thomas Kennedy, is the ggrandson of James Conrad Ackerd (PA) and Anna Margaret Quinlisk (b. jul 15 1860 in PA). The grandson of Anna Margaret (Maude) Ackerd(PA) and Martin D. Gannon (PA), and the son of Ellen Southworth Gannon(PA) and Maurice Kennedy(TX). I think Margaret A. Quinlisk (b.1860) is the same person as my husband's Anna Margaret Quinlisk. My mother-in-law often talked about relatives in Punxsutawney and Pittsburgh.
I would appreciate any information that might help verify this.
