Tynans from Ballycahill, Tipperary

Tynans from Ballycahill, Tipperary

Surnames: Tynan, Ryan.
I am looking for the family of Margaret Tynan, born around 1808. She married Michael Ryan and had their children baptized in the Ballycahill (Holycross) parish from around 1828 - 1840. I know there were Tynans in Ballynahow, Newtown and Moneydass town lands of Ballycahill. I am yet to prove which family Margaret was from.
At least one son, Thomas Michael Ryan went to Australia as did a daughter Bridget Catherine Ryan b 1824. Bridget married Lawrence O'Rourke in Melbourne in 1857. It is possible that the whole family emigrated, but I have yet to find proof.

I would like any information regarding the Tynans of Ballycahill.

Hi there - good to hear from you.
I have done a dna test with FtDna, as has my brother. Margaret Tynan was my GGG grandmother, so we are getting a wee way back so I hope it will show on dna.

It would be great to make some sort of headway with my people as I have been banging my head.

My test kit on Ftdna in 233326, brother's is 310171, both Driscolls.

I have been to Ballycahill, and Holycross where the records are recorded.....but the priest was unwell and could not let me into see the registers to get the town land part of the record, but there were only Tynans in Newtown, Moneydass, and Ballynahow town lands of Ballycahill parish. I suspect they were in Newtown and all left the area for Australia and America. I found a brother in Victoria, Australia, but none of the others.....yet.
Margaret married a Ryan......and that does not help matters at all!
I visited the Ryan's who are currently on the property that the Tynan's had a house on. It had been pulled down as it was a ruin. The photographs of their family were eerily like mine.

Margaret has been a bit of an enigma and I am keen to find out anything about the Tynan's of this area.

kindest regards
