Sure look it: Joseph and Anne hitched up in Tipperary!

There's a lot about the Millses in Ireland we still don't know. I've talked on this blog before about John Mills's journey in 1835 from Ballysheehan in County Tipperary in Southern Ireland to upstate New York, settling in Warren County, the fact that the Bibby family, which John's wife Margaret was part of, also came from the same county, the scattered mentions of Millses in census fragments from Ireland from the 1820s all the way to the 1870s, and that fact that the Millses came from the "heartland of Ireland" which was then part of the United Kingdom, most of which, apart from the northern section, become it's own independent country. Apart from that, I've found records, as I've recounted on here, of Millses in Dublin and the same county, the possible similarities in terrain between Southern Ireland and upstate New York, records of various John Millses in the 1820s in the same county, and records the National Archives of Ireland has on Millses. Furthermore, I've talked about Ireland's various famines (like the potato famine), so-called "goat gangs" or that Bob Mills at one point spent time in Ireland itself, if I have that right. Whether John and Margaret, who raised the Mills family of 10 children (by my count) [1] in Glen Falls, Chester, and other towns on Warren County, [2] grew up poor we will never know, but we can say they seem to have grown up in a rural area, connecting to what I've mentioned in passing before, with the same said on whether John Mills was a canal boat captain, or all the specifics of John's early years in Warren County, even as his death date of 1876 is pretty clear.

With that being said, and since this blog is focused on "the Irish history of my familial roots" as I noted back in March 2018, with a cast of important characters, informed by the existing history of the U.S. and Ireland, I was excited to see this email from FamilySearch:

It left open the possibility of getting one of the questions I asked back in April 2018 fulfilled, at least in part: who were John Mills's parents?

The records themselves were marriage bonds of Joseph Mills and Anne Ryall! They would have, if my implications are right, possibly six children: Rachael, Thomas, Edward, Isaac, and Dorothea "Dorothy," and John. [3] Unfortunately, I have no direct evidence that Joseph and Ann are the parents, so I am only going with the supposition right now. Anyway, here are screenshots from the pages [4] which show Joseph Mills and Anne Ryall married in Emly, County Tipperary, Ireland in 1796:

This post was originally published on WordPress in November 2020.

Looking earlier in the set, we can see this is just an index to marriage license bonds, which means that there are likely more records somewhere on the topic. [5] Now, we know the marriage happened in Cashel and Emly. So, the latter is a parish, seat of a diocese, within the barony of Clanwilliam, county of Tipperary, and the province of Munster, which is 15 miles west from Cashel, within Limerick County, according to the 1837 A Topographic Dictionary of Ireland. Cashel, on the other hand, is a city, market, and borough, within the Middlethird Barony, county of Tipperary, and the province of Munster according to the same Topographic Dictionary. However, this doesn't answer the question: what is the diocese of Cashel and Emly? It is a Roman Catholic diocese that got the name of Cashel and Emly in May 1718. At the time that Joseph and Anne married, Thomas Bray was the ordained bishop. As it turns out, the records held by the church are not public records, so that makes looking at them a bit more tricky, as the Archdiocese of Cashel and Emily have to approve access.

So that adds another piece of the puzzle when it comes to the Millses!

THE IZZY WHEELS SISTERS AT INSPIREFEST [AN IMPRESSIVE PRESENTATION]-130309 by William Murphy Via Flickr: In many these sisters were the highlight of the day. My 22 year old niece is named Ailbhe and when she was young nobody [even Irish people] could pronounce her name and funny enough the MC at Inspirefest did not get it correct on Friday [but to be fair she did correct herself]. One reason I mentioned my niece was that her younger sister was confined to a wheelchair for much of her life and she was always trying to customise her chair. One reason for confusion when it comes to pronouncing Ailbhe is that there is an Irish Saint Ailbe. “Izzy and Ailbhe have always been best friends. Izzy was born with a spinal condition called Spina Bifida. She is paralysed from her waist down. Growing up it has always frustrated her how few options were available for her to personalise her wheelchair.” Ailbhe Keane Creative director, Izzy Wheels Ailbhe Keane is has always been very passionate about art and design. Even as a little girl, she loved decorating her little sister Izzy’s wheels for special occasions. Keane founded Izzy Wheels in her final year at the National College of Art and Design, where she received a first-class honours degree. She created Izzy Wheels so that her sister’s wheelchair could reflect her bright and bubbly personality. Izzy Keane Brand ambassador, Izzy Wheels Izzy Keane was the inspiration behind the Izzy Wheels brand. Because she was born with spina bifida, she is paralysed from her waist down and has been a wheelchair user all of her life. Growing up, she found it very frustrating that there was nothing available for her to personalise her wheelchair. Keane proves to the world that you shouldn’t let your disability get in the way, you should embrace it. Saint Ailbe, usually known in English as St Elvis, was regarded as the chief 'pre-Patrician' saint of Ireland (although his death was recorded in the early 6th-century). He was a bishop, confessor and later saint. Little that can be regarded as reliable is known about Ailbe: in Irish sources from the 8th century he is regarded as the first bishop, and later patron saint of Emly in Munster. Later Welsh sources (from the 11th c.) associate him with Saint David whom he was credited with baptising and very late sources (16th c.) even give him a local Welsh genealogy making him an Ancient Briton. “Izzy and Ailbhe have always been best friends. Izzy was born with a spinal condition called Spina Bifida. She is paralysed from her waist down. Growing up it has always frustrated her how few options were available for her to personalise her wheelchair.”
