Lynch Family Register

This register was written by Patrick Neison Lynch b. 1817. He was appointed Bishop of Charleston from 1857 - 1882 after being a Priest from 1840 at 23 years old.

Bishop Patrick Neison Lynch visited Roslea in 1864 and made a list of the family members, who they married, how many children they had and where they were living. His father, Conlaw Lynch b. approx. 1802 d. 1870, brother of Bernard Lynch, had migrated to USA and Patrick Neeson Lynch was born there. Patrick's mother was Eleanor Neison b. approx. 1804.

In the 1880 US Census, for South Carolina, Bishop Lynch can be seen, as head of the household, along with the other people who resided with him. This Census has his birthplace as South Carolina but he was actually born in Kibberidogue, Roslea, County Fermanagh before his parents left for USA.
