Patrick Donoghue / Donaghue, blacksmith. FIRST ENTRY – from Anthony Donoghue: Born 1820-1830, Ireland.

| DONAGHUE/DONOGHUE |
Patrick (2) |
Blacksmith |
1821 |
SECOND ENTRY – from Michael Carty: I refer to Patrick Donoghue who appears on your list. I note that there is no information recorded, which would help to identify where this Patrick Donoghue came from. I also note that his great-grandson/grandnephew Anthony is seeking information. I am aware through folklore and various records that there was a family named Donoghue, who resided in East Galway Ireland, who were blacksmiths. I can not say if the first Name was Patrick or not. The Donoghue's lived in a village, named Ballinlass. The remains of their forge could be seen up to about thirty years ago. The Donoghue family have died out, but there would still be connections in the area. The blacksmiths would be in the business of replacing shoes on horses, and ponies, repairing ploughs, making gates etc. If Anthony thinks his forebears may have hailed from East Galway, he is more than welcome to contact me. Thank you, stay safe. Contact Michael .

| St JOHN |
Michael |
Blacksmith |
1819 |
Michael St John (Sinjohn), blacksmith. My 4th great grandfather Michael St-John, (born in Ireland, died 1859 St Romauld, Quebec) and wife Mary Power were living in Quebec City, Canada by 09 Oct 1819 for the birth of son Thomas. The family was in Frampton Township, Quebec by Feb 1822 for the baptism of son John., before moving back to Quebec City by 1851 and then to St-Romauld, Quebec. His occupation as blacksmith was recorded on his death registration. Sons Thomas and James were also recorded on censuses and bmd registrations as blacksmiths. There is a possibility that Michael first settled in Newfoundland after leaving Ireland. His daughter Ellen/Helen recorded on the 1851 and 1891 censuses that she was born in Newfoundland. It is worth noting that nearly all Irish immigrants to Newfoundland in that time were from within 40 miles of Waterford City, Co. Waterford, Ireland. I have indeed found a baptismal registration for a Michael St John, baptized 8 Jan 1773, St-Patrick’s, Waterford City, son of James St John and Catherine Hearn. While I cannot yet prove this is my Michael’s bapt registration, it does seem to fit: (1) location; (2) timing, (3) names of Michael’s sons are the same as the names of Michael’s father and brothers (Irish Naming Tradition). Michael St John and Mary Power had the following children: (1) James, ca 1815-1874, m Margaret Powell, (2) Ellen/Helen, ca 1819-1891, m Nicholas Fortune; (3) Thomas, 1819-1876, m Mary Crosby; (4) John, 1822-1907, m Sarah Jane Whitty; (5) Margaret, 1824-1913 m Alexander Balfour/Belford; (6) Bridget, 1829-1903, m George Hennessey; (7) Michael, 1833-1839; (8) Mary, 1833-aft 1900, m James Smith.
