Really? When you next speak to them could you ask if they know of Mienies? I think it's a few miles to the West. |

Just been reading the article again. It seems to be in County Cork between Dromdaleague and Dunmanway. |

Hi Paul, I never heard of the place but wondered if it could be the Irish name so means very little to us. I found a place called Maínis Connemara there is a page about it hope it of use to you. http://irishislands*info/conmweenish*html Any problems with the page please email me. Pat x |

It's mentioned in the Illustrated London News, February 20, 1847. It's just a passing mention. An 1881 census enumerator wrongly put my ancestors' births as the Minories, a place in East London, but I know they came from Ireland. I'm convinced it's a place that sounds like Minories. (Hi Marion. Been very busy on a business tender for a couple of weeks but back in harness now!) |
