Kyran Condon

Abt 1831 - 1881  (~ 50 years)

• Name	Kyran Condon
  Born	Abt 1831	Caplin Bay, Newfoundland   [1]
  Gender	Male
  Residence	1870	St. John's, Newfoundland   [2]
  Cookstown Road
  Kyran was listed as a mariner.
  Died	6 Jan 1881	North Atlantic Ocean
  Based on a petition to the Supreme Court of Newfoundland, by Ellen Condon, for administration of the estate of her late husband, Kyran was drowned whilst engaged as one of the crew of the "Brunette" on a voyage from the port of St. John's Newfoundland to Oporto in Portugal, Europe on or about Jan 6, 1881. It appears that the captain of the ship on which Kyran was lost, was Washington Winsor who was born at Aquaforte, Newfoundland.

  Father	Patrick Condon,   b. Abt 1793, Co. Kilkenny, Ireland ,   d. Mar 1840, Caplin Bay, Newfoundland  (Age ~ 47 years)
  Mother	Catherine Walsh,   b. Abt 1803, Co. Kilkenny, Ireland ,   d. 6 Jul 1847  (Age ~ 44 years)
  Married	6 Oct 1822	St. John's, Newfoundland   [3]
  In October 1822, the St. John's RC Parish marriages recorded an entry that has been interpreted by some researchers as that of Patrick Condon and Catherine Walsh. Parts of the entry are hard to decipher (Fr. Whitty's penmanship wasn't great and his spellings questionable at times), but it appears to read as follows: Oct 6, 1822 - married Patrick Con(ston?) of Mo[o]ncoin, Co. Kilkenny & Catherine Walsh, St. Mary's, Ross, Co. Wexford - Present: Francis Delaney, Mary Rice. Although I have some reservations as to the interpretation of this record, the groom's name may indeed read Condon. Unfortunately the record gives no indication as to where this couple had settled in Newfoundland, so eventually placing them at Caplin Bay is speculative, but it is entirely possible.
