by grannymar marriage of mr john molony and miss kenny the marriage of j molony and miss kenny took place on 30th january when the lonely surroundings of coolmeen were enlivened by a gay wedding party the ceremony was performed by rev d courtney pp and mr martin moloney cousin of the bridegroom was best man the bride youngest daughter of the late daniel kenny coolmeen was given away by her brother and looked charming in a biscuit coloured dress trimmed with chiffon and roses miss roche ennis and miss mary reidy boloughera were bridesmaids and were tastefully dressed in fawn colour cloth with hats to match the wedding party were met at kildysart by a number of young men bearing torch lights who headed the procession through the village the guests were entertained at the home of mr moloney martin unusual wording for this day and age the above report appeared in the clare journal on monday 12th february 1900 the wedding took place one hundred and fourteen 114 years ago today coolmeen is a townland in county clare ireland it is located on the north bank of the shannon estuary 7 kms 3 5 irish miles to the south west of kildysart modern road sign at the cross roads why my interest 1 mr john molony and his bride with no first name were my paternal grandparents she did actually have a first name margaret she was the daughter of daniel kenny and bridget kelly the kenny s were part of the reason for my auburn hair 2 the different spellings of the name molony moloney they were correct john molony martin moloney were in fact double cousins each related through both of their parents years later my father served his time as a draper s assistant to martin moloney sons textile specialists 3 the description of the outfits worn by the bride and bridesmaids can you imagine any bridesmaid or flower girl today being described as tastefully dressed in fawn colour cloth jen triona and alice i am looking at you three in particular the giddy goose of my inner crafting eye is visualising the misses roche reidy wrapped mummy fashion from a large bail of fawn cloth as sold by martin moloney sons do you think they got a discount bale of cloth let me take you back before this date in 1900 it was in march 1878 that john was appointed postmaster of kildysart besides running the post office john became registrar of births marriages and deaths travel agent for all the trans atlantic shipping lines insurance agent the inspector of gunpowder and gun licenses an import export agent he opened a grocery bar so stamps and postal orders were sold at one counter and groceries liquor at the one opposite my grandfather was the man who anyone wishing to emigrate to america or england went to for his or her identification papers mind you the licensing act of 1872 forbade anyone to be drunk while in charge of a cow or steam engine on a public highway i wonder how that effected business on a fair day 1907 molony family at post office john margaret molony with the first five of their eleven children outside the post office in 1907 the babe in arms dressed like a doll was in fact john sure tis no wonder he ran off to america in 1925 no i don t think he was wearing dresses when he went john later extended his portfolio as we say today by buying a small farm he had a large family to feed and rear and the boys took their turn at bringing home the cows for milking and taking them back to the fields before and after school each day my grandmother worked in the shop as well as keeping hens geese a goat i think a couple of pigs were under her charge too in the early 1900s there were many businesses and trades in kildysart saddlers shoemakers nailmakers dressmakers milliners blacksmiths tailors and millers alas most of these no longer exist moving forward to 1942 3 the following description of the kildysert area is interesting considered a quiet village in today s world kildysart has minimarkets hardware shops a bank pharmacist clinic veterinary clinic credit union garage rc church community centre quay marina and seven pubs alas no mention of the post office the post office is now mcmahon s chemist shop a name mentioned in the 1942 link above the post office is now a chemists shop not alone were they my grandparents but there were many similarities unknowingly repeated in my life this double spelling surfaced again in the next generation my father dan molony married my mother eileen moloney although she was born in dublin her paternal moloney ancestors came from murroe in county limerick across the mouth of the river shannon from kildysart county clare the double cousins have come into play for some of my nieces and nephews since two of my brothers married two sisters posted in family memories stories tagged family family
