Re William Coady
I am very interested in tracking down information about a William Coady born in Bear Cove - late 1800s I guess.
He left home as a very young man - never to be heard from again - assumed to have gone on a boat and lost at sea - although there was never any evidence to support that fact - and his mother always believed he was alive somewhere.
Oddly, at one point in the 1980s, his baby sister - then a senior citizen - received a call from a hospital in Boston. The caller was supposed to be a nurse who said that there was an old man at their hospital who wasn't very well but wanted the hospital to track down his baby sister. The old man said that he was William Coady from Bear Cove.
His sister never followed up on it - assuming it was some sort of hoax. But I am putting it out there on the off chance that it might have been the truth as my children would be relatives of this gentleman.

If your great grandparents were born in Bear Cove then they are related to my children from their late father's side - William Fowler - born to Gertrude Coady Fowler and Michael Fowler.
Bear Cove residents would still have been married in Renews. As well, children born in Bear Cove (near Renews) would be christened in Renews but should have their birth place listed as Bear Cove. Unless they were born in Renews - which was so in my husband's case - and as well could have happened at other times as the mid-wife was in Renews.
There was an Andrew Coady born in Bear Cove in the early 1900s or before. Andrew Coady was one of the children of Ned and Mary Jane Coady. Later, the family moved to Renews. This Andrew settled in St. John's and still has children living there.
Regarding a Richard Coady, I happened to be speaking to an older gentleman - Mr. Power - who visited Cappahayden - possibly during the summer of 2010. I believe he told me that his mother had been originally from Renews - the daughter of Richard Coady. My husband wasn't with me at the time when I was chatting with Mr. Power. I mentioned it later to him and he had been aware of a Richard Coady from Renews.
Regarding the Dinn family name, that is certainly a Renews name.

I am trying to find additional information on Thomas "Tommy" Coady who was born (I think) in Kilcormac, County Offaly in around 1909.
He married an Elizabeth Murphy and died (I think) around 1970 in Clonaslee, County Laois.
Apart from his marriage and place of death, everything else is what family think happened but I am trying to trace his parents and add some sources to him.
