Does anyone know where else I can access Cork Records apart from Ancestry and the Mallow Center? I am trying to locate my grandmother Mary Elizabeth Birmingham b abt 1888 father John Joseph. I can't find her on Ancestry and I can see there is a few Mary Birmingham's born around that time in Cork but I can't afford to pay $10 to view each record and hope that they are the right ones. Thank you Nicci

G'day from Australia I would really appreciate some help in getting some direction in my research. Here is what I know. Patrick Murphy was married to Catherine McCarthy and in 1845 was working as a tailor in Queenstown (Cobh). They had children as follows; Margaret Ann 1835 Thomas 1836 Alice 1839 John 1841 John Joseph 1844 Catherine 1846 Charles 1848 I found these details through the Mallow Heritage Centre and they state that their births were recorded in the Cobh Parish. They couldn't find any details of the marriage of Patrick or Catherine or of the birth of their first child Maria who was born in 1834. So I guess that my question is if they weren't recorded in the Cobh Parish, where else could I look for them? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Oh and I guess a second question where would be the best place to search for marriage/ deaths etc for the other children? Maria, Margaret and Alice all came to Australia and I can't find any record of the others migrating here. I also thought that as Charles was an unusual Irish name he would stick out. With some luck they are just waiting for me to find them! Thanks and regards Ian Donaldson

I hadn't looked at this site before--sounded promising. However, it seems they don't have a mechanism for keeping low life spam off the system. Too bad.

Dear Ian,   I've found answers on Familysearch.org  and also Ancestry.com (which has a fee).  Good luck.  My Murphys are in the late 1800's.  I also got great information in the 'Irish Census of 1911.' Actually I'm looking for my grandmother's sister(Murphy) who may have gone to Australia in the 1890's or early 1900's.   Mary Fitzsimmons --- On Sun, 9/13/09, Ian Donaldson <allsure@bigpond.net.au> wrote: From: Ian Donaldson <allsure@bigpond.net.au> Subject: [CO CORK] Murphy!

Australia did not become a Commonwealth until 1901. Records of immigration before that ( and possibly later) are held by the various States. The first state was New South Wales - check out the indexes on www.records.nsw.gov.au. For other states just try 'google' for archives or immigration etc and the state - eg Victoria, South Australia, Queensland, Tasmania aka Van Diemans Land.

>From The Irish Times, 6 March 1915 -- The funeral took place in Cork on Saturday last of the late Mr. Jeremiah Ahern, of Maylor street, Cork. The remains were interred at St. Joseph's Cemetery. Mass was previously celebrated at St. Patrick's Church at 11 o'clock, by Rev. C. O'Leary, C.C. The cortege was large and impressive. Mr. Ahern was for many years a member of the Cork Corporation until ill-health forced his retirement some years ago.
