Hi, Looking for information on this person and his family. How do I research in Irish records to get further information. Thanks, Heather Matthew Stewart he was a Methodist Minister,he married Elizabeth McClure,and their daughter is Anne Stuart. James Oliffe Snr. was born c.1780 in Bandon, Cork, Ireland. By 1808 he was a Methodist Minister and about this time, he married Anne STUART. Over the next forty years or so, he was transferred by his church to various ministries in Ireland.
