Dear Carol. I looked up both names and I was unable to find any listing for Owen. I found 66 listings for the spelling of Bradley and 8 listings for the spelling of Broadley. Let me know if there are any other given names that you would like me to look up....

Debbie, would you do a look- up for me? Are there any STINSONS or TALBOTS or O'QUINS listed. Thanks so much. Mary Jo

I'm posting this to two lists, hoping someone can give me some direction/ideas etc. I'm stumped. How do I go about finding a family, or cemetery records, in Ireland, especially one with a very common name? I know they were in Co. Tyrone. N. Ireland. I don't know what parish. I know approximately the year he emigrated - 1799, and about how old he was, 17, but my source has been wrong before.....Mr. Jordan's books. I know the emigrant's first and last name. William Peoples......but not his middle name. He died in America; left his young son with another farmer, and went west.......but I don't know where. So here I am unable to find this fellow's beginning or end. That's it. How do I proceed to find a family in Ireland? How do I find where he went? My guess was that his wife died.....I found him on an 1820 PA Fayette Co. census, with wife and 2 daughters, in 1827 he has his son, next thing I know he's gone, family is gone, and the son is left with another couple. Was there an epidemic? If anyone with some genealogy savvy can fill in some blanks here, I'd be truly grateful! amie

Hi My grandfather ROBERT JAMES HENRY GRAHAM was born in Ireland c 1840 came to Canada in 1868/9 as far as I know his parents were ROBERT & MARY they were listed as married in Scotland. Family gossip for want of a better word had it that he travelled buying horses for Guinnesses but not verified. Any idea where to start? Thanks Mary

There is a wealth of information on-line for Irish Research. First, the absolutely best on-line site for any gen research is: cyndislist.com--that will take you anywhere you need to go if you follow the links. Also, go to your favorite search engine, google.com or yahoo.com or whatever and type in Ireland or Irish genealogy or some such. That will keep you busy for a while. Oh, and don't forget to go to: family search.org and do a search. There's an 84-page how-to guide there for Irish research; it has lots of good links to records and sources. -- polly -- Polly Shaw Office: 703-549-9292 x259 Northern Virginia MailTo:[email protected] Web: http://www.pollyshaw.com Outgoing mail scanned by Norton 2002

Hello Debbie! If you have time! I have been trying to find where my #4 g/gf came from in Ireland. Peter Young b 1749 and left home for the US and was next in Rowan Co., NC abt. 1766. I have a m bond for him? and Katherine Totorow 1802. That is the family story, no proof! I was in Ireland in May 2000 and loved it! I wish I had more Time! Thank you for your time. Take care, Roland Young, Clovis, Ca.

Hi Debbie, I would very much appreciate a lookup for Patrick KENNY and Teresa CONLAN when you have the time. No rush. Thank you for your very generous offer to do lookups. Kind Regards, Michele

To Whom It May Concern: NOT all people were registered regardless of civil registration for all that went into effect in 1864. Many births were not registered at all. Especailly since most births in those days took place at private homes, unless someone went to the registration office and did this, on th eother hand a lot of registrations took place long after the birth, when th echild was much older and wouldn't be in the year claimed as being born. However, IF you know th earea, and church the people lived you might get a baptismal/christening record from the church. especailly if they were Roman CAtholics. This would have been done within the year of birth, but will only show when the baptism/christening took place not how old the child was, or it's birth date. This goes for those that were bon of Irish parents in England also. Proni doesn't even have all the info and some years ae not filmed at all! The Irish didn't trust the English, therefore registration wasn't a big thing to them, they may have figured it was a ploy to keep them in check, or for a tax purpose, who knows. I looked for 35 years all over Clare and Cork for my ancestors since I was told they had come from Clare! Then found out thru my Grandfather US Army pension records his FAther was supposedly living in cork, and started a search there. Finally found they ( my GGparents) had moved to England in the late 1850s during the "potatoe famine, they had 4 children there,between 1858-1865 and none were registered. Found my maternal GGmother and her family in England finally and there are no births registered for her family despite 6 children born between 1855-1873. This took over 35 years to find for me. I started long before computers, and having things like Ancestry or lists to ask for look ups. You have to dig and keep digging. See if you can find out area where they came from the county and town and write letters to the churches with a nice donation and you might just get yourself a big surprise of all the info you want. Or have a search done by the professional services offered by the heritage centers. Irish research is NOT easy by any means unless you have a relative who wrote it all down somehere and kept it safe! Even then you have to check it all out, yourself to make sure. And there are some very good researchers in Ireland who do look ups and get the info for you at a niminal fee. I was helped by one very good researcher who finally found some of my ancestors, and she made some very good suggestions helping me with places I could check out myself. Good luck, just remember breaking down these brick walls is daunting at times! Pat

Debbie, Re: CD of Parish Records. Does the CD contain civil parish records, or religious parishes? If the latter, what religion? Thanks, Tom.

Hi Debbie.............when you ahve time would you be kind enough to look up the names Hindman and Beamish for me. Also are there CDs for any of the other counties............say Cork for example ??? Thanks [email protected] in beautiful snowy upper NY state

This is a summary of the parish records CD. Hope this helps narrow down the search The 435,008 records in this database come from cemetery tombstone transcriptions and similar sources in the counties of Antrim, Down, and Louth around 1538 to 1837. Parish records like these cemetery records can provide the best source of vital record information in the centuries before civil registration. Some of the records may be in Latin or even a local dialect depending on location. The spelling is archaic, and is transcribed as it was written. There are many spelling inconsistencies and non-standard grammar. Phonetic spelling is often used. This database may not include all dates and records for each cemetery, parish, or location. Use caution in assuming that any database is a complete set of records-even for the counties and time period listed. Due to the legibility of the original sources and subsequent transcriptions, there may be gaps in the records, including partial sentences, cut-off words, and other omissions. Thanks, Debbie

Inscribed by William Hindman of Ballyhay. Also the above William Hindman who died 01 Jul 1956 aged 63 years. This is the listing for Beamish Surname: This one is taken from Musgrave's Obituaries Prior to 1800 Davison, Tho., of Beamish, near Durham. 21 Sep 1769. (G.M. 463.)

Hello Robert, I actually purchased this CD for ancestry.com. I think I paid 10.00 for it at the time but I am not sure if it is still that price. I think when I purchased it, it was on sale...
