Hi, I'm looking for some help in locating info. on my g.g.grandfather William Stuart Major. He was born on 24.9.1836 in Fermoy, his father William Major(soldier). He joined the 18th Reg. of the Royal Irish in 1850 and after a distinguished career ended up in England. He married and eventually settled in Wales. Any help on his/my Irish Roots would be most welcome. Many thanks, Su _________________________________________________________________ Tired of spam?

You might try looking at the marriage indexes for Ireland in the period when you thought she married. With these indexes, it is possible to cross-reference the groom's name to the bride's. Byrne is a common name and has common variants: the names are not always spelled on records the way the family spelled them. The McGehan name is less common and may be easier to find. When you are looking in the marriage indexes, and you come across a McGehan marriage, note the Volume and Page and District for that marriage; then check the entries for the Byrnes for the same time and see if you can match same volume, page and district. When you have the right combination, you can order the photocopy of the register from Dublin for a small fee (I think last time I did this it cost one punt fifty pence Irish money.) This will give you the location of the marriage, the residence of the fathers of bride and groom, and - perhaps - the age of the parties to the marriage. Then you can look for her in the similar indexes for births. The birth record will give the mother's maiden name as well as the father's name and occupation and residence. The indexes can be ordered in from Salt Lake to any Family History Centre.

Thanks for any help it will be much appreciated. Bery

Hi Listers; Married in Carlisle Eng 1843 JANE McMANUS parents PETER McMANUS & SARAH of Carrickfergus Ireland to ANDREW MURRAY born Carlisle parents JOHN MURRAY & BRIDGET of Queen St. Carlisle but both born in Ireland Any info on these families much appreciated Regards Mary

If you don't know exactly where an ancestor came from or what county, a check thru the Griffiths films may help you out.but not always. If they weren't tenants, or listed, you can be just out of luck. I had NO idea and still don't have any knowledge of where one set of my paternal GGparents came from when they were in Cork County.......only know they were born there in 1825 and 1826, because of census. I did luckily find out that my "other set" of GGparents did come from Kanturk and Boherbue areas, and did find them listed in 1804, and have some documentation as to marriage and baptismal from the churches there. It took 35 years to track down but I finally found them. And having no family to ask any questions I was on my own doing all the checking thru everything long before computers and websites and others to help doing "look-ups". All these people were dead long before I entered this world and no one from then on had any info..the Irish were often quite secretive about things ( some still are), for many reasons. BUT, don't let it deter you from looking-as frustrating as it all is, and if you get a clue even the smallest one and would like to see the areas that yor ancestors once lived, by all means go. I finally got the chance in June and am glad I made the trip, despite the rain.It was worth it all and really a thrill to be able to walk the streets/roads they once walked, and lucky for me seeing the houses they lived in back then. Who knows you might just run into someone who can give you information on a family that left the area even tho it was many years ago. And there are phone books to look up names and check and see if someone is related..... so don't hesitate make the trip! Pat

All that I see is a yellowish picture of some imigrants on a boat.

Looking for birthplace for ISABELLA ROBINSON. The 1881 census for Leeds/Grenville, Ontario, Canada, lists her b.place as Ireland, but no county. She was 45 in this list, so probably born in 1836. Husband's name, JOSEPH LAPIER, born in Ontario. Occupation listed as trackman. Both Presbyterian. Thank you for your help. IDA M.

First of all - hi everyone! I am new to this list and desperately in need of help! I am searching for the family of my gr-gr-grandfather Patrick O'Connor who was from Aclare in Co. Sligo. Patrick, and his brother John (at least at the moment we are assuming they are brothers) came over from Ireland to Bradford in the UK sometime around 1870 - Patrick married Bridgett O'Rourke in 1875 and his brother married her sister Catherine soon after. Patrick appears to have been born in 1848 although his death certificate was altered shortly after his death and it could actually be 1843. His brother John appears to have been born in 1855 - the 1881 census shows him as 23/6 - both are listed as masons labourers. I obtained the marriage certificate of Patrick and his father is listed as Michael Connor - Farmer. So, if anyone has a Michael Connor/O'Connor in Aclare who had 2 sons Patrick and John that have gone missing can you please let me know!

==================================           In the USA, volunteers will go out to their local cemeteries and photograph grave markers for people who request this at a website called "Headstone Hunters".           I reimburse the volunteers for film, processing, postage, etc. as I don`t expect a free service. This service has enabled me to obtain grave marker photos of relatives` graves thousands of miles from me.           I wonder if there are any volunteers in Ireland that photograph grave markers in their local cemeteries? Does Ireland have its own version of "Headstone Hunters"?
