My Dowling branch is at a standstill - can anybody get me back farther ? My gr. Grandfather was James Dowling who married Elizabeth Hughes from Ballinabrnnagh in 1857. The parents of James were Patrick Dowling of Ballyloo and Mary Nowlan of Linkardstown and as far as I know the parents of Patrick were Timothy Dowling of Ballyloo and a Miss Kilsella of Kyleballhue . Timothy was born around 1765, because I found his age in a survey of "Men fit to carry Arms " . I have this information for at least 25 years and have never got back any farther.

Hi Ronnie, Did you check this site: http://newsarch.rootsweb.com/th/index/DOWLING/2002-07 Also, there are a lot of Dowlings on the IPG Carlow Rootsweb site that Michael B maintains. Did you check there? -------------------------------------------------- From: "Shorten Family" <shortenfamily@eircom.net> Sent: Monday, July 05, 2010 10:53 AM To: <irl-carlow@rootsweb.com> Subject: [IRL-CARLOW] Dowling > My Dowling branch is at a standstill - can anybody get me back farther ? > My > gr.

Hello all, I have lots of Dowlings and collaterals, but unfortunately -perhaps- they are up the street a bit, in Castledermot, County Kildare. Not too far, really..... Jean Gobel Lakewood, WA, USA

Ronnie, I have a subscription to the "Worldvitalrecords.com" databases and, among other things, this enables me to determine the filing/index information for Irish wills held at the National Archives in Dublin. To give you a jumpstart in furthering your Dowling research I did a lookup for wills for the names of Timothy and Patrick Dowling. Attached is a document with the index information for the wills I found. You may want to take a look at some of these wills when you next go to Dublin or order them (order form attache) by regular mail. I also attached other Dowling information of possible interest. Here also are the particulars for the contact person at the National Archives: Pauline Dunne Reader Services Section National Archives Bishop Street Dublin 8 Payments for copies of wills may be made by cheque or postal order. They do not have facilities at present to process credit card payments. Ordering from Canada Pauline Dunne gave me a round figure of 4 Euros to cover postage and handling for rach copy of a will. It may be less for Ireland. Well Ronnie that's about it for now.
