Hi all, I am searching for a birth in Cavan in 1864. Can anyone tell me what information I would find on the 1864 index of Quarterly Returns? I notice there are 11 rolls of film in the other 1864 series. Can someone enlighten me what the 'v' stands for? Regards Julie Searching WEIRS from Ashfield, Cootehill, Kildrumsherdan

Julie - The INDEX films give only a scant bit of information....hopefully enough to idenitfy the right Birth [or marriage or death] you are seeking. The Index films are a series of 90 films made by the LDS church. The full handwritten Registration can be ordered from the GRO. Some years of these same REGISTRATION entries were filmed by the LDS church, there are around 1430 films in this series. A made-up example of a birth INDEX entry : Index film for 1864 : O'Lantern, Jack ...... Baillieborough.....2-345 Translates to Jack O'LANTERN's birth was registered in 1864 in Baillieborough volume 2 page 345. If you then order the LDS film with 1864 Births, volume 2 [happens to be #101081] you need to scroll to page 345 and look down the page of names to find Jack O'LANTERN's full entry. Without the Index film, you'd be looking through almost every frame of the film [thousands of images per film] to find it. The Index films are very important to finding the original entry. If you can't order the actual registration film or it wasn't a filmed year, you can go to the GRO's website online and for 6 Euros get a photocopy of the original handwritten entry [same as what was filmed]. If you give them the Index information from the Index film [name, year, parish, volume and page #] you will only pay 4 Euros each but that isn't on the GRO Fees pages, I confirmed this by writing them an eMail and asking. You will have to tell them you have the Index information to get the lesser price. I have access to the 1864 Birth Indexes for all of Ireland [film #101041] and can look up a name if you contact me. The nearest LDS church [only 8 minutes from my home] has all of the Index films that were made by the church microfilmers, but only a rare few of the actual register films are there to view, most have been sent back after ordering and viewing. Its easy to get lost trying to figure out the system. These films are not in stock and must be ordered into each FHC. Looking at one of the Birth Registrations from a film, these are the column headings, note that the name of the infant might be blank or say Unknown. It was not required that the child have a name to be registered. Most did, but some are seen with a last name only. Also, the last column about the Baptismal name is usually blank. Surely some have data but none I've seen yet. Number Date and Place of Birth Name [if any] Sex Name and Surname and Dwelling Place of Father Name and Surname and Maiden Surname of Mother Rank or Profession of Father Signature, Qualification and Residence of Informant When Registered Signature of Registrar Baptismal Name if added after Registration of Birth and Date Meg Greenwood / Oklahoma USA >

Regards Julie Searching WEIRS from Ashfield, Cootehill, Kildrumsherdan Julie, If I recall correctly, in the civil register you will find the surname, name of the child (if given when registered), mother's name, father's name and occupation, townland, county. I believe the "v" you mention is the Volume for the Registry; that will help if you order film from Salt Lake. Regards. ************************************** See what's free at http://www.aol.com.

Julie, the index will only list the surname and given name, the Poor Law Union (PLU) where the birth was registered, the volume and page number of the original record. The year and quarter are for when the birth was recorded, not the actual birthdate. It will look like this: Births Cullivin Mary Castleblayney v11 p417 You would then have to either order the film for that year and volume, or order a photocopy from the Dublin GRO.

There is an index to Griffith's Original Valuation online that you can search by surname and County. I entered just "Hew" under partial surname, to get all possible spellings. (You also might play with it.) There is no Francis Hewit(t) in Cavan listed, but this is not a census. It just is a very large list of land occupiers in Ireland c. 1856-7. Sorry to not have an easy answer for you.

Hello Don, I had a relative, Robert Shannon who married a Kate (Catherine) McGovern in Sydney in 1877. I checked the BMD in Australia for her birth but cannot be sure that she was born here. I am 83 years old now and although we often visited Auntie Shannon (Kate McGovern)and I remember her well, I cant recall any early details. Under separate email I will send you my notes on Robert Shannon who married Kate McGovern. There were so many McGoverns who came to Australia (and in Ireland)that I cannot sort them at all. I did note that many Shannon people were also shown in Griffiths Valuations.

Dear listers, I am new to this list and would like to ask for some help with the families I am researching. I am not sure if I have found the right spot in Ireland yet, but have a possible lead to Tullyvin, Cavin. I am looking for the following families: James Gorman and wife Annie Dunn probable children born between 1830 - 1843 include Patrick, Mary, Michael C., Ellen, Jane, John, Bridget and Johanna. Unknown Gorman probably children born between 1820 - 1845 include Thomas, Bridget, Johanna, Bernard, Jane, John, Michael, Patrick and Mary Ann. Associated families are: Ann (Hannah) (possibly Reilly) born abt. 1840 Ellen May Conway born abt. 1841 Elizabeth Irwin born abt. 1839 Thomas Kennedy born abt. 1843 James McFarland born abt. 1820 Patrick Cronin born abt. 1821 Margaret (possibly Clark) born abt. 1843 Belinda May born abt. 1845 John Noonan born abt. 1825 (These people are all spouses - they were married except for Margaret Clark in Philadelphia, PA, USA) Also brothers John Dunn born 1825 and Michael P. Dunn born 1833. Their mother's name was probably Julia. Also Thomas Hendrick born about 1820, possibly the son of Charles. Also William Virtue born about 1792, wife Elizabeth born 1796, and son Anthony born 1830. If any of this looks familiar, or there are any online resources or records available that I can personally search, I would love to hear about it. This is a massive Philadelphia family that has taken me 18 years to investigate. The 1930 census for only two people confirms that this family was not from Northern Ireland, but from the Irish free states. Thanks to anyone that can help!

Hi Listers Still on the hunt for any info about HUGH McCABE b Ireland 1862 approx: his father was Edward McCABE. l know he moved to Liverpool, because he married ELIZABETH CONDREN there in1884. Ann-Leeds

Seems like the next step, if no one on the list recognizes the names, would be to search the Church of Ireland and Presbyterian registers for the area. Diane </HTML>
