Thanks and apologies to all with regard to this queries. On "mature reflection" as we say here in Ireland Kay is quiet correct. I had an actual relation of both Kay and I with me yesterday evening and we were reviewing the family link we he highlighted. Foolishly after leaving me I reviewed his notes that he had listed Anne married to John Xavier Harrington. I had presumed Harrington was a place. O.K. one slap on the wrist to me. Thanks to all for getting involved. I will be linking up with Kay direct with more information for her.

Friends, I am trying to assist with a local rearch with regard to Anne Reilly (O'Reilly) Born circa 20th. November 1867 in Ballynacally, Co. Clare, Ireland.She married John Xavier from Harrigton, England.I wonder has anybody acces to English Records Census etc. Many thanks in advance. Larry.

Larry,       I just GOOGLED English census records and found data for my family.  The census started, I think 1841.  I was able to track them to 1911, but could have continued.  My g g grandfather was a coach maker.  I felt that since he expired and his son continued on but had moved.  With automobiles coming soon into the picture, figured those ancestors who were wheel wrights and carriage makers may have change occupations.  So many with same name made it kinda difficult to track.  Will do it someday when I have the time.       However, they are free and on line.

Not unheard of. In 1860 Co. Monaghan, my grgrandmother was about 16 when she married my 30-year-old grgrandfather. (I have a general idea of her age because she had her 13th child 30 years after her wedding!) Diane

I think my Nestors would have been buried in Drumcliff cemetery. That is, if they existed at all and are not just figments of my imagination. Which sometimes I think they must be.

I have just uploaded some more Royal Irish Constabulary records. These cover men who joined between June to November 1853. They were natives of Clare. I have included where they were sent because RIC members did not stay in their home counties as a rule.
