Hi, Julie, A quick look on www.clarelibrary.ie (click on "genealogy", click on 1855 Griffith's Valuation Surname Index, click on "F", click on the right alphabetized range) yields only one David Fitzgerald. I would work on that one for starters. Good luck! Jeanne Jules Harris <jhar9618@bigpond.net.au> wrote: Hi All I am trying to find out the birth, marriage, parent details on the above.

Hi, again, Julie, My apologies for a rather terse and incomplete answer. From the point where I left off, I would pursue the parish records for the townland of Cloghoolia, civil parish of Clonlea. I don't know anything about this area of Clare, as you yourself might not, so here's what I did: Went back to the "genealogy" page and looked at the lower right corner, clicking on "church records". This will open up to a long page that begins with a table of Church of Ireland parishes. If you scroll down, you'll see the RC parishes table. Clonlea's cells instructs one to look at Killuran, which gives the following: Civil Parish: Killuran RC Parish: O'Callaghan's Mills Diocese:KL Earliest Record: b.1.1835; m. 1.1835 Parish Address: The Parish Priest, O'Callaghan's Mills, Co. Clare Regarding the dates, this is very helpful, especially if there was a Hillery/Hillary family in the parish, too. A search of the 1855 Griffith's Val. Surname Index again, using Hellary, Hilary, Hillary, and Hillery doesn't yield one in that parish; however, it's possible that Margaret came from a different parish. If you have any indication of David's birth date, a request for a search of O'Callaghan's Mills' parish records may yield David's parents' names. Now, I'm through. :-) Jeanne Jeanne Foley Dwyer <socrates_399@yahoo.com> wrote: Hi, Julie, A quick look on www.clarelibrary.ie (click on "genealogy", click on 1855 Griffith's Valuation Surname Index, click on "F", click on the right alphabetized range) yields only one David Fitzgerald.
