To be specific, i am looking for the records of 1) Patrick O'Donnell - Marlboro St College 1891-93. 2) Mary V. Sheil - Baggot St College 1892-93. Thanks, Mark O'Donnell

Does anyone know where i can get hold of college records in Dublin? Looking for info from the 1890s for my great grandparents. Mark

Hello Carolyn, I presume you have a marriage certificate for James and Mary Jane showing his fathers name and occupation as there are 32 James Doyle's on the IGI born Co Dublin in the time frame you are looking at so you need some way of cutting it down, also I have found that if the family were RC you should try to get a copy of the actual parish record of the marriage as it often gives extra information about the people involved.

Hi everyone, I am new to this list, and looking forward to meeting everyone. I am trying to research my husband's family tree, but although he comes from Cardiff, 3 of his grandparents were 1st, 2nd or 3rd generation immigrant Irish, which makes finding out things from here problematic. So we would welcome suggestions as to research possibilities over here, and also specifically, information on James DOYLE, b1864 in Co Dublin, m Mary Jane McCARTHY in South Glamorgan in 1895, and died not very long after the 1901 census, we think. I'm afraid we have no further information on him - he's just too far back for actual memory - but if anyone can tell us more we would be extremely. We do realise, though, that it may be like saying do you know John Smith in London! Thanks in advance, Carolyn

Hello to all. I am sorry if I seem to have upset some people on the list regarding Brian. I certainly did not mean to imply that I thought that Brian was dishonest or unreliable in any way. I was not aware that he was having email problems and I was just frustrated that I was not getting any replies to my emails. I assumed that he was maybe not interested in taking on my research and that is why I posted asking for help and guidance. When I asked for help in obtaining an honest and reliable researcher I was not having a dig at Brian because as mentioned no money or anything had even passed hands but I have been taken for a ride in the past when I have sent money to Ireland to a couple of researchers and have never heard from them again. Once again, sorry for offending anybody. Regards, Olive

Hello: I finally received a marriage record and am still looking for descendants of Thomas Laird, son of Thomas Laird (builder), of 5 Conyngham Road of Dublin. "Young" Thomas was a widower and a clerk when on July 9th, 1902, he married my great aunt Marion Hanlon, spinster and daughter of John Norman Hanlon ( farmer of Ballyduff, Kings County). They were married in Christ Church, Leeson Park. Thomas and Marion may have had children of their own also. Mary Anne Hanlon Smith gothic@acd.net Níl aon tinteán mar do thinteán féin.

Greetings All, I am reposting my request in the hope that sks may be able to suggest where I may be able to find information regarding my GG Grandfather WILLIAM TALBOT who emigrated from Ireland(he said he was from Dublin) to Sydney Australia.......around 1865. He married Catherine Creedon in September 1871 at St Mary's Cathedral in Sydney. They had 10 children. William John Talbot Born Sydney 1872 Died 1908 Alfred Ernest " " ' 1874 " 1875 Michael James " 1876 1941 Albert E " 1877 1920 Thomas Edward " 1879 Frederick Charles " 1881 1881 Joseph Bede " 1882 Winifred " 1885 Patrick " 1887 Bernard V ` 1890 1912 On some of the Birth registrations that I have for the above children William states he is from Dublin, His father is said to be Michael Talbot and mother Margaret Doyle Does anyone out there have any connections with these good people or any suggestions as to how or where I may go for information about my William. Thanks so much, Cheers, Ellen

Hi Listers I wonder if anyone can help me. My ancestor, Thomas McHENRY, is a real mystery-man. The first I know of him is that he married in Swan Hill New South Wales here in Australia, his first two children were born in Bendigo Victoria and his third in Beechworth - a Gold-mining town in Victoria. His marriage and death certs give the information that he was born in Dublin - County or City, I don't know - in approx 1820, his parents were William McHENRY and Mary KENNEDY and he spent his first seven years in Australia in New South Wales. Of course, that was a favourite sentence for transportation but I can't find him as a convict. I can't find how he arrived in Australia, and can trace no McHENRYs in any of Ireland. Does anyone have any ideas of how I should trace this family or make suggestions as to where to look. I have looked for this man for eight years and can't believe that a person can just appear out of the blue with no inkling of his origins. Any help would be much appreciated.

I never for one moment doubted Brian's integrity. When I first joined the list and asked for listers help, he unselfishly looked up names and addresses I had mentioned and gave me good advice for further research and over the last 18 months I have noticed his helpful advice to other listers, too.

Trouble is many people step forward mentioning names, and never think before they action. I have had a similar experience here in NZ...its an international site, and remarks like that are uncalled for.. Keep your pekka up we are not all like that.. Life is full of volunteers, some get paid some don't.. but we are all hear to help one another. So if it doesnt work out for you, don't spill out on the site thank you.. we can all experience bad computer times... where it doesnt work for some reason or another, so next time, get the persons snail mail address for back up...as there may be a logical reason he/she cannot make contact with you.

In Thoms Directory 1919 there is a James Francis living at 4 New Row South.The next house is No.5 and then Lauderdale Terrace starts so he is not on Lauderdale Terracein 1919 No doubt he just moved down the road sometime after that.It's all New Row South either way but it might help to be pedantic.

I cannot contradict her when she says I agreed to work for her because I simply can't remember but if she refers to my emails to her at the time she will remember I did actually tell her that I did not feel comfortable about doing this work for her for specific reasons which I won't go into here. That apart, the reason her emails to me did not receive a reply at the time is because I did not get them, nor did I get any newsgroup posts and that happened because my email server was deemed to be a bulk mail sender by spamcop, which of course is nonesense as I would'nt reply to more than 10 people in any week...if even that. It is my understanding that Rootsweb itself had a similar problem with spamcop at the time as did many innocent people. It took me some time to set up an alternative temporary email account after which I admittedly did not try to re-contact Olive mainly because I was'nt happy about it doing it either way. To all intents and purposes I was technically if not actually unsubscribed and my email address rendered inactive by this spamcop lot. The list Administrator, Anthony, can confirm that I was having technical trouble at this time as he kindly emailed me about it. At the time,Olives emails were not being ignored, they were just not being received and this problem persisted for many weeks. Happily no one suffered any loss, financial or otherwise.It was merely inconvenient. I wish Olive every success in her search for another reliable honest researcher. Replies off-list only please.

Hi all, A few months ago I posted a message to the list regarding research for Breen/Duffy, Dublin and had a reply from Brian. We agreed that he would do some research for me and I was awaiting his instructions regarding payment etc. After many emails to his address I still have not had another reply so I may have to give up on Brian. Does anyone know an honest, reliable researcher with reasonable charges? Olive Bandy Perth, Western Australia
