If you haven't already, try birth, marriage or death certificates for their children. For my family (gg grandparents), on one of their children's death certificates in WI, it told where the parents were born in Ireland. We had already known Co Tipperary, but this verified a specific location that gave specific places to look. Then I found baptismal records for 11 out of their 13 grandchildren - all because of what it said on this child's death certificate.

I know it's a fairly common name. All I know is my ggm, Mary Taggart, was born in Ireland about 1842, parents: John Taggart and Bridget Quinn., came to NY around 1860, married John McNulty about 1871, lived in Brooklyn. For the longest time I thought a John and Bridget Taggart who lived in Manhattan were her parents but then found out they're not. > Anna Caulfield > > > > --- On Wed, 6/16/10, Pat O'Fallon<cdro@att.net> wrote: > > > From: Pat O'Fallon<cdro@att.net> > Subject: [NY-IRISH] Scotland/Ireland departures/arrivals list > To: ny-irish@rootsweb.com > Date: Wednesday, June 16, 2010, 5:38 PM > > > Thanks all for the help. What I am trying to find is when my Taggart side of the family came to Ireland from Scotland. I was told to look at the departures/arrivals from Glasgow to Londonderry. I can trace back to 1833 Upper Cumber, Londonderry when my gggrandparents got married. But this is as far as I can go without knowing which/when the Taggarts came to Ireland.

somebody asked: >    Does anyone know where a central New York State (for all counties) registry of marriages from the 1880s might be located?  I don't know if my grandparents were married in NYC, Nassau or Suffolk on Long Island and I need this certificate.   Have you tried the indexes at http://www.germangenealogygroup.com  ?  Very useful!

Some general information: New York State did not mandate civil registration for births and marriages until 1880. Most counties did not fully comply till early 1900s, however. I have been to Albany a number of times to view the indexes (on microfilm by year and occasion). Many early records just don't exist for the first 10-20 years. The indexes are not on line anywhere. But they are in a few places in the state, like Buffalo and NYC, check the state's archives website for full info. http://www.archives.nysed.gov/a/research/res_topics_gen_vitalstats.shtml The NYS records, however, didn't include NYC and some towns like Yonkers, Albany and Buffalo aren't included in the early records before 1914, again check the NYS Health Dept website. http://www.nyhealth.gov/vital_records/genealogy.htm New York City, Manhattan registration for births and marriage started in 1847 and deaths in 1795, for Brooklyn 1866 for births and marriages, deaths 1847, for Bronx, Queens and Staten Island most records start in 1898. These dates vary and have gaps, check the archives website for more exact dates.
