I just accessed the Waterford site and found 1 Margaret Foley in Newcastle (I did not know what Parish/District these 3 girls came from but did know the father's name and mother's first name) dau. of Patrick Foley and Catherine Connell that is in the date range I was researching within 1 year and paid to access the record. I tried to find her sister Catherine and while there is one in the date range, with father Patrick Foley and mother Catherine....the mother's maiden name is apparently not the same as it will none come up with her surname. Is it possible the surname is spelled incorrectly? Also, I cannot find the sister Anna at all - I also tried with the spelling Anne, Annie, any others I should try? So I am not too sure this Margaret is right either??? Hesitate to order the one for Catherine only to find out the mother is not the same Catherine Connell. Comments? Thanks.

Elaine, The name could be misspelled. I searched for my gg grandfather Philip Power of Tramore and used Edmund as his father's name and Honora for his mother and came up with nothing. When I changed the spelling to Edmond I got a hit. Honora didn't get any hits either, but Honor did. Seems like such minor spelling differences should have been cought by the search engine since they also search for variants, but they weren't. I don't think the records are complete yet even within parishes, none of Philip's siblings show up in any search.
