I would like to locate entries for James Brien of Cooke Lane, Waterford, born 1887, and his wife, Margaret Brien, formerly Sheehan, born in 1904. They had four children, Margaret, Mary, Stacia and Michael. Margaret was born 1st March 1924 in Waterford. The children attended the Catholic school in Barrack Street, Waterford. There may be a discrepancy in the name Brien, as it appears it is sometime listed as O'Brien. (JUST TO MAKE LIFE EASIER). Thank you so much, kind regards, Phil Towe.

My ancestor John FLOWER, was stationed in Ireland between 1818 and 1828 while a trooper in the 2nd Dragoon Guards.  I know he married Brigette but not where - it could be France (follow-up to the Battle of Waterloo) or in Ireland.  They had a child, Catherine between 1818 and 1821 but I don't know where she was born as the regiment is listed as being at 'various stations' in the south and east of Ireland as well as Dublin.  Any records of the marriage and birth would be most welcome.  This would help to indicate whether I have an Irish ancestor

Nice site,

Ireland has been a difficult place for my research and sites like this are a big help.

So here is my 10cents worth.

Boland is my maiden name and my great grandfather was James Boland and my great grandmother was Mary (Doran) Boland. They were Catholic. They emigrated Ireland from Carrick-on-Suir, County Tipperary, in either 1842 or 1847 (depending if a 7 was mistaken for a 2). I have traced them to New Orleans, Louisiana, in 1847.  I have not found a ship's list with their names.  They had a small son, Thomas, and a small son, William, and possibly a daughter Margaret, born in Ireland.  I would like to find out if my great grandfather had siblings who also came to the U.S.

I have been researching my family tree for quite awhile and am trying to find where in Ireland my irish ancestors are from. There is some confusion as to whether it is Cork or Kerry. My great great grandmother was Margaret O'Connell Corbett. She was the daughter of Hellen or Ellen Shea and Denis O'Connell. She came over to the USA via Castle Garden, New York in 1870. Was born in 1867 in Ireland. So being a child I would think that she would have come over to the US with her parents but can't seem to locate them on any ship records. I have been unable to locate any birth, marriage or death records for Helen or Ellen Shea which I believe were Catholic as Margaret was Catholic and is buried in a Catholic cemetery in Ware, Massachusetts. Her parents were definitely born and married in Ireland and if I could find out exactly where, I would make huge progress. Margaret married a Patrick J Cobett in New York . He had come over in 1876 from Ireland and was the son of James J. Corbett and Ellen Margot. I can't find anything on either side.

I forgot the main reason for my comments below - I want to thank the team for all their hard work, research, photos, etc in Co. Wicklow, especially Joyce Tunstead, Yvonne Russell and Cara Toole.   You are an invaluable team - bless you.    Joyce Trueman

I am the grand-daughter of Mathew Nolan, the son of Michael Nolan and Bridget Murphy from Bagenalstown. Mathew married Mary Brennan in 1914 in Cleveland, Ohio USA. She was the daughter of Michael Nolan and Anna Landers. These are the people  whose records I am searching. As you can see, my married name is Feeney. My husbands grandfather was Martin Leo Feeney with ties to the Sligo area. I am happy to find this web-site.....many thanks

Christina:

Thank you very much for all the hard work that you have done on the Ireland genealogy project. Please pass on my thanks to George Armstrong who has transcribed the Turbid Church records. These are the records that I am most interested in. I was able to find what I think is my 4x great grandparents marriage record thanks to the work done by George, yourself and other volunteers. I was also able to find another possible daughter for this couple Arthur and Charlotte McEldowney. I knew of only the 5 children that were in Canada. Unfortunately I was not able to find the 5 children listed in the Turbid records. Maybe they were living elsewhere when they were born or baptized.

Thanks again for all your great work. I was very excited and happy when I found the marriage and birth records of this family. I have known they came from Northern Ireland somewhere and suspected Tyrone and this confirms it.
