Catherine Hines or Hinds born 1820's or 1830s
« on: Saturday 05 January 08 02:10 UTC (UK) »
I'm looking for information on Catherine Hines or Hinds (she spelt it both ways during her life.

Born in Ireland she moved to Yorkshire in the late 1840s.

She gave various details in the UK censuses:

1851 Census - said she was born in Ireland in 1828
1861 Census - said she was born in Cork in 1833
1871 Census - said she was born in Ireland in 1828
1881 Census - said she was born in Queens County (Laois) in 1835

In the 1851 census she was living with a Sarah L Bowes (aged 60) and Elisha Bowes (aged 23 her daughter) also from Ireland

Any connections out there?

Thanks

Hello Tyke,

There are three items you require when searching for Irish ancestors.

1. Denomination.
2. Parish
3. Townland.

You'll have to rely on Church records as civil registration in Ireland was not introduced until 1864. Non Catholic marriages were registered from 1845 onwards. When registration for BDMS started in 1864 some people didn't bother with the registration for a few years after that date. Keep your fingers crossed that church records still exist.
