Birth, Death, marriage certs Best Info
« on: Friday 11 March 05 01:14 UTC (UK) »
Hello I am very new at this so forgive me if I sound stupid Smiley What info is on birth/death records besides the the dates?
I have a ggranfather John J. Foley Birth b. 1868 who on his RIC police record put down only Co. Louth as his native county. I would like to be able to find out where in Louth and who his parents were but with no parish/townland I am at a loss.
He married a Margaret Campbell on the 25th Jul, 1893 --where I do not know.
Any advice or suggestions on how to approach this would be appreciated--Deirdre

Hi Deirdre,

Louth is  on the east edge of Lincoln Wolds. It sits between Cleethorpes and Mabelthorpe. If you go to 1837 online you can look  up the marriage and it will give you the town then you can send for the certificate.

I think I found your ancestor, Deirdre

John Joseph Foley born 13 July 1868 Louth, Ireland, Parents John Foley and Bridget Ellis. Doesn't say exactly where in Louth he was born in the index, but there is a Teresa Foley born in 1865 in Ardee, Louth to John Foley and Bridget Ellis. It looks as though your ancestor may have been from Ardee, Louth.

I got this information from www.familysearch.org

Thanks Mike  Grin I checked out the Ardee connection directly through the parish but sadly they have no records for him if she's his sister she may have be born there but the other children somewhere else?? I will keep looking but THANK you for checking
