Mother and I, Mablethorpe, 1955
Dolan Family
« on: Sunday 30 March 08 21:21 UTC (UK) »
Can anyone help me with the family of Francis Dolan,born 1819, and Mary Lee, born 1825 in Leitrim.
I have them getting married in 1845, in Manorhamilton, then having 7 children. It is where the children were born that I am trying to establish. I have them all being born in Ireland according to other family trees, but with no exact place, just Ireland.
My problem is, I also have the eldest child, Patrick, being baptised in Markle, Prestonkirk in 1847. I know the family did move to Haddington, in Scotland, but don't know when. I was wondering if the children were all actually born on Haddington, not in Ireland? So we have;-

Francis Dolan, Born1819, baptised Drumnafinnila Barr
Mary Lee, born1825, Leitrim

Children;-

Patrick Dolan, born1847
Bridget Dolan, born1849
Myles Dolan, born1851,
Hugh Dolan, born1857
John Dolan, born1859,
Margaret Dolan,born1861
Catherine Dolan, born1854

If anyone can find any information, either on cencuses, or of the children's births being in Ireland, I would be very grateful.
  Thanks, Pat.

As civil registration of births in Ireland began in 1864 there will be no birth certificates (if they were born in Ireland).
What you need to do is to check Scottish census records to see where they listed as their birthplaces (and be prepared for inconsistencies) but since you have a baptism for one of the children in 1847 in Scotland I suspect the children were born in Scotland.

Consider spending a small sum of cash on Scotlandspeople

for £6 sterling you can search for a couple of those births.
