Marriage Records and/or Birth Records: McHugh

I would be very grateful if someone could check birth records to see if there is information regarding the parents names of Rose or Rosemary McHugh, born July 21, 1923 in Bawnboy.
And/or marriage records to get date of marriage and name of spouse:  reportedly she married
twice but I do not know the surnames.  I'm trying to determine if she had other brothers and/or sisters and/or children.  May have also joined a convent at some point but I do not have a date for that.  Thank you very kindly.

The online civil registration index goes up to 1958 so you can have a look for her birth and possible marriages. The index will give you the details needed to order the certificate(s).

Depending on when and where she died the death certificate might also provide details to confirm if you've found the correct birth or marriages.

Thank you for the excellent suggestion.  However, the name I was looking for did not show up there, so I would welcome additional suggestions.

If she was born in Bawnboy in 1920s she should be listed in the online civil registration index- there are several Roses (none Rosemary) but none that match that surname. So, are you sure of the details in your original post? does her death certificate give any useful information or have you not gotten that yet? Can you at least confirm that she is deceased?

Rather unusual that she might have married twice and possibly joined a convent.

How firm are you on the date of birth, what is it based on?  For example, there are these births:

https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/F1SX-5WL ('Event Date' given as Apr-Jun 1926, 'Registration Quarter and Year' given as Apr-Jun 1923)

https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/F1SV-9JD (Both 'Event Date' and 'Registration Quarter and Year' given as Jul - Sep 1926)

Rootschat isn't a forum for tracing living people so can you confirm that Rose/Rosemary is deceased? Is this for probate research by any chance?
