Thomas Dowling, Doolan or Dooling
« on: Thursday 12 December 13 16:08 GMT (UK) »
I have previously tried to get a birth confirmation for my g. grandfather Thomas Dowling on Roots chat, but without much success. I visited the National archives in Dublin and spent 2 days going through the micro fiches of all the areas around Baltinglass. One of them showing the parish records was almost a blank because the ink had faded completely. I recon this could have been the one with his details
Thomas joined the Irish Constabulary in 1851 and was sponsored by Sub Inspector Thompson at Baltinglass, so I believe he was resident somewhere close to Baltinglass. His daughter Mary Doolan was registered as born in Barraderry 3 Aug 1865.
Thomas served as a constable in Co. Galway until he moved to England.
Any help would be appreciated

No need to start yet another topic looking for the same person- both previous topics still here (with replies) and you can add to them rather than duplicating (or triplicating)-
