Maher family from Ballinstick. PATRICK MAHER married JUDITH GUILFOYLE on 12th October 1863
[I think, but am not sure , Judith Guilfoyle (Guilfoil, Kilfoyle) was born 11th December 1840 in Freshford.{ spelling can vary}
Her parents Michael Guilfoil and Catherine Walsh]
They had a family of eleven.
Bridget who was born 14-11-1863.
Patrick who was born 08-06-1865.
Mary. (Patrick's twin)08-06-1865.
Catherine.who was born 28-01-1868.
Ellen. who was born.19-06-1869.
Johanna. who was born 10-06-1871.
Margaret. who was born 03-06-1873.
William . who was born 30-06-1874.
Ann. . who was born 02-12-1876.
Rose. . who was born 12-06-1879.
Elizabeth.who was born 12-06-1879.
Rose and Elizabeth also twins.
( IT IS POSSIBLE THAT THESE DATES ARE BAPTISMAL DATES AND NOT BIRTHDATES AS THE INFORMATION WAS RECEIVED FROM CHURCH RECORDS )
Bridget Maher was my Great Grandmother. I am interested in finding some information on her mother JUDITH GUILFOYLE. (my great,great grandmother).
Anne Maher (02/12/1876 ) married ... ? .. St. John.
This picture of Rose Maher, (my great grand aunt) , standing at the front door of a house with a small child of maybe 2/3years at her side. It could have been taken from about 1929 onwards (just guessing)

It has been quite a long time since I checked this post.. I somehow lost interest in researching family roots. So here goes, I thought I should give it another try to fill in the gaps. So if there is anybody out there who think that they might have connections to the Maher family,of Ballinonty, or Ballnistick whose names and dates of birth(baptisimal) which I have allready posted .. :) :)
Thank you.
Aislinn.

Civil registration of births started 1864 so you should be able to find birth certificates for all but eldest child to determine exact date and see if certificates show any other useful details-

This appears to be Johanna with a son William who is the right age

Looking at the 1911 census for William he has a niece Josie Holohan who i think is Johanna Houilahan born to Sylvester Houilahan and Bridget Maher
