Cork / Birth/Bapt for Margaret Gertrude Regan or O'Regan born 27.4.1872 Passage West
« on: Tuesday 07 November 17 00:14 GMT (UK) »
Hi
My husbands maternal grandmother's birthdate has just been found on the 1939 register - 27.4.1872.
She married James Leonard Thompson in February 1898 as Maggie Gertrude Regan - father Patrick occ farmer (deceased). 1901 entry shows her as Maggie G
1911 - birthplace is Passage West County Cork and she is Margaret
1939 register - Margaret 1957 death - Margaret
My husband says she was O'Regan but dropped the O' when she came to England. There is no proof of this.
The family were Roman Catholic but I cannot match her birthdate to any baptisms online.
Can any baptism be found? If not - is it possible to pay the Irish GRO for a search of birth registrations using the info I have?
FS has a birth entry for a Margaret O Regan in Cork 1872 but no quarter is shown and I don't know whether the O is actually a middle name or a mistranscription
