Tipperary / Parish of Lattin: Mohide, Kelly & Lynch
« on: Wednesday 09 March 16 10:13 GMT (UK)  »
I'm looking for the birth of a John Mohide and his sister Anne Mohide between about 1897 and 1899. They may have been twins. Their mother, Catherine Mohide may not have been married at the time of the birth of John and/or Anne. There is a civil record of the birth of an Anne Mohide in 1897 and I've ordered a copy to check whether it is the correct person. However, I've no trace whatsoever of John. John may have been baptised / registered under a different surname. He had the Mohide surname in later life when he moved to Liverpool - he died there in 1970. I understand that he served in the British Army in WW1 but can find no record.  I know that their mother Catherine Mohide married a Patrick Kelly a few years later in 1901, and they had another child Patrick in 1902, but I don't know if she had been married previously.

Anne became known as Annie Kelly (and married James Lynch in 1920). She shows up in the 1911 census living in Shronell with parents Patrick and Kate, and brother Pat. However, the census makes no mention of her brother John and says that Patrick and Kate had been married for 14 years - clearly wrong if they only married in 1901. Unless I have the wrong family but I don't believe I do.

I believe that all of these events happened within the parish of Lattin. However, the RC parish records for Lattin Baptisms & Marriages only seem to cover from late 1846 to about January 1882. Where do I go for their parish records after that date? Is it worth the relatively expensive price to check out RootsIreland to see if their parish records cover beyond that date for Lattin?

I'd really appreciate any light that can be thrown on any of the above.

Thanks,
Eric
