kilkenny birth search
« on: Thursday 12 March 15 13:13 GMT (UK) »
 :( I am searching for the birth cert of both Rebecca shaw and her brother Henry born Kilkenny 1887/89 Their father was a Henry Shaw. There are navy records in Britain which states henry as being born January 1888 in Kilkenny but does not state if this was town of Kilkenny or county. In the 1911 census in Britain Rebecca is stated as being 22 years of age. I would be very grateful if I could find the birth cet of one or both for the stated period in Kilkenny 18887/89. Thanks.

Hi

I took a look at the Civil registrations and the 1901 Irish census can not find either Rebecca or Henry in either, did the family move to England prior to 1901?
