Bell / Dalton Sligo

[Jaynekb]

Trying to trace parents of James Bell born Sligo. James was born November around 1929. Mother nee Dalton. Father from Scotland.

This could be the birth registration for your James Bell in 1930:

And a possible brother Paul in 1932

Yes, I have seen this record but it only gives the mother's maiden name.

I have never delved deeply into Irish records myself, but I am assuming you would be able to order the birth certificate on the basis of the information there. That would give you more information about the parents. Maybe someone else who is more familiar with Irish research can tell you how to buy the certificate.

I have just ordered birth cert on line. Thanks.

Would be great if I could find a marriage entry.

If you don't have any luck trying to find a marriage in Ireland it may also be worth trying Scotland if one of the parties was Scottish. www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk is the best place to search for BMDs in Scotland. It is a pay as you go site using credits, but if you filter your searches you can get quite a lot of useful information without having to pay.

Why not post more of the information that you already know?

Hallmark, I get the impression that Jaynekb is fairly new to Rootschat and still figuring out the best way to navigate the site and ask questions. I don't feel my time has been wasted in responding to her post.
