Can't find birth registration? Help wanted please.
« on: Saturday 24 October 15 00:14 BST (UK) »
Hi everyone. I have been looking through the birth registrations at the Irish Genealogy website, and found some of the children in a family I am researching but am having trouble finding my greatgrandmother's birth reg. and that of some siblings.
Maybe someone more adept will be able to see it, or explain why it could be missing.

The family is Joseph KIELY and Mary Ellen CLARKE (lived in Cooleeney, Moyne Parish, Tipperary in the registration district of Thurles. Neighbouring registration districts could be Cashel and Urlingford). (Have marriage cert.)
Children:
Thomas b.1894 (11452425) (in Army - don't know what happened to him?)
Eliza b.1896 (10570962) (d.1899 - can't find reg no.)
Michael b.1899 (9922289) (d.1965 have cert)
Catherine b.17 Dec 1899 (76705) (d.1938 have cert) (m.Thomas KING)
Bridget c.1901 (can't find reg no.) (BAPTIZED ON 29 JUN 1901 MOYNE) (d.in  Australia, m.William KELLY)
Johanna b.8 Oct 1902 (in reg REILLY 7162273) d.1902 (Q4 V3 P385)
Christopher  c.1904 (can't find reg no.) (d.England)
John b.7 Jun 1905 (427300) d.1929 (1406537)
Joseph b.17 Jan 1907 (in reg REILLY 668371) d.1907 (Q1 V3 P449)

Some of the dates come from the family headstone in Moyne cemetery.
Thanks, Katharine.

Give a man a record and you feed him for a day.
Teach a man to research, and you feed him for a lifetime.

Unfortunately the NLI parish registers do cover the time period I am looking at with this part of the family (mind you, I have been busily searching them for other family lines, and they certainly are a goldmine!!)

With civil registration index less is sometimes better  ;)

I put in first and last name then narrowed down results by birth year & death place-

Lizzie Kiely- https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:FT6M-6X3
Away sorting out DNA matches... I may be gone for some time many years!

Thanks for replies. Did note the various spellings! Even with those in mind and just doing a very blanket search of births in Thurles in the time period I am after I still can't find Bridget and Christopher.
Bridget was born and baptised on 29th of June, 1901 (I have a copy of her baptism certificate from Moyne).
Thanks for finding Lizzie's death. And yes, have census info. Katharine.

Just wondering where those birthdates came from Myluck?
