John Broderick - Usk/Pontypool etc

[KGarrad]

Catholic or Protestant?

Try www.irishgenealogy.ie for Civil Registration and Anglican parish records.
Where it says:
The Indexes to Birth Records over 100 years, the Indexes to Marriage Records over 75 years and the Indexes to Death Records over 50 years are available to search on www.irishgenealogy.ie.

The Birth Records Indexes date from 1864 to 1914, the Marriage Records Indexes date from 1845 (1864 for Roman Catholic Marriages) to 1939 and the Death Records Indexes date from 1864 to 1964.

Try http://registers.nli.ie/ for images of Catholic registers (but no index).

In all cases it helps to know a parish, if not a townland.

I believe they were catholics. John Broderick in question married in a roman catholic church in Pontypool, so i'm assuming that his parents Patrick and Honorah who were from Ireland were also Catholic. Unfortunately in the census' they appear in in Wales their birth place is only listed as Ireland, nowhere specific. So I would be looking for a marriage record ideally for Patrick Broderick & Honora Hudnor.
