Hi All.
Just uncovered a little more information on the mysterious Giles Family.
Michael Giles married in 1913, to whom it is not listed however it was between April & June and the marriage is listed in Gorey.
Also a death year of 1939 has now come up. Michael was 66 years old in 1939.
Should anyone come across something else please let me know. Thank you.

Thank you for the verification!
Yes that is her, Winifred Finn.
Now the question is did they have children?
Might there still be some Giles in Gorey related to me?
Michael would have been my Great Uncle?

Hi Biffbiff; i would assume that is the finns in Craanford; gorey, co. wexford. Giles and Finn would all have been from the local area.
I will ask around with my relations who live in Craanford and they might know who to ask. One of my own relations knows a lot of history of the families; she may know something.
If I find out anything I will let you know. Not sure if there is still giles still about.

 Hi Biffbiff,
My great granny was Winifred Finn married to Michael Giles, Ballyrahan. They had 3 daughters and a son- my Grandfather William (Bill).  My granddad married Mary Walsh from Arklow. They had 5 sons and a daughter. The oldest of their family is Michael..My father. The family moved to Co. Meath in the late 40's :)

I just saw this other post from you today!
I don't have much beyond Michaels's father William.
Do you have anything else?

Going by the way children were named those times I should be looking for a Michael and a Winafred . Cant find them . Can anyone help . Very grateful.  wexfordlady.
