Maguire, Shuttle Hill, Coleraine
« on: Sunday 19 March 17 17:01 GMT (UK) »
I am trying to find information about this family Maguire.
My grandfather Robert Maguire was born 01/10/1881 in Shuttle Hill, Coleraine.
Robert enlisted in the Royal Irish Fusiliers on 05-06/12/1898 at the age of 17.
His father was also named Robert and his mother’s name was Jane Maguire formerly Mc Donnell.  On their marriage certificate Robert and Jane are recorded as married in Shuttle Hill in 1872, he is listed as a servant and she is recorded as a spinner.  His father is Michael a mason and her father John Mc Donnell a labourer.
I cannot find this family on the census.
Any help would be appreciated.

I have just discovered in the 1831 census, three Maguire families living in Killowen street Coleraine.
Michael Maguires son Robert was married in1872.  I estimate this would make Michael about 45-50 in 1872.  His DOB would have been about 1822 give or take a few years. If I am correct it's likely that he was one of the children from three families listed on the 1831 census.  The children are not named on the census so is there any way I can make the link between Michael and these families?

Waterside would be in Killowen area- households of a William Maguire & a Margaret Maguire there-

John Maguire on this page- http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/reels/c19/007246492/007246492_00449.pdf
Not sure where you got Killowen Street from  :-\

R.C. registers for that area only start 1843 for baptisms- http://registers.nli.ie/parishes/0341

For reference- Robert's birth certificate (1881)- https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/birth_returns/births_1881/02808/2030540.pdf

Possible death for father Robert McGuire in 1898 Coleraine Workhouse (age 55 so born c1843)-

Thanks for that.
The Robert Maguire born 1881 and Robert Maguire born 1877 were brothers and Michael Maguires grandsons.
Their father who married Jane Mc Donnell was also named Robert.
I have a copy of Robert and Janes wedding certificate but not their birth or death certificates.

Civil registration of births started in 1864 so there will be no birth certificates for Robert and Jane. I have already posted 2 likely deaths for them.

Thanks again for that.
The death cert for Robert could well be his but without further evidence I cannot be sure.
The death cert for Jane is not the correct Jane.
There is an article in Northern Constitution 17/05/1890 and 14/04/1890 page 8 about Robert and Jane being fined for displaying their baskets for sale in an unapproved area. (They were basket makers ).
Therefore they were both alive in 1890.

Can't find a death registration for Jane (perhaps she died elsewhere). There are, however, more scanned vital records online since you started this thread and more to be added (supposed to be this month but there's a delay). For example, Robert & Jane's certificate is online as well as marriage for his brother Michael-
