CUSACK

[tmp48]

Just to confirm some more information about Anthony Cusack born 11 July 1879 at Sraheen was registered in the District of Islandeady.

The website below is free to search for this sort of information in Ireland.

Sraheen was a townland in the parish of Aghagower

Islandeady, County is 10.5 miles (16.9 Km) NE of Sraheen, County Mayo. This is measured directly between the two points 'as the crow flies' ignoring any geographical features such as rivers or hills.

I still find it strange that he appears in the church baptism register before his registered birth date

Maybe that child died.  It's very common to give another child the same name afterwards too.

From my own experience my Gt Grandparents in Dublin had a lot of children that died but I only ever found a Death Certificate for one of them. I've found a few Baptisms for some that never survived but not all.

I have just found another Anthony Cusack born 29 Jan 1879

Father Patrick  Cusack Mother Catherine Lally.

All of the children's Birth Certificates I've found for John Cusack & Ann Mungan were born in Sraheen, Registration District of Islandeady.

Where did you find the Baptism 's for Anthony & Thomas Cusack? Thomas Cusack I have was born 1st April 1878.
