Most records for them probably aren;t in Dublin..... have you checked Walt Disney's Pedigree??  D'assigny should be on it.

Why not in Dublin? Where should I be looking?

I'm familiar with Walt Disney's Irish family. Despite Disney being an unusual name, there are at least four separate Disney families with completely different origins. The D'Assigny family (antecedents of my Disney line) is a separate family from Walt Disney's researched line.

Was another name on the Disney Pedigree I was looking at, rather than Disney.

If you could be less cryptic and actually tell me what you are getting at, that would be very helpful.

Just saying I'm not all that familiar with Disney Pedigree...

Thank you for that article. My personal research shows that the genealogical information given is wrong (Fifield wasn't the son of Samuel; Samuel wasn't the son of Pierre; Pierre didn't have a daughter called Elizabeth; Pierre married three times; Marius was the son of his second wife). But the descriptions of Samuel and Fifield are interesting. There are also more "quotations" (not just from the newspaper), so there's more out there to find (but maybe only from Bro. Crawley's account - although he must have had sources).

You imply there is a particular name I should be looking at in Walt Disney's ancestry, other than Disney. I appreciate the other pieces of information you have found. If you think there is another line of investigation to follow, then that would be useful to know.

They married in England....

And both spent a longtime (and died) in Dublin. I was asking whether/what information I might be able to find in Irish records. You suggested Dublin is not the place to be looking. That seems like a deflection away from the obvious source area.

I am confused. Where should I be looking for information on their lives in Dublin, if not in Dublin?
