Margaret Twomey born Newry
« on: Tuesday 21 August 18 14:01 BST (UK) »
bit cheeky but here goes!
For some reason I can't get to the free records hosted online but Margaret Twomey (B 1911 Newry) does show up on FindMyPast.ie - would someone be happy to look her up and confirm her parents for me?

thanks in hopeful anticipation

thank you - for some reason I get a site certificate error, even when using the link you've posted?

I got that for a while yesterday but it was okay later, now I'm getting it again, very annoying.

Thanks everyone for all your help - much appreciated.
I knew about her parents but only because I knew about her brother - think that makes sense.

At the weekend got a snippet of info that he may have had a sister - Margaret - and now, thanks to you lot that's confirmed.

I've been looking for Johns birth (and his dads (Francis) marriage) for quite a while now with no luck - indeed I can't find any records of Francis at all.
There was a rumour of John serving in the forces so that's something else for me to follow up.

Thanks once again,
Bean

When you get the site certificate warning you can't do anything, no robot etc just an option to report it as a malicious site
