Title: Annie Leddy - mother of Francis William Gienty 1899 Leitrim
Post by: dtcoulson on Saturday 01 May 21 10:03 BST (UK)
One of my distant relatives has a tree that lists the parents and grandparents of Francis William Gienty but I can't find any corroborating evidence of these people in Birth Marriage and Death files in Ancestry or FamilySearch.

Can someone help me find evidence of these people:
* Annie Leddy (said to be mother of Francis William Gienty born 1899)
* Bartholomew Leddy (said to be father of Annie)

Any help appreciated.
