Hello :)
Mary Phelan m. Sampson Sharpe in 1887 and the marriage was registered in Trinity Without (Roman Catholic). However, when I put in her fathers name to be Denis/Denis into the search box as well..no matches come up. How sure are you of this?
Hope this helps somewhat.

died may 19th 1927 in New Zealand (husband was Robert Alexander)
Parents May have been Sylvester and Annie ( not 100% sure on this)
Would like confirmation on parents and any Siblings
Any assistance would be much appreciated

In the Shearmans 1839 directory of Waterford City I found a Sylvester Phelan, Grocer at 2 High Street. And in the 1821 Census of Waterford city there is a Sylvester Phelan age 27, described as a cousin of William Hearne , Grocer of 43 the Square, this is also the address of Sylvester. In the 1846 Slater directory Sylvester is described as a Grocer, tea dealer, and wine and spirit merchant at 2 High Street.
