Title: Streete in Longford
Post by: Kerrill on Saturday 21 December 13 08:38 GMT (UK)
Have found a baptism for a child, the address is Streete Longford. Could anyone tell me where Streete is located in Longford?

Possibly a reference to the civil parish of Street in the east of the County, see here:

And in Longford, it covers both Counties.

Thanks very much for both of your swift replies, I am researching a Catholic family called Morrison (Francis and Anne nee Burrowes) if you have anything at all on there family I would be very grateful.

A RootsIreland website index search brings back 3 hits for parents Francis Morrison and Ann Burrowes in County Longford, Edward 1840, Patrick 1845, and Ann 1849.  A bit of trial and error on the index search indicates the parish / district to be Edgeworthstown (Roman Catholic).  The records themselves are pay to view, be aware that there might be little additional information in them.

Edited to add: Ah, you've got this info already http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php?topic=625110.0

Thanks Gaffy, that's the same family, have looked at them and guess that the Morrison's  in Streete are not mine.

That's right Gaffy, still searching but didn't think of putting all the past material on this as I am clutching at straws trying to find the rest of the family.
