Hi,
I'm looking for information on my Great x3 grandfather, Edward Seberry (could also be spelt Siberry, like his son, or Sebary). I've linked the census that he is in, its the only one I was able to find with him in it. I've not been able to find him else where, I think he was born approx. 1822.

Thanks

There is a Henry Sibberry in Griffith's Valuation print date 1857 townland Cloonlogher, could be family, if nothing else gives you another spelling of Siberry.

Sarah
Can you just clarify exactly what you are looking for with regards to Edward ?!
Thanks

This looks like a match to Edward from the Census to the right area on the GV !

I was looking for things like a more exact date of birth, death and who he was married to and when they were married.
I think he was born approx. 1822 and was mentioned in the 1901 census, so died sometime after that.... His wife was dead by this point though as the census states he was a widower.
Thanks

Since there's more than one Edward Siberry (under various spellings) in the area- how are you sure the one in 1901 census is 'yours'?
The closest possible death for the Edward in 1901 census that I could find was registered Oct./Dec.1928 Manorhamilton district- index gave his age as 87 but it's not uncommon for ages in census and death records to be incorrect.

I'm sure that one is mine, as the rest of the people in the census are the people that are in my family.
Could it be then that, that record is for his death? Even though in the census he is 79 (born 1822), is it reasonable that they were 20 years out with his birth...?
