Title: Parents of Catherine Warren of Co. Roscommon
Post by: ab196 on Monday 05 October 15 23:18 BST (UK)
I wonder if anyone can shed some light on a problem. I am trying to find the family of a Catherine Warren who was born about 1836 in Co. Roscommon and who married James McCormick from Co. Armagh. As James was in the 76th regiment some of the children were born in India. I had thought Catherine's parents were Thomas Warren and Mary Gallagher but this would seem to be wrong as that family travelled to America where they seemed to settle and that Catherine appears to have married someone else. I would be very grateful if anyone can help.

Earlier on the Antrim thread the surname Waring was mentioned as Catherine's maiden name-
I think this is the burial for Eliza Jane McCormick I posted the familysearch link to at reply #1 (daughter of James McCormick and Catherine Waring):

https://ssl.belfastcity.gov.uk/burialsearch/BurialRecordDetails.aspx?RecordID=4436.3650

Note the address in the burial record: "138 Great Georges Street"

Daughter Eliza Jane's birth registration also says Waring-

However, 1861 Scottish birth for Mary Ann says Warren-

Yes aghadowey I have tried several variations of name but have not yet had any success. The Antrim part of this couple had me confused and after thinking I was on the right path with Catherine's parents I realise that they were the wrong people. But I will keep on trying. Thanks to you and hallmark for your help.

Hi

Griffiths Valuation in Roscommon c. 1857-58 lists just three Warrens:-

James Warren, Turlaghnamaddy,   Tibohine Parish,   Roscommon
Thomas Warren, Rathmore,    Kiltrustan Parish, Roscommon
Patrick Warren,   Corgarrow,    Kiltrustan   Parish, Roscommon

Do you know Catherine's religion?

Regards

Hi

I know registers.nli are RC but does ab196 know whether her Catherine was RC? 

Having spent almost 25 years researching them, I've found nearly all Warrens in Ireland at that time were CoI. 

Cheers
