Wondering if anyone can help with my family tree.
Julia Webb who married John joseph liggett 4th December 1909 in seagoe.
Am trying to find their children and Julia's brothers and sisters families please.
Any help would be greatly appreciated

This seems like them and Maud their daughter in 1911 http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/reels/nai001593058/

Potentially his parents and siblings http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/reels/nai001592749/ and maybe her mother and sibling who were living in the same street as the Liggett parents http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/reels/nai001592747/

Only children I can see up to 1916 were Maude born 25.7.1910, Samuel born 23.6.1913 and Mary 12.9.1916. Children born after that are not on-line. You need to go to PRONI or GRONI to view them.
Julia in the 1901 census with her parents and siblings:

Julia’s mother in 1911. Note that Julia was one of 11 children, 7 of whom were still alive in 1911.
