Title: Galvin/Galway
Post by: marrle on Tuesday 18 February 20 11:39 GMT (UK)

Hello ,
This might be a very long shot but according to various UK census my Galvin family are from Galway, I have the Catholic Registers at the NLI but trying to find where the Galvins are more prevalent in Galway is a hard task for me (poor eye sight)

Can anyone narrow it down to at least a few places for me to look

Although they hail various years one Michael Galvin born c 1859 if anyone could find his Baptisms I would be very grateful.

Thanks Margie

Hallmark,

Thank you so much, should have explained all my Galvins are on various UK Census from 1841/1939
it really is the Baptisms I need or at least a clue as to which place in Galway they come from
