I also came across a Fryer headstone at Old Church cemetery in Cobh (formerly Queenstown).

I don't have any connection to Fryers.Liberty

Link for Civil Registration Indexes.

Registration of Births and Deaths commenced in 1864.   Non Catholic Marriages from 1845.  In the early years of compulsory registration, many events still were not recorded.

What religious denomination were they?

I haven't had any luck tracking these peoples on the indexes. All people were Church of Ireland except for Celia Freyer who stayed Catholic for her whole life and is apparently buried in the Catholic Cemetry somewhere near Clifden.

I am looking for some information on Peter Johnson Freyer (born 1795) and some family members of his. This gentleman is not to be confused with his grandson Sir Peter Johnson Freyer who was born and raised in Galway.

After retiring as a chief officer in the Coast Guard, Peter settled in Clifden in about 1851 after the death of his first wife.

My questions are as follows:
1. When and where did Peter die? I can't find any online records of his death and I know he lived to at least 1867 when he was living in Sallerna.

2. He married Maria Louisa Bodkin in 1852 but she must have died soon after as he married again in 1856 to Mary Penner. I can't find any online records of their deaths or whether they had any children. He married Mary Penner in Aughavaul, Mayo, so they may have lived there for a while.

3. Celia Freyer (nee Burke) was the wife of Samuel Freyer and was born around 1833 and was still alive in 1920 as she was receiving an allowance from her son Sir Peter Johnson Freyer. Unfortunately I cannot find any record of her death. Her last known whereabouts was Cloughacurra.

I hope someone can help me find some of this missing information from my family tree.

This is indeed the correct arrival information. Timothy and "Anne Lucinda Freyer" were married at St.Thomas, Liverpool, UK on 17 Aug 1851. George was born in the UK and the couple went on to have 5 more children. I hope this helps, although this thread is very old now.
