Family History Beginners Board / How accurate is the GRO?
« on: Sunday 03 April 05 18:23 BST (UK)  »
How accurate is the early GRO, 1837-1845? I have found  John Comery born 1844 , Mansfield, on the 1901,1891, 1881(spelled Comeny), and 1871 but I cannot find him on the GRO for his birth.

His father John Comery born 1815, Mansfield, is on the 1841 census in his fathers house hold and by the 1861 census has left his fathers household but I can't find the marriage on the GRO. I expected it to be 1841-1844 and searched 1837-1847 but I couldn't find it.

In both cases I looked up variations of the spelling. Am I going mad, is the GRO not accurate or is there something obvious I have missed?

Dublin / Dublin, Ireland
« on: Sunday 03 April 05 17:59 BST (UK)  »
I have used the Ireland-Dublin board already which of course is very good but the data for Ireland in general online is very sparse due to the 1922 fire.

Do you experts know of more links or other ways around getting information. I was thinking about the local LDS family research centre. I managed to get Griffiths valuation online but that is too early as I only have my husbands grandparents names, both Dublin and born about 1900 and his mothers and 1 Aunts birth certs from 1926 and 1932.

I think if I can get 1 more generation back I will then be OK for earlier data. Any suggestions will be great. I live in England.

Is there an easy way to search to see others members interests, names and locations, to see if anyone is searching the same families as me?

Lincolnshire / Lincs geography: Timberland,Thorpe Tilney etc
« on: Monday 28 March 05 20:09 BST (UK)  »
I am researching the King family:

William 1844/46 and Elizabeth 1849?

They had Mary 1870 (My greatgrandmother) and Sara, Clara, Herbert, Esther, John, Frank, Kate and Joseph.

William was a farm foreman and the address for 1881 and 1891 is Thorpe Tilney Fen. I also have the 1871 census which says they lived in Martin. The census gives varying places of birth, Timberland, Thorpe Tilney Fen, Martin, Dyke and Bourn. Are these all close by and are they variations of the same place or am I getting census errors or mixing families.

Any help appreciated.

Dublin / Birth and marriage look up please
« on: Monday 28 March 05 19:53 BST (UK)  »
Edward Duffy and Annie Geraghty were both born around 1900 in Dublin. Between 1920 and 1932 they had 6 children. Annie died in the 1930s.  I have 2 addresses:

    1926 - 26 Millmount Cottages, Dundrum
    1932 - 116 Summerhill, Dublin

Any information on their births or their marriage would be great. Also if these 2 addresses still exist.
