Thanks Hallmark . Been scrolling through records ,and can`t find a match at the moment .Now I know how to use it I can take my time and search other counties . Just can`t pinpoint an exact match when you don`t know the place where they were born . All the census certs just say `Ireland `in Scotland ,why did none of them know exactly where they were born ? Patrick b 1856 couldn`t write ,just made his mark on the children`s birth certs , only the last one ,my grandfather has his actual signature on it . I did find one record for a marriage between a Patrick O`brien and Helen Maloney but it was a few years after Patrick b 1856 was born ,in 1865 ,Limerick . I think it was common for couples sometimes to wait a few years when they could afford it ,but have children anyway . But 9 years after ?
Will plod on . It is very good of you and Sinann to take the trouble ,I know how time consuming it can be .
Thanks
