Free Photo Restoration & Date Old Photographs / Gleeson Family Please date if possible
« on: Wednesday 15 July 20 16:05 BST (UK) »
This was found among family photos so I've no idea who they family are.
I assume that the photo was taken in the USA. What age is the father?
Many thanks for any assistance.

Thanks Margaret for responding.
Would you believe it, MyHeritage replied today!
The last tracking date was 11 December on DHL but now the kits have arrived at destination country:). Fingers crossed that the kits will be delivered soon.
Thanks again.

Ancestral Family Tree DNA Testing / Missing DNA Kits from MyHeritage
« on: Tuesday 02 January 18 11:53 GMT (UK) »
I ordered a number of kits at end of November. I was able to track the order on DHL from 5 December to 11 December but nothing further. Despite emails to support@myheritage.com and to DHL, I've been given no info on my order. DHL suggested contacting the vendor and MyHeritage replied with an automated ticket# for my inquiry.
There appears to be serious issues with MyHeritage and many complaints from reading the web. Any idea what should I do?

Kerry / Re: Thomas Fitzgerald born c1834 Tarbert
« on: Monday 14 January 13 12:10 GMT (UK) »
Thank you very much for your comprehensive reply, Shane.
Unlikely then, that I will get anywhere with the baptism records. The marriage record doesn't appear on any Australian index unfortunately. I have his wife's immigration record and she was single at that time so they must have married either NSW or Victoria (maybe they never married). As the family moved from Victoria to NZ and back to Sydney, there are many Thomas Fitzgerald deaths to check out but will try that route in any case. Many thanks for your help.

Kerry / Thomas Fitzgerald born c1834 Tarbert
« on: Sunday 13 January 13 20:35 GMT (UK) »
Hi,
I am looking for a Thomas Fitzgerald (RC) who lists his native place as Tarbert, Co. Limerick on his son's birth cert. in 1859 in Victoria. While I know that Tarbert is in Kerry but on the border with Limerick, maybe some of the townslands were in Co. Limerick back then. The Civil Parish seems to have been called Kilnaughtin. There is just 1 possible Thomas Fitzpatricks listed for Tarbert (Ballylongford) on the Irishgenealogy website, one in 1825. What would have been the closest Limerick parish to Tarbert?
Unfortunately, his marriage record of 1855 in Victoria could not be located.
Thanks

Apologies for not replying sooner and not explaining myself better.
The 1st Johanna was from Linfield and her father's name was Michael, probably the Michael that is on Griffiths. I have rather overlooked her as her direct descendants were researching her family. They have not been able to confirm how she was related to the 2 Kirby households on the Census.
The 2nd Johanna was from a nearby townland of Corelish whose father Maurice was deceased at the time of the wedding 1884 according to the Marriage Cert. There are no Kirbys on the Census for Corelish but a Kirby family was certainly there up to 1960s maybe.
Thanks.

Hi heywood,
I suspect that Philip Gleeson married into the Kirby property when he married the 1st Johanna as there were no Gleesons there for the Griffiths Valuation Records. Michael was her father.

Coolcam1,
Thanks but the family had no connection with Rathkeale.
Checking the birth records on Roots for the children of the 2nd Johanna, mother's name is recorded as Kirby, so that probably means that it is more than likely an error on the marriage certificate.
Which leaves the disappointing conclusion that I might not be able to locate Johanna's birth cert and discover her mother's name. Hopefully, I can locate something at the NLI
Thanks for your help.
