Laois (Queens) / Connolly family Portarlington, Eire
« on: Tuesday 14 January 14 22:18 GMT (UK) »
Hi RootsChat folk,
I am just starting to search my Irish father's family with little to go on and would like any advice on Irish online resources and any knowledge of what I might be able to find on a trip to Portarlington later this year.
My father was Christopher Connolly born 1912 ( so just missed 1911 census!). I think I might have found his family in 1911 census as search of Irish national records did not produce many Connolly's in the area - so Thomas and Mary Connolly and their 6 children may be the family.
Any thoughts welcomed.
Prine
