Ireland / Re: Reilly Ancestors - Please can anyone help?
« on: Tuesday 19 August 14 00:13 BST (UK) »
Hi Tara,
I have two census entries for Ann one with Alice in 1871 and then the 1881 where Ann is living with Mary and these both state that she was born in Edinburgh. Whereas all the paperwork I have for Mary does state that she was born in Ireland about 1845.
I have use scotlandspeople to search for a death of Con, searching between 1851-1871 I haven't been able to find a death for him. I have also tried to see if I could find Con, Alice and the children in the 1861 census, as I though that if Annie was born in Edinburgh then they might have been in the census but haven't found a match there either.
Thank you for your advice, I will draw up a timeline and trace my steps.
Thanks
Katie

Thank you Tara for your help.
I've not been able to find a maiden name for Alice and looking back in my paper work, I have found Ann living with Mary and her family in the 1881 census and it actually states Ann was born in Edinburgh, so that is an error on my part. I've tried to find a birth for her in Scotland but haven't been successful.
I did find John Reilly on the FamilySearch website, however having gone back on there to retrace my information, I haven't been able to find anything.
I don't seem to be doing too well with all this.

Hi,
Thank you for your replies to my post.
I cannot remember where I found the Cork connection, I'm not sure if it was from a notification on Ancestry. - I think it was a tree notification, so this could be wrong.
I got Alison's name from Ann's marriage, although the information on Mary's marriage and death it looks like it could be Alice.
On Mary's marriage Cornelius is down as a general labourer, on her death he is listed just as a labourer and on Ann's marriage he is listed as being a farmer labourer.
I'm trying to upload the documents I have but it is saying my files are too large.

Ireland / Reilly Ancestors - Please can anyone help?
« on: Sunday 17 August 14 23:50 BST (UK) »
Apologies if I'm posting in the wrong section.
I am seeking a bit of help, and also wondering if there is anyone else who may have or maybe looking for information on a Cornelius Reilly (not sure if the Reilly spelling is correct).
Cornelius, was the father of my 2nd Great Grandmother Mary Reilly, she was born I think about 1845 in Co. Cork. Mary married John Robertson in Edinburgh, Scotland in 1867. I have found Mary's mother, I think as an Alison Reilly who was also born in Ireland but died in Edinburgh.
As well as Mary; Cornelius and Alison had two other children John born about 1848 and Annie born in Ireland in 1852 - Annie married a Thomas Whellan, in Edinburgh.
I am struggling to find any information on both Cornelius and Alison, so any information would be greatly appreciated.
Many Thanks,
Katie

Hi,
I'm not really sure if I am looking in the correct area or where to look for information, really. I'm trying to help my bother-in-law find out some more information on his dad's family.
The information we have already is pretty sketchy. All he knows is that his dad was a fairground worker called Keith Valentine(or could be Valentyne) who came from Montrose, in Scotland. Keith will be roughly 51/52 now and came to work in West Yorkshire on the fairground in the summer of 1975.
If anyone could please help with any information, that would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Katie
