Meath / reilly family of castletown kilberry
« on: Tuesday 28 August 07 20:38 BST (UK)  »
Hi ,
Wondering if anybody can help to trace the Reilly family of Castletown Kilberry Co Meath.
They lived there in the late 1800's, The birth certificates and marriage licence state that William was a farmer / land agent. His wife was Clare and they had three children Alice, Born 9th .04 . 1869  Josephine Born 2nd .04 1871 and James Joseph Born 11th .05 1875.
Any help or suggestions would be much appreciated. Thank you Cosmo

hi,  Could any body throw some light on " The County Officer of Exise in the said County of Longford" as my gt gt grandfather was termed in his marriage settlement of 1837.
He was from Roscommon and returned there by 1845, any suggestions where I might findout about the job? was it only  about taxes and duties  or was it a fore runner to the police as has been implied to me,
