Antrim / McAuley of Larne 1911 census
« on: Friday 03 November 17 00:37 GMT (UK)  »
Would anyone have family links to Daniel McAuley and Agnes McAuley (Brother and Sister) of Larne as detailed in the 1911 census..
http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1911/Antrim/Larne/St__John_s_Place__West/196544/

Agnes may have gone on to take the married name of Fleck by 1933 when I believe this Daniel and Agnes could have been the witnesses to my Mothers marriage at St Cedmas.

I'm looking into the possibility that the witnesses could have been related to my Mothers maiden name of Reynolds.

Thanks for any help.

Ireland / Suggestions please for orphaned family in Castlederg c1930
« on: Tuesday 31 October 17 23:57 GMT (UK)  »
My Mother told me she was born and raised on a farm in Castlederg in or around 1912 and I have the wedding certificate that shows she married a British soldier in Larne in 1933 with a given name of Sadie Reynolds.
As there is no connection whatsoever to the name Reynolds in Castlederg, it has been suggested to me that it may not have been her real name and I should not look too deeply as I may not like what I find.
I am the youngest son (now age 62) of her four children all raised in England where for whatever reason she hid details of her early life in Ireland very well.
I have hit a brick wall but I can't give this up as my children are asking about their Irish roots and I cannot tell them anything about the 6 brothers and sisters including twin girls, who were orphaned and then split up around 1930 and could have been sent anywhere around the world (possibly twin girls to Canada?).
Where do I go next ?

Tyrone / Mystery of my Mother as a Reynolds in Castlederg
« on: Friday 27 October 17 15:59 BST (UK)  »
I'm trying to find roots on my Mothers side and desperate to find any connection to the name Reynolds in or around Castlederg.
I have very little information on her life in Ireland and can only refer to her marriage certificate from 1933 when she lived in Cross Street, Larne with witnesses Daniel McAuley and Agnes Fleck at St Cedmas.
Sadie Reynolds, born 1912. Father William Reynolds (Farmer) believed to have been born and raised on a farm in Castlederg. Possibly eldest of six children including twin girls who were all split up maybe around 1928.
I'd be grateful for any leads or suggestions.
