« on: Thursday 01 April 21 13:57 BST (UK) »
Hello,
I have a part brick wall. I'm looking for the mother's name of my great great grandfather John Dowd and possibly any siblings he had.
He was born in Roscommon around 1837-1842 - his father on his marriage record to Catherine Tansey is listed as Patrick Dowd, a Labourer. On the 1901 census he is listed as being 63 years of age, making him born in 1838/9 & on his death record in 1909 he is listed as being 67 years of age making him born in 1841/42. He served in the 14th foot regiment, his pension record below
Pension record
John Dowd 42 yrs born abt 1837
Birth Place:Bogle, Roscommon
Pension Admission or Examination Date: 11 Feb 1879
Regiment: 14 Foot
Rank: Sargeant
Regimental Number: 1483
Bogle is likely to actually be Boyle.
