I'm in a pickle! I looked at the form that i have to complete for a copy of my fathers (Richard Kavanagh) birth entry in Dublin 1932, and i have to give my grandmothers name. The reason i want my fathers birth details is so that i can find out my grandparents names!!

I only have my fathers name and full date of birth and know that he was born in Dublin, but as i can't supply his mothers name then the registrar office will return my application . 

What do i do now?
 
Is there any other way that i could get the extract that i want?? I can't get to Ireland either.

I want to make a start on my Kavanagh family tree and before i get going i have already hit a brick wall!!

Yours desperately

If someone could spare the time I really would be grateful for a lookup in Bloomsbury for James Kilroy and his wife Honour and son William.
Im desperate to know the birth place of James Kilroy as im pretty sure its not England but really need to know what was on the 1861 census to confirm this.
James' age at the time of the 1861 census is disputable because when he married in 1853 he was said to be 30yrs putting his year of birth at c.1823,but when he died in 1871 his age was 56 yrs this pushed his birth year back to c.1815. so in 1861 he could be either 38 or 46  .
What I do know for certain is that:
Honor/Honour Kilroy would be 29/30 yrs old, born c.1832 in Barrow Suffolk
William Kilroy would be 1/2 yrs, born c.1859 in Barrow, Suffolk

Bloomsbury district is where the family settled after relocating from Barrow sometime between 1859 and 1862 where their next child was born and they where still in bloomsbury up until James' death in 1871.

The only help I can give you as to whereabouts in Bloomsbury they might be living in 1861 is in St George/St Giles area, as this is where their second child Elijah was born.

Any help is appreciated.

Please could someone look up Little Lever please to find families of the surname Vallentine.
In Particular Im interested in the family of Mary Vallentine, aged 19-20 years old in 1861, she was born in Little Lever. I am trying to find her immediate family.

I am looking for James Kilroy who was a soldier in the 61st Regiment of Foot battalion during the mid 1800's but unfortunately I do not know where the battalion was stationed in 1851, so this is a long shot but if anyone comes across the regiment in Essex 1851 census please please could you leave a message for me!! I would be very grateful
James Kilroy married in 1853 in Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk but a search has not found him in Suffolk during 1851, whence my asking here for help.

Thanks
