Also if its any help they lived in Mecklenburgh Street, in Dublin and most of the children were baptised in Pro-Cathedral
I think they way they did it was that the girls were baptised Catholic, and the boys COI, as Archibald was COI

Thanks to everyone who has posted
Sinann
The list you compiled is the list I have
James was my grandfather - he married Mary Plunkett from Killeigh, Co Offaly, which is where my mother was born
Strangely enough, one of the modern Allens, Benny married a girl from Tullamore as well

Hi Stapoji
Ive only just gotten these messages - dont know why, because Im still a member
Anyway, I think Iv already met Jean Stapleton at a reunion, and I guess there is only one Jean Stapleton?????
Ive also met Harry Allen and Elizabeth
My maiden name was Molloy
Sine I was on last I have'nt found out anything much, but I think Archibalds mother was Elizabeth Gethings, and Gethings owned a shop in Bray on the Florence Road, and the fact that Amelia (Millie) married a Collins from Castle |street, Bray sort of ties in, as in they were probably all couysins. Its Catherin (Archibalds wife) who is the biggest problem - we dont know who her parents were, so cant track her down.
Keep in touch
Maggie

Thank you so much for the info - it definitely matches with any info I have.
We had a family reunion a couple of weeks ago and it was great. Met my husbands cousins whohadnt been in touch for 50 years.
It was uncanny the likeness between him and one of the girls.
Am continuing the research, but its hard going.

Blimey
The penny has just dropped!!!
I'll have to investigate further, but the Mary Anne whom Ive been researching had a son named Henry in 1885.
He was listed on the 1901 census, but dont know what happened to him after that.
Now at least I can check the army records.

I now know what they mean when they say you cant see the wood for the trees!!
