Cork / Sullivan's of Bantry
« on: Sunday 22 January 17 20:09 GMT (UK)  »
Looking to confirm that my great great grandparents John Sullivan and Margaret Mary Sullivan or Harrington?? were married in Bantry ca. 1865. They emigrated to U.S. shortly afterward, I would love to find a record of that as well. According to family history, John was born about 1843 son of Timothy Sullivan and Hannah Twomey. Margaret Mary Sullivan was the daughter of Cornelius Sullivan or Harrington and Mary Florence? Mary Florence b. 1820 also emigrated and died 1900, Rhode Island.

Thank you for your help! How difficult would it be to find their marriage record or Cornelius Sullivan and Mary F. Harrington's marriage record in/near Bantry?

So Margaret Mary's parents were Cornelius Sullivan and Mary Florence Harrington. I just found this:
Name   Margaret Sullivan
Gender   Female
Death Date   06 Aug 1922
Death Place   Rhode Island, United States
Age   78
Birth Date   1844
Marital Status   Married
Spouse's Name   John H. Sullivan
Father's Name   Cornelius Sullivan
Mother's Name   Mary Harrington

Sussex / Denis and Sheppard Family of Horsham and Eastbourne
« on: Sunday 22 January 17 19:43 GMT (UK)  »
Good afternoon.

My brick wall is the ancestors of Magdalen Denis Sheppard.I believe that Magdalen may have been French? She was born in 1703 in Horsham, her parents were Peter Denis, a barber, and Magdalen Ribboteau who married in 1702.

Any suggestions?

Sussex Lookup Requests / Chichester Record Request
« on: Sunday 28 June 15 21:02 BST (UK)  »
Hello,

I am in America but helping my British friend with his family history. He descends from:

Alfred Cook b. ca 1880, Chichester d. ? parents: unknown. Alfred married Emma/Emily Ryan b. ca. 1882, Chichester dau. of Thomas Henry Ryan and Fanny Smithers. I believe I found their marriage record in Midhurst, Sussex - 1910.

In 1911, I found them at 29 George St., Chichester. Married for one year. I know they had their first daughter, Kate, later that year.

Because Cook is such a common name it is difficult for me to find the correct Alfred Cook. I am hoping that someone in England can help steer me in the right direction in finding Alfred parents.

Thank you in advance for any help you can provide.

Sincerely,

Hope
