Laois (Queens) / Re: Finding G/grandfather's family Rheen, Laois, Ireland
« on: Wednesday 14 February 18 03:15 GMT (UK)  »
My new relative tells me:
John Lawlor had possible John who had daughter Mary Lawlor born 1879 Maryborough
Then Mary born 1862 Maryborough married Cleall and lived in Dorset
Then Andrew (my ggfather) 1864-1866 Raheen or Lettonn Queens lived in New Malden Surrey
Possibly Catherine born 1868 Raheen Queens died 1957 New Jersey USA
Is Maryborough in Athy region?
I have been following wrong family of John and Bridget Lawlor of Tankardstown, because none if this fits.  Cannot find births before 1864, any suggestions? Thanks

Still not sure I am following right family of John Lawlor and Bridget Delany. Have by chance made contact with a previously unknown family member who says my Ggrandfather Andrew Lawlor had a sister Mary born 2/12/1862 Maryborough county. Cannot find any record of this. Any ideas ?

Oh, I really hope that is him, except, is Lettonn likely to be in the Athy region? Also, on his marriage cert. 1890 He said his father John Lawlor was dead, but the John Lawlor in this family in Tankardstown died in 1898. Also Mary Lawlor ..could be a sister, born about 1879 says her father is John, farmer also.
Thanks for your help, but I have doubts now

Andrew Lawlor's father was John Lawlor (farmer).  On Andrew's marriage certificate in 1890 it is noted John Lawlor, farmer, was deceased.  Andrew died in Surrey in 1932.
Have a relative Mary Lawlor, think born 1879, died 1949 in Victoria, Australia, and on her marriage certificate in 1912 in UK her father is noted as John Lawlor, farmer.  Wondering if she is Andrew's sister?  So many things to match up.

Yes, I think I have been on a wild goose chase, unfortunately.  My Greatgrandfather Andrew Lawlor states on the 1891 census when living in Surrey that he was born 1865 in Lettonn Ireland.  Cannot find this place.  Cannot find any trace of his birth, maybe I should be checking out Dublin births?On another census he states born in Raheen Queens.  Very confusing.
Thank you everyone for your help, disappointed but shall keep looking for clues.

BIG THANK YOU TO EVERYONE FOR THEIR HELP.  STILL STUCK.  THINK HAVE FOUND MY GREATGRANDFATHER ANDREW LAWLOR BORN 1866 TO JOHN LAWLOR AND WIFE BRIDGET DELANY,IN TANKARDSTOWN,  ALTHOUGH HIS YEAR OF BIRTH WAS 1865 ON MARRIAGE CERT.  FOUND THEY HAD THEIR LAST SON JOSEPH IN 1883, AND JOHN LAWLOR DIED 1898 IN TANKARDSTOWN.  SAYS HE WAS A WIDOWER BUT CANNOT FIND DEATH OF BRIDGET.  HOW DO I GET COPIES OF THEIR MARRIAGE ETC TO GET A LINK TO THEIR PARENTS?
MY GGFATHER ANDREW MARRIED AND LIVED IN SURREY ENGLAND FROM ABOUT 1889, SO MAYBE SOME OF HIS BROTHERS MOVED TO ENGLAND TOO.  THANKS AGAIN.

How do I get birth, marriage and death certificates re myGG/father in Athy region please?
Think I have found my GGmother's death in 1888, but there are no specific details on the page.
I guess I need the marriage certificate for my GG's so I can find their parents.

What fun! I have found my G/Gfathers death in 1898, plus births of 5 boys, still looking for another. Cannot get my GGfathers birth or GGmothers death, think 1876.  Many thanks for your help
