Dublin / Re: Infant Baker born in Feb 1877…mother dies following childbirth

Hi,
  Charlotte is buried in St. John the Baptist Cemetery in Clontarf.  I believe James' Father was Thomas Baker who died in 1852.  He was married to Amelia Ellis Baker Dixon.

They were COI….I will check to see if Granny had a will.  I have not been able to find any records on the baby's mom…I can't even find a marriage record for Charlotte Forrester and James Baker.  I do know that my great grandmother, Mary Elizabeth Baker,  was born in Newbridge(Avoca) in 1874….so maybe she had family there…it is all a mystery!!!

There was an extended family at that address.  The grandmother, Amelia Ellis Baker Dixon, seemed to have owned the property…The father did remarry in 1885…I did search the death records and there are named infant Bakers but it could be any of them..I will take another look at that..

Dublin / Infant Baker born in Feb 1877…mother dies following childbirth
« on: Sunday 25 October 15 14:28 GMT (UK)  »
My great great grandmother, Charlotte Forrester Baker, died several days after giving birth to a son in February 1877 at the Rotunda Hospital in Dublin.  The baby's father was James Baker . I have the baby's birth record but he was not named.
Charlotte also left two young daughters, one of which was my great grandmother.  The family resided at 13 Strandville Avenue in Clontarf. 
My question is what would have happened to this child?  He would have had to have been nursed in order to survive….Would he have been given up to relatives or to an orphanage?  He did survive the birth so he went somewhere…

Any ideas or suggestions?

Thanks..

Anybody with a Moran connection to Cloone?  Also Keegan and Reynolds?  I have made an Autosomal DNA connection to Morans that came from Cloone..I am trying to put it all together.

Thanks..

Wicklow / Re: Wilkinson lookup please
« on: Monday 02 June 14 11:13 BST (UK)  »
Hi,
  I was in touch with you awhile back.  My Wilkinsons are from Wicklow.  Anyway,  I looked on the Irish Family History Foundation's website.  There was no Richard born in Wicklow at that time…at least within a five year span.  There was a Richard born in Wexford during that time period.  I don't know if you have checked that one out yet.  Wexford is next to Wicklow.  One of my Wilkinsons listed his home as Wickford on his US citizenship papers and he was from Wicklow.
So errors were made.   He also might have lived in Wicklow and was not born there.

A death record in Pennsylvania may list the parents…That may help you in your search.

Leitrim / Reynolds of Cloone, Leitrim area
« on: Saturday 01 February 14 17:50 GMT (UK)  »
I am seeking information regarding a Reynolds family of Cloone, Leitrim.  John Reynolds was born in April of 1849 in Cloone, Leitrim.  This location was listed on his US naturalization papers.  He came to the US in 1866.  He settled in Abington, MA.  He lived with my gg grandmother's sister Mary Moran Rourke in Abington for awhile.  I recently found out that my ggg grandmother's maiden name was Reynolds.  She was Bridget Reynolds Moran born in Leitrim around 1795.  She had married James Moran circa 1820 in Leitrim.  They had four daughters, one of which was my gg grandmother.  All four of the daughters came to Massachusetts, USA during the famine.  One of the sisters to my gg grandmother married a Rourke from Drumshanbo. 

Any information regarding the Reynolds family would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

Sara C.
