heywood,

Just checking the Whittington details for 1880 and found that in Irish Genealogy there are two entries one a baptism (Church records) and one a civil birth which seem to have similar, but very different information especially re names. Jane REILLY being mentioned in both!

Would appreciate your comments re this.

Your notes for Mary, Anne, Esther and Jane with parents John REILLY and Anne DOYLE make much more sense, especially in light of the D/C for Anne REILLY where James H. HELMAN is informant.

How did you obtain this information.  I only have access to Irish Genealogy and FindMyPast.

I again am so indebted to you for your continued patience and assistance to me.  Really much appreciated.

Heywood,










Heywood,  Having looked over everything again I see there is confusion with the names Mary REILLY and Anne REILLY and also FARRELLY and FARLEY. Re the latter I thought it was just a variant of the same name; but now know it isn't.

I now think the John REILLY that I had as brother for Mary and Kate IS NOT SO.  The fact that they all lived near one another in Ringsend adds to the confusion.

It would seem to be a fact that Mary and Kate were sisters, even though we can't find Kate's birth nor baptism. The fact that Kate's jail record categorically states NoK Mary FULLAM, sister; is a strong case,  Also the fact that three separate members of Mary's family claim strong DNA matches with me is another strong case for connection.

Do you think it is possible that the Anne REILLY on the death certificate, where my grandfather is the informant, is almost certainly Kate's mother, could still be Mary FARRELLY, who, because of the other Mary REILLY called herself Anne? If this was the case it would be an explanation of some of the confusion.

Also you may have noticed in Dublin 1850's death notice from the newspaper it says re Mary FULLAM "her sons, daughters and sister." So one sister was still alive in 1951. It wasn't Kate.(died 1931). Could it be Esther, or another one we don't know about?

I do appreciate your interest in my dilemma and your comments and observations are very valuable to me. So, thank you most sincerely.
