thank you Shane for those referances

@I am a little cofused as to dates as the ages of all these people seem to differ on both the 1901 and 1911 census.

John Harrold / 29 Nov 1866 / Feenagh, Co. Limerick / Ref. 638
  Edward Harrold / 17 Jan 1869 / Fenagh, Co. Limerick / Ref. 669
  Daniel Harrold /  21 Feb 1872 / Feenagh, Co. Limerick / Ref 707
  Thomas Harrold / 30 Oct 1874 / Ireland / Ref v 20 p 535

and then again here - although I don't doubt that these must be my ancestors. lol

so as far as i can tell
michael 1858, margaret 1863 or 1866, john 1866 or 1868, daniel 1871,72 or 74, thomas 1874 or 76,eliza 1869 or 1879 edward or edmund 1869.

these were all bothers and sisters

I am assuming that all this discrepancy in dates is quite normal?
thanks once again

Limerick / Harrold's of Limerick
« on: Tuesday 07 December 10 23:35 GMT (UK)  »
Hello,
i have managed to find my grandmother on the 1901 census, she did not live with her parents and brothers and sisters but with her cousins.
It is the parents of these cousins, and Mary's grandparents  that I would like to find. I know know census records survive before 1901 but would there be church baptism records?

http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1901/Limerick/Broadford/Barnagarrane/1509047/

Harrold’s without Mary who would have been 8  in 1901

http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1901/Limerick/Kilmeedy/Cloonpasteen/1510332/

Mary Harrold with the cousins another family of Harrolds. In 1901

I do not know where to begin to look so maybe someone can help me out.

Mary my grandmother was moved away for poking the baby in the eye - all seems a little harsh to me but maybe it was normal then.

thanks in advance
Nora

if this is the same person were there more children?

Hi sandy,

thanks very much for that interesting reply.

I have been wondering over the last few months if something odd went on with Matilda Walker and William Samms and William Major
Matilda married Samms in 1858
a daughter Matlida is born in 1859

can anyone find this family on the 1861 census?

By 1864 Matilda is with William Major and Elizabeth is born.
But I can not find a wedding for this couple.

Is it possible that they were never married or indeed they were but not as Matilda Walker/Samms or William Major, beginning to think that Willaim Major was an assumed name, does anybody have clue as to why he may have done this?

Hello Everybody,

So today after i got home from visiting my Mum :( the wedding cert was here for Mary A Harold. i ordered it March 30th - not the best service but it is here.

Her father was Micheal Harold a Farmer so it makes this http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1911/Limerick/Broadford/Barnagarrane/637746/  her family for sure.

Mary Ann is on the cert but on her grave it says Mary Ita. is Ita the Irish for Ann?

there are possible records for her birth on 
http://pilot.familysearch.org/recordsearch/start.html#p=0

how do I order or get to see certificates to check?

Thanks once again
Patricia
