Thank you for your help everyone was showing as they should (biological etc) but for some reason my dad's mum showed as my step-grandmother couldn't work out what I'd done wrong so I just deleted her and re-added her details and she is now showing as she should do I still have no idea what I did different but glad its showing right now :) Thanks again

p.s. I was working on my tree on ancestry.co.uk

Hi I had a problem with my tree but I couldn't work out where I had gone wrong so decided to set up a mirror tree and build it up again and hopefully work out where I went wrong

All was going well but after I added my father's mother it came up that her connection to me was step-grandmother and I cannot understand why, I've doubled checked everything and all is as it should be (she's down as my father's mother etc) but no idea what I've done any help would be very appreciated

Kerry / Re: Can anyone with a brick wall regarding my grandmothers line?

Strangely there is a 1929 birth (it could have been registered late) in Tralee on FindMyPast of a Mary CLIFFORD but there are no references given

If she was a Catholic and married in a Catholic Church in England - the church may have a record of her baptism and also some churches recorded both parent's names although only the father's was required for civil registration. It would be worth contacting the church (if used) to see.

Have you got a link to that birth record so I can have a look? thank you

I'm not sure about baptism, I found a transcript of my grandfather's baptism and at the bottom they've added the details of his marriage to my grandmother (church date etc) but I haven't yet found a baptism for Mary

Hi Sorry I just realised I got Mary's fathers name mixed up with another ancestor, her fathers name was Patrick Joseph Clifford

If the burial index is the correct one it say he was 54

Yes it does unfortunately

I honestly didn't mind I looked up some graves for myself while I was there, I'm just sorry there was no gravestone for you to see

Kerry / Can anyone with a brick wall regarding my grandmothers line?
« on: Wednesday 28 June 17 16:41 BST (UK)  »
Just wondered if anyone can help me open some doors on my grandmothers side

She died when my dad was a boy so information about her has been very little, she was known and was married to grandad John Joseph Treacy as Mary Bridget Clifford they were married 19th Dec 1959 in Kingston Upon Thames Surrey England where she also died in 1974

She was born 24 Oct 1928 in Tralee Ireland but so far I am struggling to find her birth record, family members have said she was born Maureen but still having no luck finding a birth record

I know from her marriage record her father was John Joseph Clifford and have potential burial record for him in Tralee Ireland in 1954 but no other info

A friend of mine her mum is my dads cousin as her dad is Mary's brother and through following him and some of the other siblings we have some info on Mary's mother but she appears on some records as Ellen and others as Helen and we have a potential burial record as Helen Clifford in Tralee in 1983

I am at a lost as to where to go next and wondered if anyone could help me

Thank you

Hi I am so sorry it has taken so long to get back to you, life got in the way and unfortunately I had not been able to get to the cemetery or do any work on my ancestry

I did get to the cemetery this week and unfortunately as is the same with most of family buried in Kingston there was no headstone for your grave, I did take a picture of the plot if that is any interest to you?

Take care
Michelle
