Hi,

The places to check and resources to use vary depending on what you already have and the place and years. Give us some more information and see what suggestions we can come up with.

Hello Kate,
Thanks for the life line the info i have is as follows

My grandparents were Jane Horan and my grandfathers name was Edward O'Brien and they came from Dublin .
I think Jane was born about 1879 and Edward about 1877
( toy boy) I do have there parents names Janes parents were Thomas and Mary Burn ( don' think Marys surname is correct spelling )  and Edwards parents John and Mary Heffernan.

I dont have any dates dont want to waste money ordering to many wrong certificates.

Edward and Jane lived in larkfield gardens most of there married lives i think.they had about 7 or 8 children including my father William.
Can you point me in the right direction with the info i have.

Thank You

Valerie

Hi,

Do you mean you don't have the birth certs yet? You should be able to get the birth register entries for these years from your local family history centre.

Have yoy got them on the 1901 or 1911 census?
