Laurence Mullins, b. Kilmurry 1862
« on: Tuesday 23 September 08 05:55 BST (UK) »
I'm looking for the parents of Laurence Mullins, b. 24 Jun 1862 in Kilmurry and who emigrated to the US prior to 1890.

Any assistance would be appreciated. Thanks.

As you've been told on another post, civil registration of births in Ireland began 1864, so there will be no birth certificate for Laurence Mullins.

You mention 'Kilmurry' but have posted the same query on several different boards so I'm wondering if you even know what county Laurence Mullins came from?
There are 44 places in Ireland, in many different counties, with Kilmurry in the name so you need to find both the county and the parish before you can start to search for church records.
See www.thecore.com/seanruad to search for townlands and parishes in Ireland.

Do any U.S. records (census, etc.) give a county in Ireland for Laurence?
Away sorting out DNA matches... I may be gone for some time many years!
