REGAN of Ardkill (Ardcull) Ballaghaderreen, Roscommon (COMPLETED)

[illingworth]

I am looking for the deaths of Mary Regan and her husband Patrick Regan living in Ardkill.  Mary died around 1938 in Ardkill and Patrick died around 1942 in the Sacred Heart home or hospital Roscommon.  I have tried to get their death certs with no results.

Have you tried the Irish Civil Index (on familysearch) ?

If you know approx years of birth you should be able to narrow down some possible matches using the ages at death. If you find anything you can order a cert from the GRO using the Index references.

Do you know when Patrick and Mary were born?

Do you know where they were born?

Do you Mary's maiden name?

Do you know the names of their parents?
Have you found them on the 1901 and/or 1911 Censuses?

Hello John

I have them on the 1911 census with their children Mary and Bridget Regan and his mother-in-law Margaret Towey in Ardkill.Roscommon.

From the census I would say Patrick was born around 1870 and Mary around 1868. 
I think Mary was born in Ardkill Mayo as the boundary of Ardkill changed in 1898ish to Roscommon from Mayo.
I think Patrick was born in Boghtaduff Mayo boundary again changing 1898ish to Roscommon.

Mary's maiden name was Towey.
Her parents Martin Towey and Margaret Caulfield.
Patricks parents Hugh?Regan and Margaret Doherty?

I think I have Mary on the 1901 census but her age is different living with her mother.
Patrick I can't find on the 1901 but maybe his mother in Boghtaduff.

Patrick and Mary married in 1903 in the cathedral Ballaghaderreen.

Despite all this info I still can't find their births, deaths and about their birth families

Mistake corrected

Hello Aghadowey

Thanks for your reply but Mary's mother was definately Margaret.  Also Marys mother is on the 1911 as Margaret.
I forgot to add that Mary had a sister Bridget and brothers whose names I don't know.  Patrick also had a sister Ellen.

Sorry- typed in sister's name instead of mother's- see correction above.

Hello Aghadowey

It certainly seems like the right Mary with the year of birth and the parents names.  I never knew she had a sister Catherine andd a sister Margaret though - it may well be that they died early. I may send off for a cert to see if its the right one born in Mayo.

Thanks for taking the time to reply.
