Michael Danaher
« on: Friday 29 October 10 17:53 BST (UK) »
I'm trying to find a birth record for Michael Danaher born c 1852 in Canterbury. His father was in the army at the time, [88th Foot Connaught Rangers] . Any suggestions? I have tried the military births on FindMyPast, but came up with nothing.

I cand find no Michael Danaher born c 1852 in Chatham on Ancestry, even tried just Danaher with various spellings but no luck.

Are you certain that he was born in Chatham  ???

I can't see a Michael born Canterbury around that time.

He has a step-sister with the surname TULLY but I can't see a birth with that surname either.

I wondered if DANAHER was a variant of DONAHUE but I can't see any births for that name either.  ???

I tried Donohoe as well but nothing. :(

Perhaps his birth was not registered  :-\

Yes, that's him in Wales 1861. His father[Michael] was in the army until 1855 when he was pensioned out due to injuries in the Crimea War. So I would have thought his birth would be within the military,can`t find any record though. Also tried to find a marriage for his father Michael and step-mum Catherine,nothing.

They could have married in Ireland or America.
