Curtis of Cork Ireland
« on: Monday 09 May 05 16:11 BST (UK) »
Would like to find the parents of Harry Seymour Curtis, He took on his uncles name as his parents died when he was young. His surname was Callahan, not sure of the spelling and his uncle owned Curtis Dairies.

Hello Viola,

Approximately when might Harry have been born ?
This information will make the search to find his parents that much easier.

Best Wishes,  Christopher

Hi,

Have you found his birth entry in the Irish records? The indexes are available at your local family history centre.

Hi,

Your best bet in your local church of the latter day saints which has a family history centre.

Apparently it was Curtis Or Callahan of Waterford Ireland. That is where Harry Seymour Curtis was born under the name of Callahan. Viola
