Alice HODGES born c1844

[guest189040]

I keep searching every now and then to see if any new data has been placed online but alas I am getting nowhere.

The Irish geneaology site today has zero results for birth or marriage.

All I have about Alice is that she was born in Waterford c 1844

Any ideas?

The marriage certificate arrived today.

Its not my James and Alice so I can discount the Monmouth marriage and the people listed there and also the Ancestry Tree which lists them.

What is it about the Monmouth marriage that confirms for you that it is not your couple?  I see that in 1881 there is a 10 year age gap between James born Dublin and William born India.  Do you have details of both those births/baptisms?  Are you certain that those two have the same parents?

In reply.

Wrong parents, wrong profession, wrong profession of James father so it is safe to assume from this its the wrong couple from the marriage cert.

Yes I am certain they (James and William) have the same parents, they are all together in the 1891 census and it shows James born in Dublin and William born in India with father James a Shoemaker so it is 100% correct that I have the right family members.  1901 census has my Grandmother James (Grandfather) and uncle James whilst her father William is away in South Africa so again conclusive proof the family is correct

Since I started this thread I have not advanced finding anything further about Alice.

I keep getting emails from the irish genealogy website saying they have new records.

I entered her details ie Alice Hodges b1844 in Waterford into the search boxes and for the first time it responded with positive results.

Not being a subscriber I cannot view them and as the day fee is £17 I do not really want to buy a day pass unless I have to.

I have bought day passes before to other sites that have responded with positive results for family member and not had any success with them hence I am reluctant to buy a pass without some form of confirmation.

So can I ask a subscriber to confirm or otherwise that the results do look like they are for my Alice?

If it does look like her I will then buy a day pass.
