Percy Kilroy and Kathleen Howard in Dublin
« on: Wednesday 08 January 14 21:06 GMT (UK) »
Hi there I am looking for Kathleen Howard and Percy (Percival) Gibson Kilroy who lived in Dublin during the early 1900s. I am mostly looking for their parents but siblings would be great too.
thank you! :)

It may be that the information you are looking for is too recent to be online. This looks like transcription of their gravestone-
No.919
In Treasured Memory | of | ENA KILROY | a devoted wife and loved | and loving
mother and grandmother | died 19th December 1975 | and her dearly beloved
husband | PERCY GIBSON KILROY | who joined her | on the 9th November 1989 |
Always in their childrens hearts | "I know that my Redeemer liveth".

Family Search Civil Births shows 4 Births from 1936 on for Kilroy mothers maiden name Howard not allowed list on here as may be still living.

edit if you want to go back you will have to purchase the marriage certificate for fathers names addresses etc.

Strangely enough the only marriage for a James Kilroy to Maria Gibson is in Dublin South 1877 vol 7 page 585, i wonder is Percy carrying his grandmothers name Gibson.

edit I am afraid the name Kathleen Howard is too common on the index to do any guesswork on her roots unfortunately its not standoutish like Percy's name,but hopefully all will be revealed if you purchase their marriage cert.
