Am I asking The Impossible?
« on: Friday 07 February 14 22:34 GMT (UK) »
Hello,

Even though I don't have a county of birth would it be possible to find parents for Thomas Robert Lewis (Louis) NICHOLL, I have no more to go on for his birth at all only that he was born in Ireland.

I hope somene can help,

Thank you in advance.

Any advice or information depends on whether he was born before or after the start of civil registration of births (1864).

Without probable time period it is almost impossible- however there is a birth entry in the civil registration index for a Thomas Robert Nicholl in 1884 Bawnboy (Cavan county) Oct-Dec Vol 3 page 45 and a death for what is possibly the same person in 1894.

Hi aghadowey,

I now have the County Of Armagh for his birth place, he may have been born around 1918 to 1922, he worked for the railway as a plate fitter...........does this help any?
