Searching for Patrick Gormley
« on: Thursday 16 October 14 05:05 BST (UK) »
Hi,
 we are searching for Patrick Gormley born in the 1920's in we think Omagh county Tyrone.
His father was Michael Gormley and his mother was Mary Ann.
We would love to find a birth record for him or any relatives.

thanks in advance
jenny

I'm afraid you may struggle to find this online, it's just too recent.  The GRONI online website gives access to marriages over 75 years old and the marriage of parents Michael Gormley and Mary McGrath on 9 October 1915 is therefore available.  However, the same website only gives access to births over 100 years old.

Thank you so for me to find any birth records where am I to look?  I have tried most search sites. I have a record from the find a grave site for the killiclogher church.  Showing a list of siblings. They all have birth dates except for Patrick 😁

On my husbands birth certificate which is 1957 here in Australia it states he is 32. Although that one in Omagh looks a possibility. How can I find out if it is the correct mother?

What's given as date of birth or age on his death certificate? (we aren't allowed to post any details of living people so if he's still alive/you aren't sure if he has died then this topic shouldn't be here and we can only give general advice)

Here's a link to the findagrave details-
http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=83666989

All the children of Patrick & Catherine listed there are deceased & listed as buried there/nearby (although care needs to be taken with such submitted information), so if young Patrick is dead then perhaps he was buried elsewhere and that's why his name doesn't appear with the others.

what years were the other siblings born  ?
was Patrick the oldest - or youngest and been in a different location to his siblings ?

We have no records here in Australia have no idea if Patrick is still alive or not. No access to death records in Australia .

Since we don't know if Patrick is deceased we cannot post any details about him here but if he did leave Ireland it would explain why he's not listed with the rest of the family on findagrave pages.
