You've already posted looking for relatives a few years ago-
http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php?topic=405199.0

Have you posted the surnames you are looking for in the SIT (Surname Interest Tables)?

No need to keep cluttering up the board with the same request. It's possible that someone might eventually reply or you could do it the old-fashioned way and actually try to trace all possible branches looking for descendants.

I thoroughly believe in re posting a request if time does not deliver any help. Seriously, what actually is the harm ??? I hardly think 2 posts on the same subject in 5 years is 'cluttering up the board'  If everyone had this amazing ability/available records and resources to do things the' old fashioned way' there would be no need for RootsChat at all.

And if everyone re-posted and bumped up their posts on a regular basis....

Search engines like google actually find posts on Rootschat quite well and we often see new replies to old posts so there really is no need to re-post the same request.

It would appear that you haven't? ???


My question is: why clutter up a board related to Family History, with requests for living relatives?!

I suggest that you add a new reply updating an existing topic to keep it active rather than creating a new topic; if you do start a new topic insert a link to the original, especially if any research has been untaken to prevent unnecessary duplication

MALLOW
To find any relatives of Charles and Mary Jane FORDE we need some help with approx. dates
I see from your previous topic that Mary Jane died in 1941, however there is no death in that year that matches
There is a death in 1950 of Mary Jane FORDE Dublin South Q2 V2 P331 in 1950 aged 87
If you were to obtain this death certificate you could check who the informant was or attempt to locate the grave which could be a family plot

It looks like Charles may have died in 1934 - Dublin South Q3 V2 P287 aged 75

This maybe them on 1911 census - LINK
and on the 1901 census - LINK

Record of interest: Charles FORDE m. Mary Jane NOLAN 1882 Dublin South Q4 V2 P611
based on 1911 census stating "married 30 years"

Family
1 c1883 Margaret
2 c1885 Patrick
3 c1890 Catherine
4 c1892 James - Possibility this is James in 1911 with an uncle
5 c1894 Charles - possibly died Dublin South 1920
6 c1897 Bridget
7 c1899 Elizabeth/Lillie
8 c1902 Michael
9 Other

With this many children it would be presumed that some lived to marry and that relatives exist
Remembering that in any reply you consider that this site does not allow discussion on the living
