Help with Place Name in Kilkenny???
« on: Sunday 18 October 15 03:11 BST (UK) »
Hello, this is a birth record taken from my 3x Great Grandfather born in Brisbane,Australia 1892. mother listed as Mary Collins, born in Wedloe,Kilkenny,Ireland. I am needing help with is or was there such a place as Wedloe in Kilkenny? Or is it meant to be Wicklow?? And this has just been lost in translation? From my searching I believe Mary Collins to be born in Mullinavat,Kilkenny, but not sure where this Wedloe comes into it. thanks in advance

I can see John Aug 1865 baptism in the parish register

We should be able to work back from there to Mary.

Ballintlea perhaps, don't know how you would get Wedloe out of that!

Tara, The details of her parents came from the marriage certificate in Australia. Again the place name of Mary Collins birth is Wedloe, kilkenny, the other is her parents - Patrick Collins and Mary Walsh. I knew her date of birth to be the 20th of March from an obituary, so I have been working on those things to narrow it down over the last couple of years but still trying to make sense of Wedloe. I had almost just come to the point that because she could not read or write the word Wedloe has been described as of Wicklow, and just been lost in translation for the last 123 years. Its the closest thing i could come up with.
