The following family moved to Walsall, Staffordshire in England during the late 1840's - 1851:
Michael Coyne born c1808 and Rose/Rosa McGovern born c1811 - I believe they were born in Roscommon as two of their children stated this on later censuses. Their children are:
Peter Coyne - born c1833 (stated born Roscommon)
John Coyne - born c1835
Ellen Coyne - born c1835
Mary Coyne - born c1837
Michael Coyne - born 1842 (stated born Roscommon)
With the arrival of the Catholic indexes during the past few days I was hoping to find at least a baptism for one of the children or the marriage of Michael to Rose but have failed miserably.
Please can anyone point me in the right direction? Are there many Roscommon catholic registers for this time missing from the new indexes on FindMyPast and Ancestry? Has anyone come across any members of this family in their research?
I have the family on all the censuses from 1851+ in England and have the Walsall RC records that name Michael Coyne and Rose McGovern on various entries however I just can't find anything yet in the Irish records.
Thanks,
Judy
