It is 9 pages long.  cavangirl's post in August 2015 was:
"Hi Biffbiff,
My great granny was Winifred Finn married to Michael Giles, Ballyrahan. They had 3 daughters and a son- my Grandfather William (Bill).  My granddad married Mary Walsh from Arklow. They had 5 sons and a daughter. The oldest of their family is Michael..My father. The family moved to Co. Meath in the late 40's "

Cavangirl post said her g.granny was Winafred Finn and she married Michael Giles. I know they married 15/4/1913 her father was Andrew Finn Monbay Craanford and her mother was Elizabeth Sheehan.I am trying to find out who my g.granny Winafred Finn Monbay parents were. She was born @1838 (by headstone) and married Michael Doyle Rossminogue b@1809. Ithink they could have been married around 1860-1861.From then on i know about them .The first Finn came to Monbay in 1685he was an Anthony Finn. At one time there were four Finn familys in Monbay all decendents of Anthony.The parish records for 1832-1844 what I want are missing does Cavangirl know anything about the Finns around this time.I have some info  cant figure it out if I could find parents I might get somewhere am stuck at moment.

[wexfordlady]

anyone know  when parish records are missing  is there anywhere else you can look (1830'-1844)

Thank you very much for your reply culbaire. All Finns of Monbay are decendents of Anthony who came there in 1685.I think Jeremiah Finn who married Bridget Molloy  is the one i should be looking for but i am not sure.(no records of Winafred Finn born @1838 to be found) Once again thank you very much.
