Help in finding relatives
« on: Monday 01 August 16 22:44 BST (UK) »
I wonder if anyone can help me?
I'm looking at trying to find any information about my relative's from Ireland my great grandfather was Charles Brady born 1863 Cavan? died 1926 in Crowenstown he was married to Mary M,Keon (McKeon, McKeown?) In 1891 she was born 1872 and died in 1960 they had 8 children Charles was in the RIC I have his service records but looking to find his parents and hopefully even further into the past! If anybody can point me in the right direction in finding out information on my distant relatives I would be very grateful

Hi and welcome to Rootschat

Have you looked for them on the 1901 and 1911 Irish census which is free here?

Thanks to all for pointing me in the right direction
Hopefully can get copies of marriage certificate and birth and death certificates too, a way to get them online without filling in the form and sending off by post? Would be better if I was in Ireland I suppose

Once again much appreciated

Peter

  Charles, Mary & family are in House 1 Crowinstown (Great) Ballinlough Westmeath in 1911 census. Occupation Farmer, married 19 yrs, 8 children born & 8 living. www.nationalarchives.ie
The RC Parish records are online free for baptisms & marriages www.registers.nli. 1901 Census Mary & 5 children John 8, Mary 6, William 4, Alphonous 2 Anthony 1 are in House 19 Ballynagore (Ballynagotr, Westmeath)  Charles is not there & failed to find record of him anywhere in 1901 but if he was in RIC this may explain his absence

Thank you very much for the information have the 1911 census sheet now, good you found the 1901 too interesting that Charles not listed as you say he was probably elsewhere in RIC though his service records show that he was in Westmeath from 1892 till pensioned off in 1910
Once again many thanks
