Dear all

I am looking for information if possible on Hugh Reynolds born Leitrim ( probably around 1810) married Catherine Cafferty and one of their sons was Michael Reynolds born circa 1841. They moved at some point o Scotland ( Fife)

I know its not  a lot but its all I have........................

Hello
All I can see is the baptism of their son Michael 25.3.1841 at Kiltubrid,Ardagh,Leitrim  s of Hugh Reynolds and Catherine Cafferty .Godparents Hugh Reynolds and Mary McNully.

Doesn't see to be a marriage but the records start pretty much about 1841.

There is a Hugh Reynolds there 1857 on the Griffiths Valuation,leasing land and a house of Charles Rolleston.

He's also there on the 1833 tithe books but whether he's the same man I don't know.

and at least three more marriages of a Hugh REYNOLDS in Co. Leitrim to different women within 5 years

Can anyone see a death for Catherine Reynolds nee Cafferty in the area?

The civil records for deaths don't start until the 1860s and the local church and cemetery records are scarce.  If she died in the 1840s, 1850s and part of the 1860s her death is most likely not recorded.

www.irishgenealogy.ie has the civil records online with a link to many of the originals

the early burial records mainly show a name only, in some cases it just states Widow or similar with no link to their relatives, address or any former names.

There are some deaths and burials online but it will be very difficult to link to a person specifically as there are many families with similar names around the area.
