Death William Robert Caulfield, Mar 1, 1876, Ballymoghan House
« on: Saturday 07 April 18 16:44 BST (UK) »
William Caulfield of Ballymoghan House died Mar 1, 1876. His wife was Nancy, surname unknown. they would have married about 1840-1844. I have his death record but of course that doesn't give the names of his children. Would there be a newspaper article or obit that might give further info about William? I know for sure he had a daughter Matilda who married William Mitchell and a daughter Rosanna who married William Streahorn. Suspect there was also a John who married Rachel Mitchell, a William Robert who married Annie Mary Porter and a Margaret Jane who married William George Lennox.
Thanks for any help.

You have his death record.... so why not look for Births etc at same District Office??

Just go to https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/civil-search.jsp

and put in    Surname and whatever DISTRICT OFFICE it was registered at.

All of the children of William Robert Caulfield and Nancy would be born between 1841 and abt 1860 so before what they have on irishgenealogy.ie.  I have looked, believe me. All the info I have has led me to reconstruct this family with the named children but I thought perhaps an obit or something would further confirm my info.
thanks

I understand..... thought looking through Marriages might find children.

Otherwise, maybe a gravestone?

Have you found these Marriages?

I have found the marriages and the father is William. But is it for sure this William? I rather think so but like to be sure.
Thanks

Possible clues:
Did you notice that Matilda and John both had an Alexander Morrow as a witness?
Matilda and Margaret Jane were married in the same place...Woods Chapel.
