Beg your pardon, hallmark, I had overlooked the information re James Fitzroy  ::)

Shane,
Am I right now that you have answers to most of those names in your initial request - perhaps you need to track Mary down.
I know I asked re James F but then I did also post that I had found his appointment to Burma and then his commemoration so was happy with that information.

Heywood
Yes I'm sure you (both) have found everyone. I am still overwhelmed by the amount of imformation posted here. Its been very tricky at times with the Two Mitchell families being related and Im in a different time zone in NZ catching up with replies. But what a journey this is. Thank you Thank you Thank you. As for Mary well I will just hmmmm for now.

Hello people of County Offaly Ireland.

I research autograph names from a Shakespeare's Birthday Book which has been in my pocession for many years now. Once owned by Surgeon/Dr Thomas Leslie Crooke 1861-1943.

Recently I  stumbled on a site BOARDS IE but the messages were from 2010.
I couldn't gain access to the site as someone named (Sim) Simarillion was looking for these family names also in the Birthday Book among the 800-900 autographs.

Most people signed on their birthday but left no year.

These were relatives to a great Irish woman Susan L (Langstaff ) Mitchell Poet/Writer 1866 whose autograph is also in the book.

Sept 26. Mary Mitchell: Feb 3 (no birthdate year)  The Last one on the list thanks to Hallmark and Heywood for all their intensive searches to find the others.

So Mary Mitchell had 2 birthdays   ??

Shane,

We have given you some free sites to search yourself - Irish Genealogyn wills and census for example.

Here is a will for Mary Mitchell http://www.willcalendars.nationalarchives.ie/reels/cwa/005014913/005014913_00425.pdf

She is a spinster and admin has been granted to Adam Mitchell M D so presumably he is the doctor.

I can’t find her death though in Irish Genealogy.

To complicate matters there are two Adam Mitchells who are doctors - Adam and Adam G in 1901  :-\

You have an autograph of A G Mitchell so presumably yours.

You will have to look at this Shane and try to sort out with your notes
Adam Mitchell married to Harriet
http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1901/Queen_s_Co_/Borris_in_Ossory/Townparks__Part_of_/1652076/
Marriage of Adam Mitchell - Father Adam, a Solicitor, to Harriet Scott Mitchell

https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/marriage_returns/marriages_1882/10968/8009084.pdf

Adam G Mitchell married to Bessie -already noted earlier but just noticed he is born Limerick  :-\

Marriage to Bessie Manifold -  Adam Garrett with father Adam, Gentleman.

Now, Mary Mitchell, death not found, died 1904 according to the will and Adam Garrett Mitchell died 1901 so she must be connected to the Adam who is married to Harriett - or Harriett as she was also a Mitchell-  phew!

However, as you have  Adam G’s autograph and Manifold notes, Adam G is connected somehow.

Hmmmm..... not sure it’s the same tune, Hallmark  ;)

Hmmm!


It does have a certain air!  But needs mulling over.
