Hello all,
Irish genealogy is something i really struggle with so hope you can help? Are there further Enniscorthy resources i can check for the 1820's?
this is my tree
https://www.ancestry.co.uk/family-tree/tree/79969392/family?fpid=34407922737I'm trying to track them down to prove/disprove a relations ship they had.
My ancestor Edward Byrne claims to be born in Liverpool 1823. He's a merchant captain & on one of his certificates December 1851 he lists an liverpool address as 18 Islington, now on the night of the census 1851 at the same address is living a James & Elizabeth Byrne. Coincidence???
So going back i think i have found James & Elizabeth on the 1841 census with 6 children one called Aiden... coincidentally Edward named his only child Aden.
So the family were born in Wexford Enniscorthy & looking for through the ancestry parish registers i can see baptisms combined with my theory
i think there could be 8 children, i can find baptisms for 5. Not my Edward typically!
Now are there any other resources i can look at & also looking up the registers i have come across sponser names, are they usually relatives? There seems to be a few names that are connected.
Lawrence Doyle / Mary Bolger
Rev E Doyle ??maybe / Ann Bolger
John Doyle / Catherine Bolger
there are other names i can not make out & it states Elizabeths maiden name as Doyle.
As we are talking around the 1820's it seems to be making it harder for me, putting in the other names gives me nothing.
I have tried on the main board before to find this family. links below
