Catherine Brosnan
« on: Wednesday 10 October 18 09:37 BST (UK) »
I have come up against a brick wall with birth details and therefore parents of my great grandmother Catherine Brosnan. I am pretty certain that she came from around Ballybeg . I have a birth year of 1858 and by the late 1880s she was in London with my great grandfather Thomas McDonald from Carlow. I cannot trace a marriage certificate either. Looks like the Brosnans are a large family so if anyone can help me unlock the door I would be most grateful.

Unfortunately it's St.Mary's which is only on RootsIreland I think, as the church record might give more information, like an address for parents.

His surname was however it was spelt on the day. These things can change as often as the wind.
