All these people were born well before the start of civil registration in Ireland. If they were Catholic- have you checked for R.C. parish registers?

Could be mine but it seems a bit early I’m 90% sure I had a great/great great grandfather named John Dolan who may have been married to a Mary but I think we came from Galway in the early 1900’s. I just stumbled on this as my great uncle John Dolan died today.

There is another family of Dolan’s from the Belcoo area of Fermanagh.

Hello terrydolan,

be interesting if they are your relatives, the only one that i'am  sure of is the son james dolan, he is my great grandfather, on his death certicate and army records he was born inniskillen and parents john dolan and mary ann carey, found his brother felix on some other records (that's if they are corrected) I don't know if his parents are born in Enniskillen as well, as we know in the early days there was a lot of moving around following the farm work.

cheers for now  carol
