Searching for William Obrien decendants

[Pammi63]

Any help much appreciated I long to go to Limerick and hopefully connect with past would be lovely if i found some distant relatives as planning a trip next year with hubby he's already been grave searching at folkestone ha.ha.

I presume this is the family in 1911. ancestry has them transcribed as O’Breen.

I can’t see the children’s births in indexes.

When and where was William born?

Trying to find an approximate marriage date)

[Pammi63]

Cant open link but sounds right it had spelling error.
My great grandmother and a son had died by 1911.
William born in limerick  city 1864 sorry was brother of Patrick Joseph obrien 1859 father Patrick and mother Mary Anne galligan seems like st Michaels was parish

To use Family Search, you need to register but it is free.

Do you mean that William Herbert is a son (brother to your grandfather Frederick Joseph) or is he the brother to Patrick Joseph, your great grandfather?

In that case, is Eleanor the first child born abt 1891?

[Pammi63]

Yes william herbert was my grandfathers brother and Eleanor mary his sister
I know that and their dates thanks
 

[heywood]

Thanks.
Your information re William was confusing in post #6.

Sorry, I have more questions.
I have seen the newspaper report (in a published tree) re Herbert William’s death - not William Herbert - aged 15yrs in 1909.
His mother’s death in 1910 is recorded as Mary O’Brien.

Where is she named as Catherine? Which records do you have with this and her surname Cahill?
Do you have any of the children’s birth records?

The published tree refers to Catherine as Katherine Keane Cahill 

[Pammi63]

Hi yeah thats right sorry about mix up with name
Yes he died in accident and mother was known as "Mary "
I also have her as katherine mary keane cahill
I was on ancestry, my heritage and other sites did manage to get some printed but its william obrien born in limerick city 1864 i want to trace and came to a standstill i am so happy you are able to help
