Clara Larkin born Tamnaghvelton (Banbridge- only 1 i- is the registration district)-

the civil parish is Kilmore-

Clara was born after the last available census (1911) and things such as baptismal record, school register, marriage certificate, etc. are unlikely to be online. Exactly what are you looking for?

Robert is a weaver from (as aghadowey says) the townland of Tamnaghvelton.

It's easier to help when we know what you are looking for  ;)

So, first some questions, when's the last trace you have of the family? any other children? (don't post details of anyone who might still be living)

It's not a matter of waiting for 'next' census after 1911 unfortunately. There was no 1921 census taken here and others unlikely to be released.

Thank you,  I cant find the newspaper clipping with Rebecca mentioned in it, sorry.........but it indicated that rebecca was still alive at the time of her sisters death in 1976, saying rebecca was in england?  but that could have also depended on who supplied the information i am guessing
