Searching for Patrick Hickey

[JessicaSarah14]

My mum said she was told Patrick was definitely born in Tipperary. What is the information you have on Patrick in 1939?

Just asked my mum again, 17th March he was born. I've looked at the link you provided and it states there was a Patrick Hickey born in Tipperary 17th March 1899. Mother's maiden name was Downey. Maybe getting somewhere now if this is accurate

Have you checked 1939 though for the birth date? It might be right or wrong though 

Does your transcription of the marriage give all details or is it just the index?  You really need his father’s name.

Re Gertrude - do the names Samson and Ellen (Davies) for her parents seem familiar to your mum?

This site helps with mother’s name for births before 1919 https://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/certificates/login.asp
It is free but you have to sign in.

There is a Gladys in 1911 with those parents, you can check that.

I am going to bed now but good luck - see what you can find but don’t just guess.

Definitely not 1939 as the birth date due to my nan being born 1929.

The only Patrick Hickey showing in Widnes died in 1965 which sounds about right, but was born 1890. So that must definitely be him. Still no closer to finding out the father and mother though which is really disappointing.

I feel I recognise Samson and Ellen Davies from looking at records related to Gertrude, however my mum is 100% sure Gertrude's mother was called Anne so I'm not sure if there is confusion somewhere because soon as I put Anne that's when things just don't add up. Will look more into this.

Thank you so much for your help - I have also pm'd you regarding a relative with the name Heywood incase you recognise any of the names.

I know I keep going on about 1939 - we aren’t allowed to post much information from that for copyright reasons.
However, I can say that there is a Gertrude and a Patrick Hickey and the 1939 gives birthdates.
