Good evening all, I hope you are all staying safe in these difficult times.
I am revisiting my 2nd Great Grandparents and would like your kind assistance, please.
John Doyle (?1861- ?) and Anastasia Doyle (?1862-1924)
m. 12/6/1879, St Paul’s Dublin(John’s father – Patrick (deceased) / Anastasia’s father – Miles Doyle)
With help from JNoone and Taramcdsmall a few years ago, I was able to flesh out more of my great grandmother’s family.
See previous post:https://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php?topic=666710.18Now, I am trying to find the last of the details for the family but, as I’m sure you’re aware, searching for Doyle in Dublin is quite problematic.
I have the family in 1901 at Newmarket, Merchants Quay. They were listed as CoI, John being born Wexford
John 40
Annatatia 39
Mary 18 (1883-1949)
Hannah 14 (1885-1937 m. James McCabe)
Annatatia 8 (1893-?)
In 1911, I believe they are in New Row South, Merchants Quay
John 50
Anne 52
Hannah 19
Anne 17
However, they are now Roman Catholic, John being born in Dublin.
*Mary is accounted for in 1911, as she is already married to Patrick Tyrrell and is living with him, and 2 children (Eliza and Peter) in Cork St.
In the 1911 Census, Anne/ Anastasia reports having had 9 children, only 3 living. They would be Mary, Hannah and Anne/Anastasia.
Trawling through possible birth records, I found only one of the other six:
Patrick b 24 Jan 1881 – 39 James Street. He is not in the 1901 census, and with the 3 girls accounted for, I can only surmise he is dead. I have looked for a death record and found a possibility:
It’s a tragic one – clothes accidentally catching on fire.
Patrick Aged 5, 25 March 1885 Richmond Hospital, unfortunately they wrote the word ‘from’ but included no address, so this can’t be confirm. An inquest was held 27 March 1885. The informant was coroner, so I can’t confirm a parent’s name.
Would Coroner’s records from 1885 still be available? Was it possible anything would have been in a local paper?
Also looking for help on trying to find the five deceased unknown Doyle children.
And any further information on the daughter Anne/Anastasia – I haven’t found a likely marriage or death.Given that my 2nd great grandfather is John Doyle, who maybe Catholic, maybe CoI, maybe born in Wexford, maybe in Dublin, I'm not holding out too much hope in finding further information on him, but if your have a crystal ball or magic wand and want to weave some magic, I'd appreciate it. Thanks for your time. Stay safe.
