Mary Josephine Casey, Trying to find her birth
« on: Sunday 13 March 22 11:21 GMT (UK) »
Mary Josephine Casey married Charles Herbert Holland, 1901 in Limerick. She is on the 1901 census as Josephine Holland, age 27, born Limerick. They moved to England after their son, Charles Frederick was born in 1902.
Their marriage lists her father as Thomas Casey. There is a tree on familysearch which gives her DOB as 14th Feb 1874 but I am unable to find anything. There is a birth in Limerick, 1871 but the father is Michael Joseph.

They may have been RC. Possibly a baptism in St Michaels Church, Limerick.

Can anyone help please?

"They may have been RC. Possibly a baptism in St Michaels Church, Limerick."
You can search here- https://registers.nli.ie/parishes/0895

The marriage doesn't list an occupation for her father Thomas Casey-

Mary Josephine Casey born 8 Feb.1871-

There are several Mary Caseys born Co. Limerick around the same time with a father called Thomas. Have you found yours in England on 1939 register (should have exact date of birth but we aren't allowed to do look ups for it)
Away sorting out DNA matches... I may be gone for some time many years!

We think her brother was Thomas Casey, born 1865, son of Thomas Casey & Bridget Gleeson. Thomas 's marriage in 1905 has him residing at the same address as Mary Jo was when she married in 1901, 2 Little Glentworth St.
