Devins
« on: Wednesday 12 July 23 23:01 BST (UK) »
Hi. My Great Aunt Alice Harte was born on 18th August 1892 at Cooladonnel, Rossinver in Leitrim. She married John Devins in Sligo Cathedral in 1904 and they had the following children. Mary Margaret 1907, John Patrick 1913, Raymond James 1909, Keiran Henry 1906 and Shiela 1911.
If there is any of their descendants on here I would love to get in touch. Patsy Harte

Have you checked the Surname Interests Board?

Scroll to bottom of this page & link is under TOOLS

Have you made an error with her birth year?  If she was b 1892 she would only have been 12yrs old if she married in 1904

Just posting the marriage for other readers:

https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/marriage_returns/marriages_1904/10199/5711474.pdf

Could Alice be the daughter born to Peter Hart and Mary Rooney (below), birth date given as 12 February 1883 (though there is an earlier baptism for this child on 21 January)?

There is a tree on Ancestry which supports the 1883 birth & also shows she died Limerick 1958

Her brother Bartholomew was b 1892

Her daughter Mary Margaret died 1924

Husband John died 1939 Sligo

You may find it useful to contact the tree owner to see if they can help re living relatives
