Courtney Family Bellewstown, Co. Meath
« on: Wednesday 21 February 24 13:55 GMT (UK) »
Hi
I am trying to find info on two of the great-great-grandparents William Courtney (born: Jan 20 1873 Bellewstown, Co. Meath, Ireland. Died Nov 18 1946 Bellewstown, Co. Meath, Ireland) and his wife Bridget Anna Courtney (nee Bannerton) (born: July 1 1875 Abbotstown, Co. Dublin, Ireland. Died: Dec 9 1959 (at age 84) Bellewstown, Co. Meath, Ireland). They were married in Apr 29 1903, and as far as I no they had 4 children.
If anyone can help with info on this family such as the family of William Courtney like ancestors, descendants

From his 1903 Marriage, I see William’s father named as William also. 
See:-

So, looking for William’s birth, there was a William Courtney born in 1873 to William and his wife Catherine (nee Reddy).  Address given at that time was Bellewstown Hill.

In 1877 William and Catherine (nee RUDDY) had a daughter Teresa.

There may be more children.

This appears to be the 1891 death of Julia Courtney, at a young age.  Informant named as Kate Courtney, mother.  See:-
