Appreciate any information...marty

It helps if you could provide as much detail as possible when asking for information so that we might help you (vague requests for 'any information' often get ignored or else we find data that you already have found previously).
Civil registration of births began in 1864 so you'll need to search for church records (if they exist). Did Margaret stay in Ireland? (non-Irish resources often contain clues and details not found in Irish records) did she marry? (marriage certificate might list father's name and occupation) what religion would she have been? (civil registration of Catholic marriages began in 1864 but other marriages from 1845).

Hello, in the Tithe Applottments the Carrs were shown in Mullaghbrack, four families, unfortunately in later times they also used Kerr in the census of 1901 and 1911 and in Griffiths Valuation. Mullaghabrack is in Cloone with the nearest big town Mohill. I am researching the family also but that birth year appears out of kilter with my lot but I have not gone beyond 1870 for now.
Regards
Pat

RC records are coming on line, free in a few days so they can be searched then. anyway oroginal post is October 09, 2009 and whoever posted might not have been back in years so not much point in wasting time looking.

Yes it was resurrected 6 years later by Pat who seems to be looking for same Surname but could be a different lot!

Is there a link to the RC records on this site?
I have a Mary Veronica Carr who was born in Carrick-on-Shannon in 1927. She married Edward Anthony O`Callaghan and I am looking for marriage details.
Thanks.

Do you mean the Irish Catholic Parish Registers that were recently put online? if so see here-
http://registers.nli.ie/
However, the recent registers are not likely to be online, especially those covering living people.
The online Irish civil registration index only goes up to 1958- again to protetct the privacy of possibly living people.

Thank you Aghadowey.
Do you also have a link to the online Irish civil registration index.

Pat; I don't know if it may be of any earthly use or even interest to ye. But, I have a duff certificate here. I think it might be a John Gaites marrying a Hannah Carr ....? What ever. I seem to remember Liverpool figured heavily in the equation. Just wondering if any of your Carr peeps came over?
Have to say; Funny old world, isn't it? I've now come over here and, when I talk of going into town? Yep. I mean Mohill! ;)
