Just hoping that some one will be able to help me.
My G Grandmother was christened in 1871 at 129, 3 North Centre,Cork.
I have googled the address but haven't been able to find any information. I can't seem to find out where this would be, although I'm pretty sure it was in Cork City.
I don't know if it was an RC church or a COI church.
If any one can give me any ideas I would be most grateful.

what's the source of this ?
If it's from the IGI/familysearch then the 129 is possibly the page number in the civil register, and North Central the sub-registration district.

Thanks for that Shane.
You're right, it is from the IGI website, and now I feel really dumb! Why didn't I think of that? No surprise then that nothing came up when I googled it!
Would you have an idea of the area sub reg district North Central covers?
Regards
Trish

I'd say somewhere north Cork city - but probably includes a large area of the city.
If you search the civil index for the same name and date you should be able to find a civil cert reference (with a matching page number), which can be used to order a birth cert. This will include a proper address, father's occupation etc

Thanks for the advice Shane, much appreciated. I'll pop onto the website you have given the link for and see what I can find.

Hi Trish. Did you get any further on obtaining a birth certificate with address on of Catherine Sullivan nee Wiseman married to John Sullivan. We have chatted some years back. Patrick Sullivan.

Hi Patrick,
I haven't obtained a birth record for Elizabeth Sullivan as yet. I have requested a copy of the marriage record of John Sullivan and Catherine Wiseman. Hoping I should receive it shortly.
Let me know if you would like me to forward you a copy when I receive it.
Regards
Trish

Hi Trish. I would be very grateful of a copy. Haven't done anything for sometime and hopefully this can kick me back into the research. At least with this hobby you always have previous research to fall back on. Thank you, Patrick.
