Title: Hamill
Post by: ADH on Sunday 15 July 12 17:13 BST (UK)

Help please.  I have hit a block and cant find any more info.

I am tracing the family history of HAMILL and need help finding anyone relating back from Patrick Hamill DOB 1834/1838 died around 1871 in Belfast I think?  He married Catherine Daly on 11th November 1862 at St Malachys RC Church Belfast.
 As far as I am aware they had two children Catherine DOB 1866 and Hugh DOB 1865.

Any info would be much appreciated :)
Thanks
Alastair

Hi..

I can see the marriage of Patrick Hamill to Catherine Daly in 1862 on http://antrim.rootsireland.ie - if you go into marriage records, type in both parties names, and then go through the list until you see Belfast (RC), this will give you the marriage record. This may give you his and hers fathers names, which means you might be able to go back another generation.

On same site page, I found two children born to them and these are Thomas Hamill 1869 and James Hamill 1871.

Hope this helps you in some way,

Annie

www.familysearch.org shows several children:
1. son born 16 Feb.1865 Belfast registration district (page 315 in civil register)
2. son born 25 May 1869 Belfast registration district (page 363 in civil register)
3. son born 3 June 1871 Belfast registration district (page 338 in civil register)
4. Sarah married 9 Mar.1886 Manhattan, New York to Peter Kelly

There is a death registration for a Patrick Hamill, age 37, 1871 Belfast registration district volume 11 page 214. Although death certificates don't contain much detail the address might match that of the 1871 birth certificate.
