Title: Winifred Crane (Cryan? Creghan?) of Carrogarve, Roscommon, b. ca 1790
Post by: Maureen99 on Saturday 30 December 23 18:08 GMT (UK)
Looking for Winifred Crane (Cryan? Creghan?) Giblin of the townland Carrogarve, County Roscommon, b. ca 1790.

She appears on the death certificate of Margaret (Giblin) Niland -- Winifred is Margaret's mother.  Margaret was born in Carrowgarve, Roscommon, about 1815, and so I'm looking there for her mother Winifred.  The Niland (Neilon) family and the Giblin family were all in the same Carrogarve neighborhood for a very long time, but I cannot find a Winifred in their midst. 

Her daughter's 1914 death certificate transcribes Winifred's maiden name as "Crane", but I am guessing this is a "write what you hear" situation, so I'm not sure how to spell it as I wander through the records.  Crahan? Cryan, Creghan?

I've looked through the Applotments and the Griffiths.  Anyone have any idea where to look next?

Thanks in advance...

Yes, thanks, that original post was written by me.  The replies were very helpful, but now I'm trying to move backwards another generation.
