Title: Burke family
Post by: Ajayne02 on Wednesday 30 April 25 10:49 BST (UK)
I was wondering if anyone would be able to help me please🙂

I’m looking for a Pat/patrick Burke and Kate Gorman and anything on their daughter Maureen/mary Burke.

Kate Gorman was born around 1897 potentially and she died when Maureen was 2 years old in 1924.

I unfortunately have nothing on Patrick sorry.

Maureen was born in moorehall ballyglass co.mayo Ireland around 01 nov. 1921 and died there on 30th dec. 2016.
She married Patrick plunkett not sure when or where but he was born 1919 and died on 26th of July 1998 in moorehall, ballyglass, Claremorris, Co. Mayo Ireland.

Any help would be appreciated.

Regards Ajayne02.

Duplicate threads cause more confusion and extra work for those trying to help. It would me more useful to get answers to questions raised in the original thread (there's nothing wrong with saying "I don't know" to a question)

I already posted those three births (link to actual registrations which is more helpful than transcribing information) as well as the 1916 marriage, so ciderdrinker has wasted time searching for and posting the details-
Possible marriage in 1916?
https://www.irishgenealogy.ie/files/civil/marriage_returns/marriages_1916/09781/5550270.pdf

Which might fit with the following births?
John (1917) https://www.irishgenealogy.ie/files/civil/birth_returns/births_1917/01301/1538259.pdf
Patrick (1920) https://www.irishgenealogy.ie/files/civil/birth_returns/births_1920/01205/1501205.pdf
James (1923) https://www.irishgenealogy.ie/files/civil/birth_returns/births_1923/01125/1470996.pdf

I can't find a Maureen anywhere but if the above are the correct family then possibly Maureen born less than 100 years ago so the birth is not online.

Strangely enough this thread is posted by Ajayne02 and earlier one under raggyroo  :-\
