Title: Malley family castlebar mayo
Post by: lgardner2000 on Friday 25 July 25 18:00 BST (UK)
Hello.

Wondering if anyone can help me please.
I have found on the census from 1851 and 1861 in England that my relative was born around 1796 in Castlebar, Mayo.
His name is Michael Malley. I’m not sure when he came to England, but he got married in 1825 in Newport Hampshire and remind in Portsmouth for rest of his life.

Are there any records i can research to go back any further please.

Thanks
Lisa

The fact that Michael ended up in/near Portsmouth suggests he might have been a military man.
FindMyPast have these military service records that might be your man.

Not sure this is my man as he was serving in 1789 and he wasn’t born till 1796.

Are there any Baptist records ?
