Hi OB,

There may well be a connection.   Thomas and Mary had a son called Patrick, he would have been too young at that time to witness a will, but maybe he was called after a brother of Thomas,  and that might be the witness to the will.

I will keep an eye out for your family names in my research.

Thanks for letting me know.

Angela.

Hi Shane,

Got Thomas Sinnott and Mary Doyle's wedding certificate today, thanks for all your help.

I now know that Mary was born in 1851, so she is not your Mary born in 1841.   I know that her father was Patrick Doyle, a labourer and I believe her mother was Eliza or Elizabeth Doyle.   One of the witnesses at the wedding was Sarah Doyle, possibly a sister.

Thanks for the help.

Angela.

Brilliant.   That has to be them.   Thanks so much.   I could not find a marriage for them.

That's great.   When I can get to Dublin and get that I will have even more information to go on.  Locally I can get birth certs from 1864, deaths from 1924 and marriages from 1920.   I have gotten some of those already.   I need to find time to get to Dublin to get the ones outside of that date.

I am really grateful for all your help.

Angela.

Wow, you are a fast worker.   You are obviously at this a lot longer than I am.  I am just starting off.   That is the correct Walter alright.   Thanks for all that help.

Hi Shane,

I know from familysearch.org that Eliza was born in August 1876, it doesn't give a more precise address than Ireland.  I hope to get the actual cert this week, as I can get that locally. That will give me a place of birth.  If it is not Bray it will be Wexford I think, as her father was from Wexford.

I am not sure about the post office connection, I was told that by a distant cousin, I think there is a shopping centre now where the post office was.   I have tried searching through the internet for connections between Doyles and the post office, but nothing. 

Will keep in touch.

Angela.

Hi Shane,

Thanks for the quick reply.   I know very little about Mary Doyle, as far as I know, Eliza was her first child, born about 1876, so I am guessing a marriage in the early 1870s is what I am looking for.   Have to wait for a day off work and a chance to search for wedding certificate.   I have had no luck on familysearch.org.

Will let you know if I find out anymore.

Thanks,

Angela.

Hi,

I'm new to this.  I found a post from you regarding Doyles of Bray.  I am trying to trace a Mary Doyle of Bray who married a Thomas Sinnott of Wexford. They had a daughter Eliza born 1876 and sons Walter and Patrick, possibly others.  I think the Doyles in question ran the post office in Bray, but I have nothing to confirm this.

I saw you had a Mary Doyle born 1841, thought there was a small chance this was the Mary I was looking for.   She was my great great grandmother.

Angela.
