Dublin / Re: Dublin South Union Workhouse Infirmary
« on: Friday 22 June 12 16:25 BST (UK)  »

I would like a lookup of the people in the Workhouse around the time of Bridget's birth as I cannot locate them either on any of the 1911 census' and cannot find a birth certifcate for Bridget throughout Ireland or England.

I am hoping she was born in the Workhouse so I will have a starting point.

Hello,

My grandmother always stated that she was born on James' Street in Dublin, but I sent away for 11 separate birth possibilities - all of which were not her so I was beginning to doubt her story until I found the Workhouse located on James' Street.  My grandmother's father is later found in a poor house in Birmingham, England, so this appears to be a huge possibility of the place my gradmother was born.

I am hoping someone could look up my grandmother and her family as I would love to break this brick wall!! LOL.

My grandmother was:
BRIDGET KATHLEEN O'HANLON (HANLON) b. October 1904.

Her father was:
JOHN JOSEPH O'HANLON (HANLON) b. ABT 1875

Her mother was:
AGNES LEAHY

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!  If the entries are in fact listed alphabetically, if there are other O'HANLON (HANLON'S) as well, I would like to see if Bridget's grandfather; FRANCIS and a possible ANNIE- an elusive sister of BRIDGET's were there as well.

Thank you,

Debbie

Kent Lookup Requests / Re: BRODERICK, JOHN WILLIAM BURIAL LOOKUP PLEASE
« on: Thursday 21 June 12 20:21 BST (UK)  »
With so many names, I did mix up JOHN WILLIAM BRODERICK AND ABIGAIL'S SON JAMES THOMAS BRODERICK.  It is not John but rather JAMES.

On JAMES THOMAS BRODERICK's birth certificate it lists his mother as: ABIGAIL BRODERICK formerly ALGAR.
It also lists JOHN WILLIAM BRODERICK as his father with an occupation as BALIFF.  Under the heading on the brith certifcate of Signature, description and residence of informant it lists F. Dawes, or F. Daves or Davis, Occupier Kingsbury.

the 1841 census with Abigail is bizzare as it states Abigail's name as ABIGAIL PEARCE.  We know for a fact that Abigail was the daughter of Agnes and James Algar, so the name has me puzzled as that was always her middle name - unless one of the dashes on the census meant "the same as above" ie: Algar as her surname.

But, the JOHN WILLIAM BRODERICK's really have me puzzled.

Kent Lookup Requests / BRODERICK, JOHN WILLIAM BURIAL LOOKUP PLEASE
« on: Thursday 21 June 12 14:00 BST (UK)  »
Hello,

I need help locating my elusive JOHN WILLIAM BRODERICK (b. abt 1814) but I am guessing at the birth as he supposedly had a son with ABIGAIL PEARCE ALGAR 23 October 1840 named JOHN THOMAS BRODERICK.  He is listed as the father on his birth certificate.  And is also listed as a Baliff.  However, it now looks as though he also had another son with the same name: JOHN WILLIAM BRODERICK in 1840 and who died in 1843.  But this son's mother was listed as JANE BRODERICK.  WIlliam Sr. is also listed on this Birth as being a Baliff.

I cannot locate JOHN WILLIAM BRODERICK jr or Sr. on the 1841 census.

I am wondering if JOHN WILLIAM BRODERICK (b. abt. 1814) is buried in Kent and if he did actually die before 1841.

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated!!
