Hi David

Thanks for the post. It's a possibility I guess but I've not had any success in finding a marriage for Edward Keating (Hatter) or a death register which would help pinpoint him. I don't live in Ireland so am reliant upon online resources which haven't indicated any further information as yet.

Where / how did you find the records for Mary Anne?

Hi Julie
Thanks for the replies they do show a resemblemce.
I've sent the pictures off to the Middlesbrough Catholic archivist to see if that helps and am waiting on a reply.

I'll update as soon as I hear back

Thanks again

Hi Ainsle and Ken

Thanks very much for taking the time to reply. I appreciate it.

I will follow the suggestions you make and although I'm aware lots of WW1 records have been destroyed, I'm still keep searching for some tiny clue to confirm his whereabouts and or service.

His residence when married just states Galway and I know there were many recruitment areas in Galway including Ballinasloe where his parents lived but he is still proving elusive.

I will ask on the Dublin site to see if anyone can do a Look Up for me in terms of the Absent Voters List.

Thanks again

Mike

World War One / Michael Casey WW1 records
« on: Tuesday 27 September 11 14:35 BST (UK)  »
Hi

Looking for help tracing Great Grandfather’s WW1 Military background.

He was born c1888 in Galway
He was married 13th June 1916 in Dublin.
His wedding certificate records his occupation as Soldier and his parents (Patrick and Mary) from Ballinasloe, Galway
I have a picture of him in uniform with the words “M Casey 1919 Dublin” on the back
The uniform and Cap badge appear to be “Service Corps”
He relocated to Liverpool with his wife Bridget and daughter Christina in 1929.
He died in Walton Hospital Liverpool 18th October 1930 aged 42

I haven’t been able to piece his military background together at all and am hoping somebody could help?

Does anyone have access to 1918 Absent Voters Lists for Dublin or know how I could access it?

Assuming he was eligible to enlist from 16 then I believe he could have joined up anytime from 1904 – 1916 is this of any use in tracking him down?

The fact he survived WW1, would this mean he would be eligible for a pension (or his wife eligible) if so would this be traceable in some way?

Any pointers would be greatly appreciated

Many Thanks

Mike

Hi Shane

Thanks again for taking the time to search. Looks like it wont be as easy as I thought.

The Saxon Place reference is a bit strange, haven't found any link at all, possibly recorded on his service record incorrectly?

Didn't come up with anything on the irishgenealogy site either although all the records may not have been transcribed I guess

Also the "Royal Longford Militia, if he was born in Dublin why would he have served with them?

I'm off on holiday for a week or so but plenty of food for thought?

Thanks again

Mike
