This is amazing - you are getting this so fast - I only just got the info on their marriage cert  following your guidelines earlier- the children you have found are a bonus. I am so thankful.

Thanks Shane, I really appreciate this  First time I will have been to Ireland to look into this and I want to make the most of the two days. Cheers.

I have the birth certificate of my grandmother, Catherine Flanagan which shows her mother as Maria Eustace, her father as William Flanagan, watchmaker in  1877. Birth registered in district Kilcullen, superintendant registrar's district of Naas.  Which church records should I go to, to search for possible  death entries for these great grandparents? I will be in Kildare on Wednesday this week so any suggestions would be helpful.  I know Catherine was one of 22 children but only have the names, Owen, Charlotte and Patrick as some brothers and sisters.  How do I find her siblings and their birth records. I know they were Catholic. Does anyone know of the Eustace family in Kildare which may relate here?

Thanks to you both so far.  I will get onto your suggestions and come back with more info, hopefully.  Thanks again.

Thank you.  There were definitely eight children from this marriage: Marie, Nancy, Kit (Catherine), Eileen, Chris, Ellen, Agnes, John.  From his first marriage he had Thomas and Elizabeth. Forgive my ignorance but as they were RC would the Civil register show his first marriage or would it just be in the church records.?  Also I am really pleased you found the marriage in Salford since this could mean he was likely buried here. It must have been after my mother was born, 1925, I know Kate is buried in the UK.  Would the Salford marriage entry show his occupation and address and does it name a church? If I can get a copy of the marriage certificate would it name his parents and give his age. Is this the first thing I need to do? I appreciate this help very much. Thank you .
