Mayo / Directions Help
« on: Friday 23 September 11 19:43 BST (UK)  »
Hello, I was wondering if anyone who lives in Mayo or has been would be able to help me out.

I am hiring a car from Knock Airport and have never driven in Ireland before (Or any other country other than England  ;D) I was hoping someone could help me out to advise which is the easiest and perhaps less daunting route to get from Knock Airport to Keel (Achill Island).

The N59 or the N5?  ;D

Many thanks in advance

So I went back to the begin and started from scratch, seem's I have managed to completely mess up on this along the line!!

Anthony Gielty is not the family I should of been searching for it is, John and Mary (Malley) Gielty. (Keel)
It just goes to show how easy it is and why it is important to make sure every detail is correct other wise you end up like me like a dog chasing it's own tail!!

On the familysearch.org website I found records for John Gielty born 1875 and died 1956. I pieced this up as I remembered that John Junior's father was alive when he got married. so this ruled out finding a death record after 1960. I knew he was around on the 1911 census and also had his youngest child in 1927. so I looked between 1927 and 1960 for a death record and came up with this one.

I have sent off for his death record and should be receiving it soon to gain confirmation.
I can only assume at the moment that another John Gielty I found is John Seniors father born, 1844, died, 1924.

I came across this website on the Mayo links topic;
http://interment.net/data/ireland/mayo/sleivemore/sleivemore.htm

I was wondering if this would be the graveyard they would be buried in if they lived in Keel and if so, on this record It lists a few "Cielty"s but I wonder if its a mistake and someone has read the surname wrong and if so, is this my John Gielty I am looking for?

Cielty, John, d. 2 Mar 1924, age: 78yr, Husband of Mary
Cielty (O'Malley), Mary, d. 26 May 1911, age: 61yr, Husband of John

This would of made him born 1846 though. Only two years out...

Ireland / The name 'Nappy'
« on: Monday 05 September 11 18:06 BST (UK)  »
Hi, I was wondering if the name Nappy is short for anything ? As I have found it on a Irish 1911 census researching ancestors and can't seem to find a birth record in that name.

Many thanks

Well I have found a birth record on rootsireland.ie for a, Mary Gielty, no birth year is given, address ; slievemore. Father; Anthony Gielty and Mother; Anne Burke.

I have two Anthony Gielty's in my tree and I am unsure who's child it is. Anthony Gielty b.1861 married Mary O'Malley and they had a child called mary (plus 8 other children) but I just thought her parents would be the same as the others.

Is it possible this record I found means she is illigitimate?
