I have connections to Devlin's but I'm unsure if they are the same as yours.  Tyrone, area is the best I can give without access to my tree.  The Devlin I can access is Ann Devlin b 1873 married and went to Pennsylvania.  I can also give you names of trees to look at if you have Ancestry.

Handwriting Deciphering & Recognition / Re: Bride surname
« on: Friday 02 January 26 09:48 GMT (UK)  »
I've been researching names that sound like Florendy and have come up with the most likely of Flourenty (French origins so far).

The other alternatives are:  Florenty, Corenty, Fleurenty, Flaurenty, Laureney, Laurency, Lorenty, Ferreny and Laurenste. 

There are very few records of this surname particularly in Britain in the 1700's.

Can anyone advise what other details would the church have (if any)?

Thank you for your reply.

I'm swaying more towards a Spanish sounding name due to my way of saying it.  Something similar to Fuentez.

As stated earlier I'm open to suggestions.

I would like to know your thoughts on the brides surname in the image.  It has been transcribed as Florendy.  There is no one  coming up other than the marriage record with that surname on family search.  I presently don't have access to ancestry.

I have tried all sorts of variations so any suggestions would be welcome.

I take it that this is your family history ?

Tara

I've looked today and to my surprise there was all of these replies!

Tara to answer your question - They are my relatives.  I think I may have tracked the Harper family to England but I can't provide details until I access Ancestry again.

I had never seen that write up - there are several.  My gut feeling about the Kelly family (Ned) interactions with ours is that there is a possibility that someone in that family boarded or rented with them or there is a connection to Ned's sister Grace.

I haven't delved into it for a while.  The Hetherton family remain such a mystery in Ireland.  I appreciate any info that can progress our family tree.

I gave you a free suggestion which is typical of how people did it in Australia until tech took over.
Our government has given us limited access to particular records that you are perhaps not aware of. 

Perhaps if you choose different wording as it appears as if you pounced after nearly 8 years to really rub it in that I have limited means.

Surely there must be a way of finding out without endless spending of money???
Unfortunately there is no way of getting this information without someone spending (or, if you are extremely lucky, someone already having spent) some money. And £1.50 is less than the cost of a cup of coffee or a half pint of beer.

Waiting 8 years to hammer your point has not sat well with me.  I have found other "free" means of finding out some details which will not be disclosed to you.  This does not include any of the replies to date.  I hope you have enjoyed yourself with your reply.  If there is a next time you attempt to reply in such a manner, I will be reporting it to the moderators.

Tyrone / Hetherton
« on: Wednesday 22 October 25 03:29 BST (UK)  »
Does anyone have any connection to the surname of Hetherton from the Tyrone area of Ireland in the early to mid 1800's?

i do realise the Hetherton could be a form of Hetherington. The records obtained so far all state Hetherton with Tyrone origins.

I have a John Hetherton born approx 1819 Tyrone  who marries approx 1840 to Susan Harper.

Any suggestions welcome.

Just the same as Scotland then.

Only it's a lot more expensive to get the actual certificate.

Your point is???  Picking the bones out of everything due to someone else's perception of affordability says a lot!
