Limerick / Re: Hartigan Family. Croom, Glin and later Battersea area (London)

Welcome to RootsChat!

As your mother was born after 1924, her birth certificate will not be available to view on irishgenealogy.ie.

I can see that a John Hartigan of Ballyguiltenane married Bridget Cleary on 12th February 1918 in Glin, Limerick:

Children born to this couple up to 1924 include:
- Daniel (1919)
- Richard (1920)
- Mary (1921)
- Patrick (1924)

Welcome to RootsChat!

For reference, here is the marriage certificate:
https://www.irishgenealogy.ie/files/civil/marriage_returns/marriages_1938/08887/5214160.pdf

Michael Jr. is a shopkeeper from Dunmore, and his father is a farmer. One of the witnesses is a Patrick Lyons.

He married Mary Grehan from Glenamaddy in 1938. They had 11 children.
I’m trying to find the dates of his children’s birth plus his parents and grandparents.

Civil records of births in Ireland have only been released up to 1924, so the years his children were born would not be covered. Furthermore, RootsChat only deals with deceased people; discussions of living people are not allowed. I imagine quite a few of his children are still alive.

He was born in 1904 in Dunmore

Where did you get this information? Is his year of birth estimated from his death record?

Looking for a Michael Lyons of around the right age in Dunmore in the relevant time period leads only to this one:
https://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1911/Galway/Dunmore__North/Gortnalea/475226/

Father Michael is a farmer, he has a brother called Patrick and he is residing in Dunmore. However, his year of birth is 1902:
https://www.irishgenealogy.ie/files/civil/birth_returns/births_1902/01907/1740070.pdf

His mother is Bridget Ratigan/Rhatican/Ratican.

Here is the marriage of the parents:

Montgomeryshire Lookup Requests / Re: Lloyd parents
« on: Sunday 24 August 25 13:55 BST (UK)  »
Possible

Edward Lloyd married Elizabeth Morgan 4 February 1824 at Newtown

Was about to suggest this. William, Edward and Elizabeth's youngest son on the census, was born in post-civil registration c.1842, and here are the possible birth certificates for him +/- 2 years in Newtown:

   LLOYD, WILLIAM       MORGANS 
GRO Reference: 1842  M Quarter in NEWTOWN AND LLANIDLOES  Volume 27  Page 141
   LLOYD, WILLIAM       SIER 
GRO Reference: 1843  J Quarter in NEWTOWN AND LLANIDLOES  Volume 27  Page 140
   LLOYD, WILLIAM       MORGANS

Montgomeryshire Lookup Requests / Re: Lloyd parents

On both children's baptism record, their father, Edward, is noted as being a 'hattier.'

This lines up with this 1841 census:
https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:M77C-76M?

With Edward having the same occupation when looking at the image.

The family is still in Newtown in 1851:
https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:SGDS-2H8?lang=en

He is born c.1798 in Berriew, Montgomeryshire. Elizabeth is born c.1802 in Newtown.

Possible marriage between a "Harbert Read" and "Mary Anna Thoms" in Newport in 1852. Can't currently find a parish register entry to confirm that these 2 married each other and not the other possible names on the civil registration index.

There's a Mary Ann Toms, daughter of Philip and Mary Ann, who is down on the 1851 census as being born in Ilfracombe, Devon in 1834. From at least 1841, the family is living in St Woollos, Newport. She also had a sister called Thirza.

Birth registration for the 1862 John has mother's maiden name blank:

REED, JOHN  HENRY     - 
GRO Reference: 1862  S Quarter in NEWPORT  Volume 11A  Page 166


Forgot John was born Swansea; jorose posted the correct one:

READ, JOHN  HENRY     TOMS 
GRO Reference: 1862  M Quarter in SWANSEA  Volume 11A  Page 502

John's sister Thirza has mother's maiden name 'Toms':

REED, THIRZA  JANE     TOMS 
GRO Reference: 1864  S Quarter in NEWPORT  Volume 11A  Page 168

Thirza's parents on her baptism are also Herbert & Mary Hannah of Dolphin Street.

On the 1881 census with her 2 children, Mary is 'Mary H.' and born in Newport.

It looks like James' mill burned down in 1759:
