Hi Les,
You could try the Birkenhead History Society via this link. If anyone can help, I'm sure they can. http://www.birkenheadhistorysociety.org.uk/index.html
Good luck!

Wicklow / Re: Byrne Family History
« on: Sunday 27 April 08 19:13 BST (UK)  »
Hi. I'm looking for a Byrne who married Mary Roche(/Roach/Roach) and had a daughter Maria Byrne born c1857 in Wicklow. Mary was widowed and left Ireland with Maria. They came to Birkenhead, Cheshire, where Mary remarried. Maria named her stepfather on her marriage cert so I don't know her real father's first name. Mary's father was "John Roche, shoemaker."
Cheers, Trish

Wicklow / Re: Thomas Dowling Lookup request

Hi Brian,
My great grandmother was Eliza Dowling born c1850, believedly in Carlow. Her father's name was Thomas Dowling but on some records the name appears as Dooling or Doolan. She married Joseph Quinn of Castledermot, but there is believed to have been a Baltinglass connection with them. You can see from the map how close Baltinglass, Carlow and Davidstown are. Sorry for being so vague but I've been trying to find out about the Dowlings for some time now to no avail. Trish.

Carlow / Re: Connections to DOWLINGs

Hi, my great great grandmother was Eliza (Elizabeth) Dowling. She eloped with my great, great grandfather, Joseph Quinn, a farmer's son from Davidstown, Carlow. Circa  1870/75. They came to Birkenhead, Merseyside (across the river from Liverpool.) Could this be the same Dowling family? Trish
