Ireland / Re: BMD Records for Ireland
« on: Wednesday 12 February 25 17:53 GMT (UK)  »
I'm hoping someone can help with finding the birth record of someone born in Ireland.  His name was Christopher Slattery born around 1937 and his father is named as Thomas.  That's all the details I have.  I have contacted the Dublin archives and one birth record in Ennis around the same date didn't match with the father.  I'm thinking he may not have been born in Ireland and it's just a tale which has passed down in the family.

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Thanks all - will definitely look at that marriage in 1926 - its worth a try. I'm just confused why she used the name Churchill, unless of course this was the  name of the first children's father?

The date and place of birth have come from the census, the earliest census I can find her is on 1881 and she is then with William Thomas.  There are a lot of workhouse listings for her, Miriam and Alice starting from 1877.

Thank you all - that is the right person I didn't know about Elizabeth Thomas

Trying to find out details of an ancestor named Ellen Thomas/Churchill who I've found on a few census  records in Cardiff.  Born 1852 in Kilkenny.  Her first three children Alice, Meriam and Mary Ann were born Churchill and were baptised in the Workhouse in Cardiff.  So was Ellen ever a Churchill? I can't find a marriage between Ellen and William Thomas who she is named with on the census.  She did go on to have further children I'm presuming with William.  On Meriam's marriage certificate it names her father as Henry Churchill but did this man ever exist? I'm at a brick wall and no idea where to look for Ellen's origins. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks

Thank you everyone for your replies. With what you have all uncovered, I think that possibly the surname Toop was an adopted name which consequently means that he is no relation to me. 

Many thanks everyone again.

Hi,
I've recently enquired regarding the location of my Grandmother and Grandfather's ashes.  We found them in a garden of remembrance at our local Crematorium.
Along with their ashes we have found out that two other people with the same family surname are scattered in the same area.  It's such an unusual surname that its possible that they could be related in some way but cannot find any information regarding them except for wills and death records.  I wonder if anyone could possibly help with any further information regarding them please?
Albert Woldemar (Voldemar) Toop born 07/10/1905 died April 1971
Salme Rosalie Toop born 27/07/1898 possibly Reigate? died 27/10/1979
Any help would be much appreciated.
Many thanks
Andrea

Thank you both for your replies, I'm waiting for the marriage certificate so that I can gather some more clues.
