Crossmolina Church Records

[Diski]

Hi Daxtman
Unfortunately, the time frame you gave is not covered in the church register-it gets very sparse from 1875 on. However, I do have have a John and Bridget (nee KELLY) giving birth to several children in the 1870's in Derra townland, and none of the children are the same as what you gave, so thats encouraging.
I will give you those name and dates but first I would like to know if they were still in Crossmolina in 1901 as well as 1911? I can look for more info in the census records to try and confirm if this is the same family as I have in the register.

Kerrill,

Morrison is not a Catholic name, and I did not find any in the Cath Register. I DO have Morrison in the Church of Ireland Register for Crossmolina and several other COI parishes in North Mayo and can not find any Francis Morrison births or marriages. Perhaps you should look for the births or marriages of the one of the first born children in Eng where the parents place of birth might be listed.
Also looked in the International Genealogical Index (aka IGI) and again found no Francis Morrison. Do you know his wifes maiden name?

Hi Diane,

Yes thats the one that I got but I can't find the Marriage ellen Gallagher to michael Kelly which I believe took place in Crossmolina circa 1902.

Do you have any access to these records.

Thanks for all the effort and hard work you are doing.

[Diski]

No, I don't have anything that 'current' for Crossmolina. I don't have the site address but the CR index is on-line. Perhaps under Ireland on the Rootschat site?

Sorry about that Diski
I read it again and I also got confused with the Anthony's LOL
I will ask my mother in law if she can give me some more details.
thanks
Trevor
