Hello Beemack

I seem to have missed your post first time round so apologies for that. Thank you for the tip-off regarding "The Great War Forum".

I have limited access to Church of Ireland records. I can access the Wexford Town ones, however, so in the New Year I will have a look for the birth of your Elizabeth Sloane in Wexford Town.

Can you please remind me around the end of the first week in January if you have not heard back from me by then (there are two other individuals befor eyou in the queue).

Best wishes

Hello Beemack

I've just re-read your post and noticed that you are in Wexford yourself.

If you are in Wexford you can visit the Public Library in Redmond Square and look up the Wexford Town C of I records yourself. This is what I would do. You will need to phone to book a microfiche reader beforehand.

Good luck in your research

Wexford Library has on microfilm or microfiche...

4 or 5 sets of Wexford C of I parish records (one of which is Wexford Town).
All Wexford catholic parish records.
Wexford 1901 & 1911 census
Enniscorthy 1861 census
Griffith Valuation for the whole country but not the corresponding maps
Tithe Applotment for the whole country
Various Wexford papers, the oldest of which is Finn's Leinster Journal
Some set of old maps
Surviving burial extracts from old Wexford Town cemeteries (but not Crosstown)

Good luck with your research

Would you please have any information on Pte N Doyle  Royal Irish regiment who is buried in an unmarked grave in Skreen Cemetery. He died in ww1 and is not mentioned in any other reference not even where he lived. Would he be in the 1911 census? May I please ask that you look for me and I am happy to help you with my war dead dead databases.
 Kind regards.

Hi Enfield

Unfortunately I have not been able to get around to looking up any Wexford Cenus in the last couple of months due to family commitments, but when I get around to it again, I will certainly look at the 1911 Census for Screen for you.

Sorry about that

Hi

I am struggling with knowing where to look for information on magistrates records.  I will explain  - my dad was born in enniscorthy in 1932 and the family moved to Slaney St and then William St in Wexford Town The name of course would be Murphy.  My dad was the youngest of 9 .  The story goes he was sent away for 7 years for stealing he must have been 12 or 14 when that happened - there must be a record of that somewhere but who do I ask  (we also heard the crime was damage on the railway station) all seems very harsh but I guess it reflects the times.  My dad died 6 years ago and never spoke of it

I am sorry I am not sure what I can help you with in exchange I live in Wiltshire.

I think I just need a point in the right direction
