My great grandfather John Carr was born in Castlebar Co Mayo in1861,he was R.C. does anyone have any information about Carr's in the Castlebar area during the 1800s? I know it`s a long shot but you never know.
Thanks

Hi

Do you happen to know where Catherine Hopkins was born or the name of her parents?  I have a Mary Carr, Washington DC, who received  a small inheritance from her Uncle Thomas Hopkins in 1891

Thanks

No i don`t know where she was born,or anything about her,I have just got  details from a relative about my great grandfather`s birth cert. and his Mother`s maiden name  is Catherine Hopkins.If I find out anything about her I will let you know.
All the best.

First complete census for Ireland is 1901. For earlier dates only small fragments for a few areas survive.

That is a shame,the only other information i have is,
Marriages in Castlebar-aglish1841 to 1855.
1851 October 12.
Martin Carr to Catherine Hopkins.
Is there any way of finding out what church they were married in?without a marrage cert.
Thank you.

Civil registration of Catholic marriages began in 1864. What is the source of the information?
