Adamson/Walker

[DarrenO]

Located both my great grandparents in the 1911 census, looking for help in going back further generations

Robert Walker born 1889? married Mary Murtha born 1883? married 1910?

John Adamson  born 1874? married Margaret Nugent born 1874? married 1897?

Any help either direct or by pointing me towards other online resources would be greatly appreciated

Regards

Hello DarrenO,
Welcome to Rootschat.

Have you tried the LDS web side?
www.familysearch.org

Or you might like to search this http://ifhf.brsgenealogy.com
You have to register before you can search for records, but to view it costs 5 euro. It can become very expensive if you are not sure of who your looking for.

I looked at the 1911 census and from Robert Walker and Mary Murtha i found theses on the above site.

Church Baptism Murtagh Mary 1882 Co. Westmeath 
 Church Baptism Murtagh Mary Joan 1882 Co. Westmeath 
 Church Baptism Murtagh Mary 1883 Co. Westmeath 
 Church Baptism Murtagh Mary 1883 Co. Westmeath 
 Church Baptism Murtagh Mary Teresa 1883 Co. Westmeath 
 Church Baptism Murtagh Mary 1884 Co. Westmeath 
 Church Baptism Murtagh Mary 1884 Co. Westmeath

This will get you going for a bit

Best of luck

You probably have enough information to apply for marriage certs for both of them. See the application form here: http://www.groireland.ie/apply_for_a_cert.htm

It will give their address at the time of marriage and their fathers' names. That should help sift through all the 'possibles' on IFHF.

thank you both for your prompt responses and the links, i've more to go on with now

Hi

Rekindling an old thread looking for assistance on a roadblock I still have.

This is specifically in relation to Margaret Nugent - She married John Adamson in January 1897, she is listed as full age so born prior to 1876. Her father is Patrick and her address as 43 New Street. Jane Nugent is a witness from 1 Clanbrassil St.

Recorded as being 28 y.o. and from Dublin in the 1901 census so estimated birth 1872/3 and 37 y.o. in 1911 census so esitmated birth 1873/4.

Unable to locate a birth at all, was there a percentage that were never civilly registered, any help in locating a church baptism would be very much appreciated.

Regards
Darren

What church did they marry in?
Women usually married in the same church they were baptised it.

Possible brother William and sister Teresa ?

Link to Civil Record of marriage on Jan 18 1897

1901 census for ADAMSON family

1911 census

Margaret and John's son Joseph Patrick was baptised in Harrington Street
His sponsors were Michael and Mary Anne SMYTH
A Michael SMYTH and Mary Anne NUGENT had at least two children baptised in the same church
with sponsors Jane NUGENT and William NUGENT
LINK to follow as these siblings and help locate the family

for example
Probably the SMYTH family in 1901 as SMITH LINK

and in 1911 LINK
Unfortunately Mary is now deceased but luckily Michael wrote how long they were married
This implies this is possibly them marrying in 1881 LINK showing Mary's parents as Patrick NUGENT and Mary GHEHAN - most likely GREHAN

could the priest have had trouble trying to spell the name Geoghegan as he spells it Ghegan
