McClusky, McCluskey, McCluskie etc
« on: Tuesday 13 January 09 22:00 GMT (UK) »
Hi

Looking for information about Anthony McCluskey, b. 24 June 1879, Annaghbeg, Dungannon, Tyrone.  His parents were Patrick McCluskey and Sarah McKeown.  Anthony married Helen McNab Easton 24 Jan 1919, Blackford, Perthshire, Scotland and he died 4 Dec 1935, Cottage Hospital, Dumfries, Scotland.  His grandfather may be Bernard McCluskey.  This is all I have on him.
Is there anyone who can help me in finding out more about his ancestors in Ireland. please.

Kind regards
Kirsten

Hello Kate and Otto

Thank you for your mails.  I already found Patrick's marriage cert and it only gives his father's name as Bernard.  Why is the mother not mentioned  after all she did give birth to Patrick!! ;).  I am afraid I am well and truely stuck as to getting further information.  Are there any census available that would give more information about the family and where would I find them??
Best
Kirsten

Fathers name only available on irish certs.
What age was groom (full = 21years or over)?
What was the residence at the time of the marriage?
If you post all the info from the marriage cert, someone should be able to help you further.

Irish marriage certificates have never listed the mother's name. First complete census for Ireland is 1901. Eventually 1911 and then 1901 census records for all Ireland will be on National Archives, Dublin website.
Away sorting out DNA matches... I may be gone for some time many years!
