Catherine Delaney born 1900
« on: Monday 01 June 09 05:37 BST (UK) »
Catherine Delaney was born 1900 in Dublin.  She had a sister Bridget.  They had some connection with a shoe shop or shoe repair shop.  There may be a connection to the commercial space at 62 Upper O'Connell Street before Antonio Senezio opened the Pillar Ice Cream Parlour there in 1954.  (She named her first son born in 1921 "Patrick".  What are your suggestions on finding her family roots?

Have you found Catherine and sister Bridget (and hopefully rest of their family) in 1911 census- it's online (free):
www.census.nationalarchives.ie/search

You can also search index to civil registrations for her birth and with the details from the index order a birth certificate which will show her exact place and date of birth and names of both parents (unless illegitimate in which case her father's name won't be listed).
