Margaret Stewart Banbridge Area
« on: Tuesday 08 September 09 21:30 BST (UK) »
I am trying to find out about a Margaret Stewart, who had a son Joseph born 16th June 1883 in the Banbridge area.

Sorry, but I have no other details, apart from the fact that she was not married when he was born.

Thankyou,

Den

Stewart is a very common Ulster surname and the Christian name of Margret also so there's no way of knowing if this is the correct Margaret Stewart- she was less than 16 in June 1883 so there's a good chance this might not be the correct one.
In a case like this where there's no marriage record to get a townland, father's name, etc. there might be a church baptismal record with name of child's father/alleged father, etc.
Away sorting out DNA matches... I may be gone for some time many years!
