« on: Friday 22 January 10 11:31 GMT (UK) »
I hope someone can help me!
i am trying to trace a Maurice Dowds (or his family), born around 1905.
Maurice was Born in Lurgan, Co. Armagh. His father name was Henry?
He had a step Sister Elizabeth Moore born 1909. Elizabeth married a John Mcshane in 1928, in Lurgan .

Maurice Dowds, came to Visit his Niece, my Mother Bernadette Fanning (nee Mcshane) in about 1978

That was quick.... you may have sent me on a new line to look into. as i understood, he was from Lurgan....... but i have contacted Lurgan RC Church, they have no record or his Baptism or of his half sister Elizabeth
