Swords, Kinsella and Burke of Mounthoward

[Trying hard2]

This is the headstone of my G Grandparents  Patrick and Margaret Burke in Monamolin Graveyard.
 Their daughter Margaret was my Granny, she lived in Ballygarrett and married 3 times(bless her).

Hi Trying Hard2

How is the Burke research going?

Parish Registers can be viewed and downloaded FREE at the National Library website.

Ballygarrett: http://registers.nli.ie/parishes/0574

Monamolin: http://registers.nli.ie/parishes/0602

Lots to view in these records

Good to hear from you again.

Family research has been on hold for a while now but, delighted
to see Church Records online now that should get us all going again.

How is your research going, it is hard to get the time sometimes.

I am looking for marriage cert of Michael Swords & Mary Kinsella M. around 1832 I believe if, someone has this I would be very grateful.

Thanks again.

M.

Hi M

Great to hear from you too. These Church Records has sharpened my interest again.

Before the Monamolin Register was started, all the records appear in the Kilmuckridge  (LITTER) Register. The Link is:

Kilmuckridge (Litter):  http://registers.nli.ie/parishes/0600

They can not be searched by name, but they can by date. So I used the Event Filter for MARRIAGES and Date Filter for 1832. It brought me straight to their marriage on page 75.

You will notice that their marriage is entered twice in the Register, on page 75 and 76, with the entry on p. 76 crossed out. Note the different witnesses.

I attach a copy of both entries.
We will now have to find all their children in the Baptisms, good hunting.

Have you had any luck with your Dempsey and Doyle in the Ballygarrett Registers? Was your Dempsey a Blacksmith? Dempseys I am looking for were Blacksmiths in Brickpark, Killenagh.

Hi Mogue

Thanks for the link and for getting in touch again.  Research into the Swords family has stalled a little over the last year or so.  I was aware that the church registers had been published online recently but hadn't got around to looking at them yet.

Regards

Rustico93 here. hello to all,great to see the renewed interest with new records!
My great grandmother Margaret Swords and Patrick Burkes marriage came as a
shock as it was supposedly not registered! And now we have her mother and fathers marriage also--so hopefully everybody is happy chasing dates and events.
Enjoy.

Hi Andy.

Any connection between the Peter Bell and Edith Swords who married in Dublin Area in 1935 and your Thomas Bell and Anastasia Swords who married in Gorey Area in 1913?

Hi Mogue

Thanks but I haven't come across any Peter Bells in my tree so far. All of my Bell ancestors hail from Gorey.

Hi all.

Images of Civil records of Births 1864-1915, Marriages 1882-1940, Deaths 1891-1965 are available free of charge from the Irish Government website:

https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/civil-search.jsp

Copies of these entries are available now with Marriages back to 1845 and Deaths back to 1864 to be added at a later date.

Lots of our Burke certs to see and download, mostly in the “Gorey Registration District”.

Here is a link to a post re Patrick Burke who registered 3 deaths the same day in 1918, including his wife Margaret Burke nee Swords.
