Luke Doolin

[Walley]

Hi there,

Would any one know anything about where a Luke Doolin and his wife Jane Cullen were originally from, both born mid 1850.

And also about their son Patrick born 1887, he is on the 1901 census but not the 1911. Heard he may have gone to fight in WW1 in Flanders, but I can't find anything,

Thanks to you all
Walley

see previous thread for the census return mentioned for Luke :   Doolin

Place of birth for them both on the 1911 census is given as 'Dublin City', so probably the best place to search for their baptisms is on www.irishgenealogy.ie

Do you have the marriage cert details for Luke & Jane ?
If not then that might be the next logical step to research, as a cert will show fathers names and other details. From the 1911 census it appears that they are married about 31 year, so about 1870.

there are two letters from him at end of each enlistment asking for a pension it seems he got a 20% pension for - because of malaria

as i said 19 pages of mixed records very detailed several pages in poor condition would be worth getting and messin around with in a photo program im sure a lot of the writing would come up , messin around with the colour-contrast buttons.
the pages are seemingly from at least two mixed records , some of the writeing is poor but could be worked out if you took your time and zoomed in .

theres a family tree with patrick doolin and anne walsh with 6 kids whos i.d has been kept private , i left a message to look at this post and hopefully they will contact you here .
they didnt know patricks parents names so im sure ye can swap info .

Hi there,
 I don't really know anything about Luke Doolin, but someone left me a message on my Ancestry .co .uk site about Patrick Doolin, this if its the same one, was my Aunties Dad.
I do know he was born in Dublin and married Annie Walsh , my Aunts mother, as far as I know he was in the Royal Dublin Fusiliers and they had 6 children Julia, Bridget, Kathleen, Jimmy, Mary Margaret ( my Auntie Pat who's 86/87 yrs) and Richard. I think she told me he had a brother Charles and a sister Bridget that she knows of.
I will phone her or my cousin, to try and check some of the information thats been posted in reply to you.
Don't know if this is of any help, but will try to find out more for you, you could have a look at my tree on Ancestry, if you like.
All the best eita

Patrick has a service record on findmypast,,,he joined the army medical corps in 1901,,,served for a couple of years

[obbie]

goin over the record again i think the ww1 record is not for walley,s tree .
a different patrick doolin .
as gortonboy found a patrick doolin who joined the army medical corps in 1901 , the previous patrick was in south africa figten the boers .
as
patrick doolin wed anne walsh wed 13-4-13 dublin  ,
Dublin North marriage Apr - Jun 1913 Volume Number 2 Page Number 549
same details for both
this marriage would hopefully give fathers name as mothers name is clearly
julia on record ,
not jane as in walley,s case .

might be worth lookin for a jane doolin with children charles bridget (from eita,s post) margaret (from record) on 1901 census , as patrick was serving he wont be on it .

i apologise to all for the mix up of the two patrick doolins !
