Reddy - Carrigbyrne & Murrintown.
« on: Monday 20 December 10 20:51 GMT (UK) »

My great grandmother was Margaret Sophia Reddy, born c. 1875 to Joseph Reddy and Sarah (Lacey ?).  She had sisters Mary (born c.1866), Sarah (born c.1879) and Bridget (born c.1883) and a brother Patrick (born c.1877) that I know of.  The family were living in the Murrintown area of Wexford when Margaret married James Dooley in 1902, but I have found LDS records which would suggest that some of Margaret’s older siblings were born in Carrigbyrne, County Wexford.

I’m looking for any information on Reddy’s in the areas of Carrigbyrne and Murrintown as I’ve no information prior to my great grandmother’s marriage.

Thanks for your time.

Hi RoisininIreland,

Happy New Year to you.

You may already have this information, but I'll post in just in case (every little bit helps):

On the 1901 Irish Census it appear that your Reddy’s are now living in House 4, Bargy Commons, Newcastle, Wexford and that your Margaret’s sister Mary has married a “Murphy” (Soldier) and has five children.  Sarah is still alive and living with daughters Bridget, Sarah and Mary Murphy.

Cheers,
