Adams/Keane/Stein of Limerick

[Diggie]

Hi

Have you looked at the  Registers of Electors at Limerick City Library? A quick look for the 1885 register listed a John Adams  ( I know names slightly different) at Emmet place in Limerick. There are other registers for other years and also a link to the Limerick Archives for other registers.

Find them at:http://www.limerickcity.ie/Library/LocalStudies/RegistersofElectors/


I found these registers  extremely helpful  and  gained a lot of new leads

best of luck

Thanks for that Diggie, the link led to more links that may be of help. Was in Limerick 2 months ago for a genealogy day and came home empty handed on family tree info. First time in Limerick and highly impressed with the city and planning to head down again with more time to explore and follow up at St Mary's COI cathedral which holds the records of St Munchians

Hello,

I have also come across the same mystery.

William Adams was my great grandfather, I’ve been digging into the family line and through his marriage certificate to Mary Keane I can also see William has listed his father as John Stein but I can’t find any more records, so hoping I can get information through the chat.

Hi Kerry Adams

Only spotted your post tonight

In 1974 my mother died. In 1994 twenty years later we discovered by accident her parents ( grandparents) were not her biological parents. In 2017, thanks to DNA I pinned down that a Matilda Adams Darlington was the biological mother . Have gathered a lot of info since and no problem sharing.
I know the name William was followed through so assume you are the daughter of a William or a child of a William.

I live in Dublin
