Hughes and Clinton -Dun Laoghaire

[Doylekelly]

Thank you so much for this information, it is definetly them. They named their first child Theresa...which is also her mothers name. and the second link you put up there , there is a John Joe....they named one of their kids John Joe. so its definetly them. Thanks a million, this is a great breakthrough for me. really appreciate it.

Back to the drawing board so.............

The only marriage I can find as near is a Christopher Clinton to a Teresa McMullen - is it possible that the marriage records for Christina Clinton may have had a mistranscription of her mother's maiden name ?

Christopher Clinton
Date Apr-May-Jun 1907
District Rathdown
Volume: 2 Page: 888

Tara,
yes you could be right cause Christinas mother name is Theresa ''Cullen'', quite possibly it is McMullen spelling/typo

Hi Folks,
I went out again today and the entry clearly reads Cullen but on the off chance that Christopher was also married from St. Michaels the very helpful Eddie from The GSI quickly found the marriage details of Christopher Clinton of 3 Crofton Avenue Kingstown to Teresa McMULLAN of 106 Lwr Georges Street Kingstown on the 16th June 1907 so well done Tara

Well spotted on the ‘Treza’ misspelling Tara, I would never have found it. It was more difficult to read the Clinton McMullan entry in the church register but a few definites’ were Arthur McMullan was a witness at the wedding of his brother Christopher as was a girl named Agnes C?? from York Road. Christopher’s parents were Michael and Maryanne nee Behan and Father Slevin performed the ceremony but I was unable to make out Mrs. McMullan’s maiden name.
The GSI office is situated under the George Monument at the East Pier and it is an Aladdin’s Cave for anyone who has ancestors from Kingstown / Dun Laoghaire. Hopefully ‘doylekelly’ will be able to pay a visit as she will more easily identify the names.
