Hello.
I've tried, unsuccessfully, to get hold of Bridget Cullen's birth certificate from the GRO.
I know that she was an adult in 1906, and am assuming that this was 21 years in 1906?
Her father was Francis Cullen and he was a stonecutter.
Her residence at the time of her wedding was Woodside.
I have all this from her wedding certificate. (Church in Sandyford, registrar's district of Dundrum, Union of Rathdown, County of Dublin).
I know that she died in 1914 (18th March). It says aged 29 on the certificate.
The 1911 census has her age as 28.
I sent off for the birth certificate with the father's name and profession, 1885, Rathdown, Dublin, as the details. No luck. They checked the details from 1880 to 1890. Maybe I have the place wrong? However, when I looked up Bridget Cullen, Dublin, 1880 to 1890 on Ancestry.com, there are loads!!! Does anyone know whether I got no result as I had narrowed the search to Rathdown, or would County Dublin have been too vague for the GRO?
Thanks.
