I haven't checked the registers, but transcripts suggest a child Bridget in 1863 (26 April), Pat in 1865 (16 January), John in 1866 (9 January), Ellen in 1868 (7 June), James in 1871 (1 October), Catherine in 1874 (23 January), and Edward in 1876 (28 May).

I was told that Thomas had siblings Margaret, Tessie, Eddie, Bill and Jimmy at least. No dates were given and I've looked all evening but haven't managed to unearth any you haven't listed.

... I found this girl Maria Doonegan born 1883 to Hugh and Anne McHugh

Good find, because a transcript of the church record for that 1904 marriage that I can see, identifies the parents for each party as:

- John McGoldrick and Bridget Darey;
- Hugh Doonegan and Anne McHugh.


Hi where is the marriage record that is naming Thomas’s mother as Bridget Darcey?

Hi, I'm looking for Thomas McGoldrick born abt 1882 in Co. Fermanagh. Thomas married Mary Donegan 14 nov 1904 in Derrylin RC Church, Lisnaskea and according to the marriage cert his father was John McGoldrick. Has anyone come across a Thomas McGoldrick that could help me get further back? Many thanks.

Around 2 years ago I tried to find Thomas’s grave and had no luck, even after emailing the parish offices, they had no record of his grave - the only Thomas McGoldrick was from Doon which I knew wasn’t him. My grandfather mentioned that he was buried in an unmarked grave and his wife Mary was buried in a different grave in Maguiresbridge. Then last year I decided to have another look for his grave and now he had a headstone (which looked very new), he’s buried in Derrylin with baby daughter Ellen and the Donegan family. I’m unsure who added the headstone or why he originally did not have one.

It's a transcription on the website 'RootsIreland', her surname transcribed as 'Darey'.
