Fox Born In Taghmon
« on: Wednesday 21 August 24 14:27 BST (UK) »
Hello, I am applying for my Grandads Birth certificate, in order to apply for an Irish Passport, but on the form it is asking for his mother's birth name and his father's birth name, otherwise I cannot apply for the document, the details I have of my grandad are these:
Michael Fox
DOB 4th May 1896
Taghmon
Wexford

My grandad moved to wales when he was young, and when he was 15, he lied about his age so that he could go to war, He had 2 children from 2 different marriages, the eldest born was Terrence John Fox, and the daughter was Theresa Fox (later Morgan)

I would be truly grateful if anyone could help me discovering his parents names.
Thank you so much
Regards
Michael

Sorry, didn't get notified of your reply, which I should have.

Anyway, the addresses on the marriage registration in 1875 are as follows:
For Patrick Fox, Sparrowsland
For Catherine Shea, Carrignaboola

Links for locations of the townlands:

For Sparrowsland
https://www.townlands.ie/wexford/bantry/clonmore/bree/sparrowsland/

For Carrignaboola, I can't see it on the list of official townlands. May be an alternate for Curraghnabola, which is an adjacent townland to Sparrowsland
https://www.townlands.ie/wexford/bantry/kilcowanmore/ballyhoge/curraghnabola/

Both these townlands are in the Catholic parish of Bree.
