Find Ancestors

Yeah Don't mind messaging at all just let me know which one to :-)

Unfortunately it's the typical Labourer :-(

Do you have an occupation for John - hoping it's a bit distinctive and not 'labourer' like most of my lot!
Also wondering if you are able to PM the image to one or more of us so we can have a look - sometimes several pairs of eyes can make sense of an image, worth a try.

n the 1901 irish census Iv found an Anne Riordan but she is already widowed at this stage so can't confirm anything but the eldest child on the cenus is John 23, then Lisbeth 17, Ellen 15, Gery 12, So there is a gap where Mary could be.
It says this Anne is 42.
I know this is defiantly guess work but she was the only Anne in Fermoy in that census (that I can see)

to be honest it looks like there is a y on the end and maybe starts with a B

Can you pick out any letters in her maiden name?

Does this look anything like?

Yes it's her parent's i'm after, family stories were she had siblings and that some emigrated to America and with a brother becoming a priest but I have no names to start with.
Her name was Mary Riordan, father John and mother Anne (can't read her maiden name on her birth certificate)
She married in 1898 to George Storey a solider in fermoy and had already moved with her daughter Annie and husband to England by the time of the 1901 census.
If there's anything else just ask :-)

You might find her baptism on

Sarah, I suggest you post more details about her so folks on here can have a go at finding her. Name and spouse name plus when & where she married would be a start.
I assume it's her parents you are looking for.
Have you tried finding the family on 1901 census, maybe using that address? You never know!

my 2nd great grandmother was born in Fermoy, Cork in 1881.
She was born on pound lane (i believe now known as devlin street)
I'm wanting to know what Catholic church's are round there so I can try and trace her baptism as her birth certificate is so hard to read.
This is a branch of the tree I feel I am totally stuck on, hopefully finding 1 piece of info will let me carry on in my search
Regards Sarah
