  • Hi,
    n Margaret's marriage, does it state her fathers name?
    That would be a great help.
    Births are up to 1922ish as today in Irish Genealogy site.
    There are two births in another site for Margaret Garvey 1923 one in the April  and the other in July, both in Kilrush, which is the registration district for Kilkee.
    If you have the fathers name then we could get the marriage of her parents.
    There are 41 Garvey marriages in Kilrush, just a matter of search to find the fathers name.

    Bit confused here............ you say
    either locate patrica or find where her mother is buried I would be very grateful.

    Is it Magaret's grave you are looking for?        .....if it is we would need her married name.
    Patrica.......we would have to know her surname and did she leave Australia?    
    In 1911 Census there is only one Garvey family living or returned their Census information in Kilkee.
    In 1901 there are a lot more Garvey people.

  • Margot,

    Parents were John Garvey and Catherine McDonnell.

    Married Feb. 10, 1914, Kilrush. Witnesses: Michael Garvey, Anne Tubridy.

    Their daughter, Margaret is believed to have been married to an Ashmore.

    Thank you,

    John M Dooley
