Daniel Joseph Lavery

Hi,

Thank you for your message.

Do you have any other information that you can share, most importantly a specific place of origin in Ulster? Most Irish record sources- church records, land records, census records- are based on specific locations. Until you know a specific location within Ireland, preferably a parish or placename, it may be difficult to do anything more with these records.

Have you tried looking into Daniel?s emigration? Sometimes more information was given at the port of arrival rather than that of departure, so this may be a place to find more information and perhaps even a more specific place of origin! For immigration records in the US check the National Archives at http://www.archives.gov/research/immigration/

Have you tried looking for Lavery?s in the 1901 and 1911 census records? If you can find Daniel or Margaret or any family members it may give you a parish. You can search these here:

Remember to post as much information as you can with regard to the people you are researching. The more information you post, the more likely it is that one of our volunteers will be able to advise or assist you. Also include information concerning which sources you may have already used so others may further your search.

Please be patient - as our programme has only begun to rollout across the island of Ireland and volunteers in some areas may not yet be organized.

Kind regards,
