From records in the US my grandmother Florence O'Leary was born Dec 28 1887 in Chicago. The birth record shows her parents my great grandparents were born about 1850 in Fermoy County Cork Ireland.

Any help with birth records or baptisimal records of my great grandparents will be appreciated.

Thanks

    Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!

    Civil registration for births started in 1864.

    I searched the subscription site Roots Ireland for records in Fermoy RC parish and located an 1850 Daniel O'Leary record which is below. The only Mary Higgins record was in 1859.  I did not locate a marriage record.
