• Theresa:

  irishgenealogy.ie  only has civil births thru 1920. Do you know the names of the older siblings of Nora?

• Theresa:

  I read your message incorrectly. Here is the civil birth record for Norah  see fourth record   https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/birth_return...

  In the 1901 census, the family was in Shoodaun townland in Monivea civil parish  http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1901/Galway/Graigabbey/Shood...

  1911 census   http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1911/Galway/Graigabbey/Shood...

  I will look for additional records.

• Theresa:

  I looked on Roots Ireland and www.irishgenealogy.ie and did not find the marriage record.

  See second record James died in 1938   https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/deaths_retur...

  last record Sarah died in 1940  https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/deaths_retur...   Looks like one of her daughters married an O'Connor

  What other records do you need.

  I know quite a few of the O'Conners but haven't asked yet.
