  • Do you know what religious denomination your Davis/Delaney family were ?

    I'm not seeing any sign of baptisms to the couple, or a marriage, in the records available online. Catholic records have good coverage with most parishes filmed and indexed, but there are Catholic parishes, particularly in Rural areas, which do not have records back to the early 1800s. Records for Church of Ireland and other protestant denominations are not as well covered online at the moment, and there's also the problem of record survival when it comes to Church of Ireland historic records..

    Could there be any clues for George wherever he ended up that might help - e.g. death notices, census returns, death or marriage certs etc ?
    Do you know if Samuel and/or Mary stayed in Ireland or emigrated ?
