I am researching my daughter-in-laws family SLATTERY and understand that her Grandfather Thomas was born in Lisheenaheilta Glenmaddy 1929. He married Ellen GLYNN
Please does anyone have any information on this family

Hi Kate,
According to www.findmypast.ie (a subscription site so unfortuantely I can't provide the link), a Thomas Slattery was born Apr-Jun 1929 in Glenmaddy, Galway. Mother's maiden name was Ward.
This marriage cert on www.irishgenealogy.ie is a perfect match for his parents, making them James Slattery and Margaret Ward. It also provides their father's names - Patrick Slattery and James Ward, which brings you back a generation further.
James Slattery in the 1901 & 1911 census:

I think this is Margaret Ward in the 1901 & 1911 census:

The best free resources for further research on this family would be www.irishgenealogy.ie, which has birth records (1864-1919), marriage records (1864-1944) and death records (1878-1969). the 1901 and 1911 census records are also available on http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/search/. FindMyPast also has a free record collection of Catholic parish baptisms and marriages which go back before 1864.
Hope some of this helps!
