Can I suggest that you check out some free sites which might provide information on your family. The free site www.irishgenealogy.ie has Co. Cork church baptismal and marriage records for the north and east of Co. Cork. Use the Church Record Tab. Civil records start in 1864 and are available at the same site. Use the Civil Records Tab. Another free site is here http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/ where you can search for 1901 and 1911 census records.

Hiya Roger. Thank you for your reply. My mum has been using the sites you suggested and has gathered all the information she can but she has been unable to find any more information on my listed relatives. We have hit a brick wall.

The problem is there are too many people listed and I can't tell what info you have or don't have. For example, Peter Redmond, does your mother have the birth record, 1901 and 1911 censuses and the death record?

Mum has found birth certs for all of them we can't find parents or siblings. We have found Peter Redmond in the 1901 census. He is listed as a labourer at his bosses address.
